Help need ideas?

Was at a cruise in went to leave when I started it there was a long slow start then now it idles ruff at 800 rpm and stopped at lights and the “service traction control” and “service active handling” texts come up as well as traction control light and check engine light. It’s a 2013 GS automatic. Any ideas? Has 21,000 miles. Thanks for any ideas!

My first thought would be a battery issue. Did you have the doors open/closed a lot or radio on while the engine was off?

Without the codes, you're just guessing. Any parts store will read the codes for no cost....Advance Auto, NAPA, O'Reilly's, PEP Boys, etc.

Check your spark plug wires at the coil and on the spark plug to ensure they are all connected and seated properly.

After you get the codes, look them up on Google, with ODBII in the title...you can come back and post the paragraph(s) here.
