Service engine light, Slip and TCS off light on at the same

Was leaving work tonight, and all 3 of these lights came on. I warmed up the car which has been outside most of the weekend. Stopped at a lights, felt a slight thump from underneath and all 3 of these lights went on. Felt no lost in performance at all. Came home shut off the car, and turned it back on right after. Service engine light stayed on....What can this be. I asked a friend wiht a 00 I30 and he said only his engine l ight came on when his O2 sensor went...Any clues? I felt no symptoms at all of a engine problem

BTW I'm Toronto where it was -15 celcius yesterday, and -12 today...BRRRR

About 99% of the time when all three stay lit on the dash are most probably caused by the coils. Soon the the other two will go out and the SES will stay lit until reset. If you pull the code(s), one of them will probably be P1320. As a good general rule, it's best to change all six coils at the same time to avoid any future problems.
