Experiencing low RPM at start the when on motion the RPM goes below 60RPM and after some movement the car will start vibrating then flickering of oil light. During idle or braking, the oil light flickering is more visible and vibrating of the car but when pedaling everything seems normal.

Hello, first thing would be to check the level and condition of the engine oil. If it looks fine then we will need to see if there are any codes in the memory. If you don't have a scan tool, any auto parts store will scan for free or you can order one from Amazon for about $20.
