I have had the same occurrence except my check engine light came on also. I ended up disconnecting the battery to reset the ecu and it did happen one more time. I disconnected it again and checked all the connections by unplugging and reconnecting to all the various components listed in the service manual as possible causes. It hasn't come back on since. I decided to try this since I have found loose connections causing codes in the past. On Sat, 28 Jun 2003 17:11:14 GMT, "E.

I took the car to dealer and he said the error code logged indicated a
problem with EGR valve. He gave me some explanation of how the EGR valve was involved with TCS operation but I didn't get it. Bottom line was that the thing was covered under warranty and he cleaned the clog and reset the error code for no charge so I didn't press further. The light hasn't come on since.

This past Saturday my light came back on so I decided I should take it in to see what was up. It turned out to be a bad egr valve and was replaced under warrantee. I didn't ask what the correlation between the TCS light and the egr valve was though.
