Is there a way to turn the VSC & TRAC OFF lights off (and keep their functions active) and just ignore the CEL lights on since this is the combination of lights on by design?
My 2005 (170K miles) LC 100 has had the lights on and off over the past 3-4 years now and I was able to reset it with OBDII and have them off for months at a time, but now it comes back within a day of two so I'm not sure if the cat is getting really clogged or what? Been thinking about the Magnaflow direct fit but then I heard some say if it is not OEM, the light may come back.
Talked to couple of dealerships, it is about $1700 for one side and but labor is only an hour. Is there any way around this Cat issue or is OEM the ONLY way to go? I intend to keep this rig for as long as I can. Is there a way to keep the traction controls still functioning with the CEL light on? I was also told the cat will eventually get so clogged that car will not operate correctly, stall or just stop running. Is that this will ultimately end up?
