I have a problem on my car right now, the car almost died out on me when I pushed the Throttle it was like it was running really rich then fired up again as normal ,,,, but my Check Engine Light was on ,,, my VSC light was on and my VSC OFF light was on as well...

I took my car to the dealer today and they said they had the same problem with 4 or 5 cars in the last nine months LS400 LS430 and 2 GS400's .......

Just wanted you to all know up from or this problem, they ordered a new Throttle sensor and would be here by Tuesday hopefuly.

Pretty much all the new 2003 line up need to replace all the Throttle body. The actuator is malfunction.
