I tried resetting the VSC lights as per the procedure thinking it might have caused the CEL. VSC went off for a second and came back on. CEL never went out. I read when the CEL comes on it disables VSC, but wanted to give it a try anyway.
It's been parked today and will have it towed it to the dealer tomorrow. I checked the gas cap, taking it off and replacing making sure it clicked tight. CEL still on steady.
I know it could be anything but I'm wondering if there are common issues around this millage that might cause the CEL to come on? Anything I can check before I take it in? Unfortunately I don't have a scan tool.
Thanks.

If the gas cap o-ring is bad just re-tightening the cap may not work, I would try either removing the o-ring and flipping it over and or apply a thin coating of Vaseline to the o-ring to help it seal.
