Was driving home today from work and went down a dip in a country road at about 50mph and up came a fault saying 'CHECK VSC' and the car went into limp mode about 15mins later.
Google tells me this is Vehicle Stability Control that helps regulate your brakes/shocks during emergency procedures.
It also tells me the fault might not be the VSC itself but an engine fault and the VSC is affected by the safe mode kicking in.
People saying anything from catalytic convertor faults to ECU replacement to oxygen sensor faults to one guy who needed a new engine. I hope its not that, I just did that on my last car which was a total nightmare.
Has anyone come across this issue before?
I only bought the car two months ago and do have some cheap ass warranty in place which covers, well, not much.
The dealer I bought it off advised me to go and get it checked out somewhere. (he has a garage beside his dealership)
What sh1t after-care.
