Vtec 3.2 Engine light blinks constantly and TCS light stays on after starting car. Looking to see what the likely cause is. The engine idles and runs rough with weak power. Diagnostics say Random misfire on cylinders 1-4-5-6 and Code P0300 and P1399.
Any suggestions? could the light be on because of the direct ignition coils or fuel system? I heard of problems with ignition coils. Anyone recommend if they should be replaced? I have 100K miles on the car.

I have just experienced the exact same problem with my 99 Acura TL. Have you been able to solve your problem?

Just had the SAME problem as well.  It's at the shop right now and I'm waiting for a call.  I'm thinking/hoping it's the EGR valve.

My 2000TL had misfire codes for all 6 cylinders, code P1399 (EGR) and wanted to stall.  The check engine light and TCS lights were on as well.  The problem was a clogged EGR valve, possibly because of using mid-grade gas instead of premium, according to the dealership.
