i was just wondering if ANYONE had experienced what I experienced yesterday

so I washed my car on Thursday and I left my car in the garage till Sunday. and when I started up my car on Sunday morning, I noticed that the sound was different. It wasn't as "smooth" as it used to be. something was different. It sounded like the air wasn't flowing right. but I just thought that it was because I didn't drive it for 2 days.

anyways, after a cold start, the sound seemed to be back to normal, so I drove off to church. and that's when all these crazy things happened.
I drove about 2 miles, and all of sudden, my car gets super loud while I'm waiting on the red light. my foot was on the brake and the RPM wasn't moving at all, but the car sounded like I was revving up and then when I put my foot on the gas pedal, the gas pedal was shaking...and the gear got stuck on the 1st gear (I was on auto mode and the RPM wouldnt drop ), and all of sudden the gas pedal stopped working. I mean, I pressed on the gas pedal but the car wouldnt go...
and guess what?? the car stalled.....WTF??? my car is automatic........

so I managed to pull over to the side,,,turned off my car completely, and I turned it back on..and when I did, I have VSC light on...my display shows CHECK VSC..and when the light wouldnt go away even when I pressed the VSC button and I have CHECK Engine light on with so many other lights....

luckily I was able to drive back my car and I dropped it off at the Beverly Hill's Lexus today. they are charging me $175 just to check and it happens that my warranty was over last month...

anyways,,has anyone have a similar problem with their IS??
