I know there have been many posts on the "check VSC" warning light. But most of them are older and I am hoping I can get some more current insight...
I started and stopped my (2007) IS250 the other day and noticed a shudder. Upon starting it up the next day the car almost stalled and the check VSC, traction control and Engine lights came on. It has been running fine since but the lights still come on.
I am curious if there are any recalls (given all the discussion on this) and what might be causing it. Or more importantly if there are any quick fixes before I shell out to a dealer. It seems pretty hit and miss but any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
UPDATE:
Found this I believe in this forum and it fixed the problem for now... All good!
1) Drive car to full operating temperature. You want to evaluate the difference resetting the computer makes on the response, so you want to leave everything else constant - such as engine temp. Pay attention to any idle vibration you feel in gear.
2) Power off, and remove the negative battery cable (10mm socket required). Leave off for 10 minutes or so. I discharged the system completely by pressing the brake pedal.
3) Reconnect negative battery cable
4) Restart and drive.
