2003 Sequioa VSC - what fixes it?
I'm reading alot about 2003 Sequioa's with VSC problems.
What I can't quite figure out from reading numerous posts, is, the fix. Is there anyone out there who has had the dreaded VSC problems and also had a successful fix? What is it that fixed the problem? Not looking for rants about the costs, rather, what was it that fixed the problem? Thanks all. |
