Started my 2003 Nissan Altima it died tried to restart and it cranked more than normal. When driving my TCS off light came on and said SLIP and service engine light also is on.Runs fine shifts fine
SOURCE: TCS/SLIP & Check Engine Light Warning
TCS is Traction Control System,and all TCS's are controlled though the Anti Lock Braking (ABS) system.Here's how it works:Each wheel,or in some cases,only the drive wheels have a speed sensor mounted near the hub or axle,and sends a speed signal to the PCM (Powertrain Control Module).The PCM monitors wheel speed continuously,and if it sees a speed out of the ordinary,say for example the right rear tire is spinning and traveling at a much higher speed than the left rear,the PCM will pulse the brakes through the ABS system on the right rear to slow down the right rear so that the left and right wheel speeds match up,this is how the traction control works.So,if you have a TCS problem,the PCM will see this and set a Dignostic Trouble Code (DTC).You need to pull the DTC's out of the system with a scan tool,diagnose and repair the DTC's.It could likely be something as simple as a malfunctioning wheel speed sensor,but you won't know until the codes are pulled out,as this will point in the general direction.Good luck.

identify thru computer which cylinder is the culprete then check for injector winding problems, bad grounds , have your local tech check for t.s.b. on this problem? also have you replaced the plugs?
SOURCE: service engine soon, TCS off, SLIP
The oil change wouldn't cause this problem. Just in-case, check the engine oil level.
There are many emission sensors in the car that will make the engine light come ON. Best way to find out what's going on is to have an auto-parts store hook up a engine code reader and tell you what the code means. Most auto-part store will do this for free.
Testimonial: "very helpful. i have the mechanic checked the car , the sensor says it has a malfunction in P0340"

You need to have a fault scan done. Any good shop or parts store can do it for FREE for you. Autozone, Advance auto parts both do it free.
