    The triangle, brake, vsc, CEL...

    The brake and the vsc shut off after a short drive. Car seems to drive fine.

    What are the recommended first steps for DIYers? Don't have a mini vci yet.

    1) Per bisco, confirm 12V health.

    2) Read codes. Code reading options in my sig.

    Check your tire pressure in all four corners; I had one down to 22 lbs, gave me the same lights you indicate.
