Agh!!! Help! Cel And Tcs Lights On!!!

hey guys, i have a 99 TL and i just moved from sacramento, ca to boulder, CO. car ran like a top all the way to elko, NV. started it the next morning, everything fine. Once i hit the salt flats in UT the TCS and the CEL came on. i had to drive the rest of the trip with the lights on (i know, i know....but i had no choice). the car ran fine to me but i am curious if you guys think that the major change in altitude could be my problem here? i know without pulling the code its really hard to say, but any input at this point would be greatly appreciated!!! thanks in advance

Yea with out a code it could be many things. The tcs light will come on when the check engine light does for alot of things. Keep a eye on it and if it comes on again then get us a code

May be the Egr insufficant flow code. Common code that brings those lights on

I believe some years had it up to 80k. (not positive) Call your dealer to find out
