Hey ya,

Was on my way home from work today and out of the blue my CEL/VSC light came on (VSC blinking)..I was not going at a rapid speed in fact I had just pulled from a light change and there was traffic so I was at slow speeds 15-25 max

Dealer was closed so I could not call the service dept but will be there by the time they open tomorrow.... (hope its covered under my extended warranty whatever it is)

I know I had seen some topics in the past of the VSC coming on but no CEL I have both...just wondering if anyone knows what it can be??

*Edit*

My car has no mods on it engine is bone stock....oil changed when required and had no issues til now.... also its at around 51k

What year is your car? I know the 08s face possible coil pack failure.

My wifes RX350 did the same thing. I pulled the code only to be a loose gas cap lol. Not saying this will be your case but hopefully is something this simple.

That would be odd I filled up the tank on Tuesday...imma check that out too although I do think I would have gotten it sooner if it was that....

VSC points to a wheel speed sensor. That would be my first guess.

Ok so just got home from the stealership and this is the out come:

Error Code P0031 AF Sensor Bank 1 sensor 1.... so yea my O2 sensor is gone

now my question is this: every time the CEL is popped does the VSC automatically come off as well,kinda retarded if thats the case no?? I mean what does my O2 sensor have to do with Vehicle Stability??

anyways its covered by warranty....thank goodness I opted for the 7yr/100k still had to pay a percentage of the diagnostics charge but all good....I got the car back dealer said its ok to drive and they will call me when the part comes in...keep ya posted....
