Hi guys,

Sometimes its hard to start, turn the keys and it locks at the injection as I can see the sign on the dashboard. Then it will sound like a motor boat engine. Whats wrong? Sparkplugs needs replacement?

Thanks.

heard from a mech, when u change engine oil .. go and get a small bottle of oil (lupa the brand name), pour that in first and then only your engine oil, start the car better .. :huh:

Either the battery is weak, spark plugs worn, or the fuel filter is clogged.
Yup..

To add (More major problem) :
- Igition Coil got problem
- Starter Motor got problem

But do check on the Battery and Spark PLugs.. they are the usual problem.
