VSC, Trac

Got my oil changed yesterday, now I'm getting a VSC indicator, Check Engine Light, and my Trac indicator stays on. I even pressed the trace on/off bottom and nothing. Any ideas?

Have you tried resetting the whole car?
(keep the battery negative off for around 10 minutes)

Went to the Stealership and they said my catalytic converter was out. Cost me $1700.

You said it! I almost traded it while I was at the dealer! I just couldn't spend $48k on a GS when I have a 460L with everything.

VSC, Chk Eng, Trac off warning lights...

It happened to my 05 LS 430 few weeks ago.

The garage technician used a computer to search for the faulty component.

Turned out to be 1 of the 4 O2 sensors! So, we replaced a pair.
