i kena like this oledi. to the best of my experiences, its a sign of the headgasket is failling.. compression loss when ur temps up then the cyld head bengkok abit making all the valve seated improperly and maybe ur block or piston kembang. go for compression test.. when its hot ur piston jammed a bit leh.. give a moment then it'll crank.. check then if its running idle.. are u toping up water to ur radtor?

If you can hear starter solenoid clicking but crankshaft does not rotate. Possible dirty carbon contacts on starter and will cause weak torque. Hot engine harder for the starter to rotate the crankshaft.

Last week, my car's aircond could not work even when I turned it on. There is the sound from the aircond but no air is blowing out. After around like an hour, i started the car again and the aircond worked.

The next day when I was driving the car, I revved the car until 5000rpm and exactly when it reaches 5000rpm, a loud rubber screeching sound is coming out from the engine. I tried doing it for 2 or 3 times and the same thing happens. Later when I stopped my car, I rev the engine again...
