new warning light help

I let the guy at Advance Auto run the code and he says I need to check for a vacuum leak...but didnt know where to look for it...

This is an '06 xB with 83K on the clock, auto trans.

I have THREE lights that stay on on the dash all the time.

Check Engine
VSC
Trac Off

xB runs and drives normally, EXCEPT when driving in rain...be prepared it will pull you off the road ina heartbeat if you hit water on the road...also, the front left tires seems to be wearing faster than the front right(may be my imagination)...I peeled out on gravel and it spun both front tires equally...

Ideas? other than go to my Toyota dealer, they want $53 just to plug it in...

open the hood and look for any cracked hoses...thats your first place to look.
Next look for cracks along the air duct housing and box.

feel around for a vaccum leak with your hands and post the actual code
