Funny: I was pretty low on fuel when this happened, and this morning, with the VSC light and the engine warning still on, I filled up on gasoline. The lights stayed on, but when I turned off the car and restarted it, the lights are gone. I have a suspecion that it has to do with some possible water in the fuel tank. That would then go through the system when the fuel level is low, causing one fo the exhaust sensors to go off. Then when I put in fuel, there is no problem. Can this be the case? KB

Hi, On my otherwise trusty RX300/'04, the Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) and the engine warning lights just came on when I turned on the car this afternoon. Nothing else, just stays on when I turn on the car. In the manual it says that it possible has to do with the traction control, or the braking, and that I should see a Lexus garage. However, the nearest Lexus garage is 100km away, and the warranty just expired. So, what should I do, what can this warning mean, and is there a way for me to self-diagnose? TIA, KB

They are all good suggestions, but I would almost rather just pull out the up/down switch, disconnect the cables, and put it back. Then when she is big enough, reverse the change. Wonder if that would work?

Hi, I have a question regarding the child protection features of the RX: I have set the child lock on the left rear door. My 5-year old sits there, and we want to make sure she stays in the car ;) Also, I have the electric windows up/down locked for all passengers. This is a bit annoying, and I was wondering if it is possible to set it so all other passengers can control their own windows, but not my 5-year old? Any suggestions are approciated. Regards, KB
