what year is your car... did you just fill up gas when this happened? if so its a common issue with the gas cap not being tight and triggering the check engine light. When check engine light comes on... vsa and traction turns on as well. As long the car feels fine as of nothing is wrong, its ok to drive it.

thats pops up under any cel. just take your car to a local autoparts store ask them to check the code. it could be one of 100 things. depending on what other light came on with it helps you narrow it down. jut dont drive crazy as the traction control is off.

Check VSC comes on any time the check engine light is on, since the car automatically turns off VSC when the CEL is on. Other than checking for a loose gas cap, it's silly to try to guess at what might be causing the check engine light to illuminate. I'm not sure about Israel, but in the US many auto parts stores will read your codes for free. An OBD-II code reader is fairly inexpensive, and something you might want to buy for your toolkit. If not, bring it to a service center.
