VSA malfunction
VSA malfunction
During the summer, the oddest thing happen while I was driving my TL. I was going onto the freeway, I decided to link my phone through the steering wheel bluetooth. I pushed the button and "tried" to call my sister. It didn't recognize the number but then i start hearing a buzzing noise while i accelerated so i pressed cancel on the call. So yeah I finally got onto the freeway, like 5 miles from my exit I start hearing the buzzing noise. All of a sudden when I was in the fast lane i was going like 75mph and my car starts slowing down. (no i wasnt pressing the brake) The VSA light came on and the engine light came on as well. So i started switching lanes to the furtherest right lane.. by the time i got to the right lane i was going like 45mph.. (thank god there was a slow truck in front of me.. ) i tried tapping the VSA button several times while i was changing lanes and nothing worked. So i basically kept going slow until i reached a familiar exit. I went down the exit and the car was working with me... but as soon as i got to one place.. it stopped on me..
the eerie thing is that the spot my car VSA light came on, i saw a dog got ran over on the freeway. it was still pretty much alive when my cousin was driving pass it, the day before..
anyways i got to the gas station and restarted it twice. it worked enough for me to get home. i got home and did an overview of the car. started it twice more and it was fine...
i was just wondering if this has ever happen to anyone or is it just me getting haunted by some dog on the freeway?

But on a serious note, I'd definitely take it into the dealership and have it looked at.

BUT, they don't do exorcisoms for Deceased Dog Demons. They don't even exorcise Gremlins - believe me, I asked.
But they can diagnose mechanical issues related to VSA.

Get a different cell phone, it's clearly infecting your car
