When was the last battery change? Oil change? Last maintenance done?

Good morning, sir.

My 2005 1.8 Ghia Ford Focus AT Duratech(gasoline) is experiencing hiccups. Yung parang kumakadyot while stepping on the breaks to control to speed on a slow moving traffic. But once mabilis na ang takbo, wala naman pong problems. I get to experience the 'kadyot' specially doing reverse and in parking situations.

Last week, this is what I experienced on my way home. On a slow moving traffic, engaged to D. Stepping on the breaks to control the speed, then the engine experiences roughness then the LCD on the dashboard flashes 'Engine Systems Fault.' So I turned-off the engine. When I started it, ok na po ulit. It's been a week na po since that incident. Hindi pa po na-uulit.

I was also informed by the people at Ford BGC that wala raw fuel filter ang sasakyan ko. But they said, there's a fuel filter for the diesel engine ones. I was thinking baka kasi yun po ang problem.

Car history:
Bought it 2nd Hand.
Never experienced car tuning services since purchase.

What are your thoughts, sir?

Basic muna. Palit sparkplug, airfilter, fuelfilter, oil filter same time with change oil and clean map sensor then observe.

Thank you, sir.

So it does really need a tune up. Sabi sa casa wala daw siyang fuel filter. So normally how long should a tune up take? Can you refer me to a shop that has a good reputation to do car tune-ups? I just had a engine oil change last month. ATF replaced just last year. Mga magkano po kaya ang aabutin dun sa basic tune-up?
