Hi,
My Trac light has been turning on a few minutes after starting off even though it wasn't really being called to action.
Finally I had it diagnosed and they told me it is a Code 43 - ABS and Trac malfunction. Something about the accumulator leaking and something about a hose and flushing the brakes.
The total cost to fix this would be $1,000 USD or 632.524 GBP, which I cannot afford to do at the moment.
I have several questions:
1. Should I be driving around with this problem? Could my brakes fail?
2. Should I just press the Trac Off button until I get it fixed?
3. Could I leave it unfixed indefinitely?
4. Should I have Lexus fix it or should I try to find another mechanic who might do it cheaper?
Thanks, Victor

It is way out of warranty.
It is a 1993 with 80,000 miles.
