2003 Ody TCS and Check engine light is on... car is like misfiring lagging when she goes over 30MPH . I never changed sparks or coils for over 3 yrs, sorry but she's an A-B car. shopping and school maybe an occasional 20 mile trip 2 or 3 times a year. Anyway can changing the coils and plugs cure my woes ? Hoping its not a tranny issue. I'll be going to Autozone for a reading, just found this forum and maybe get help from the ODYCLUB. Thanks

Check engine light will come on for misfiring. You will get P030x codes. CEL on turns off TCS (turns on light).

If it was a flashing check engine and a solid TCS, this just happened to me.
A new #2 coil and 6 new NGK plugs solved my issue.
I‘m the opposite as you, we use our van for long haul vacation’s.
At 253,000, she Is running like the day we bought it.
The seat foam has not degraded either, still super comfortable for long drives.
