First off congrats on a new car. I just recently got one too.

When you first start the car the VSA light should be off by default which means its working. That is straight from the manual.

Now to turn it on off I quickly realized that I to hold down the button for couple of seconds swithches on/off. At first I thought I would just have to quickly press the button but then i realized i have to hold mine for like 2 seconds to go on/off.

Assuming you tried all that then I would just take it back to the dealer. It should go off and you do want everything to be working right at least when you first get the car.

 

hes talking about the "VSA" indication....not the "!". you would only get the triangle ! indication when vsa is being activated. the "VSA" indication is letting you know that there is a problem with the vsa system, and the ecu discovered it. definitley take it into the dealer, this could turn out to be a headache with sensors.

 

Oops soory I misread the inital post. Nice catch.

I'll be interested to hear what they say the problem is.
