Anyway, all 3 times noticed hard cranking when starting the car, took longer time than usual.. and pls DONT DOUBT this symptom/ problem, change immediately while u still can start/drive the car to any shop to change when u notice this before it dies on u.. :) My 2nd time was I keep on delaying for 2 - 3 days until it died.. hehe..

Mine is the default battery that came with the car when I first bought it and it is 2 yrs old already. My car still starts without any problem in the morning. Reason for asking is I may be going in to Malaysia so pretty troublesome if battery fails halfway.

Best to check your battery first. May not need to change.

yup. do check and see whether the voltage or amperage is weak when the engine is off.

My Latio unable to start twice in less than 3 years time. Each time was caused by battery sudden defective, they all original batteries from TCM. So, on my Latio records, the battery did not last 18 months. Next time, I will proactive change the battery before 18 months.
Anyway when the battery fail, you still have to change with loss of time and get extra stress!
