2001 lexus gs300 rough idling and shutting off
My 2001 lexus gs300 vsc,vsc off and engine light is on. When car is idling the car runs rough shakes and cuts of.But drives perfectly fine when driving above 2 rpms and at normal speeds. I got 2 oxygen sensors.

You need to adjust your Throttle Position Sensor (TPS). It's located right in front of your throttle body (TB). Take a multi-meter and adjust to .70, I believe. Search TPS Adjustment on this forum if you need a step by step on this. I started a thread on this topic in the past.
It could also just need maintenance such as a good cleaning of your TB. I read another thread where the guy had water in his gas tank and purchased an additive to get rid of the water in his lines and it worked, no more stalling and increases power.
