how's the idling? cold start does the rpm rise? when u shift from P to R is there any lag when engaging? then from N to D is the same?

The idling is ok.
Cold start Rpm is around 1.5k but will drop to below 1k once is warm up
P to R & N to D all are ok.
then can rule out torque converter and idle speed control unit. i'm too lazy to go through previous pages, your o2 sensor is ok right? hopefully the shop that service the tb can find the problem.

worse case scenario u might need to change throttle body. recon ones are around RM320-ish. used one would be below RM200. if your idle control unit is working fine, then u can just get the used one.

Dont worry, a wira is very cheap to repair.
Plus, its normal for old car to 'demand' this and that. Some people just dispose their old car to avoid getting headache to solve all the issues but when u bring out a calculator u will find out that u can save a lot on repairing this and that rather than paying fixed consistant monthly installment on new car.

After the checking is the Cam & crank sensor issue.
After changing it no more rpm laggy. The car now is running smooth. And also the Fuel filter.
