aiyak. first thing to do when getting a used car is to change engine oil, gearbox oil and filters and then check the all the belts.

After I get the car I had chg the engine oil. Belt still ok. They have writing say until what mileage only chg. Gear oil also,next service will chg since haven't reach the mileage.

Now the car is ok. Juz those minor issue like those sensor thing rosak.

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.
 
Wira Update.

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.

Belts, especially timing belt which is enclosed need to change by mileage or period which ever comes first, like engine oil 10k km or 6 months.
I had one belt snap on me, car bought 2nd hand had 40k km mileage, 4 years old. Even my mechanic say can change at 60k km. Well, before reaching 50k km and already passed 5 years it snapped, therefore I think 5 years is more then enough if on low mileage.......
