CHECK VSC & Engine Light Flashing

[Tuppence3]

Hello,

 

Lexus IS 250 SE (Nov 2005).  Check VSC Light and the little engine light on.  Have put an OBD2 on and got the code P0304 which goes from faulty spark plug 4 to cylinder 4 misfire.  I have driven it about 5km since the lights came on, engine light flashing by I got home.  Have seen on internet do not drive (definately).  Local garage says thinks it is ok to drive it down and they will put their diagnostic tool on it, then maybe |I need anotherx appointment.  Then presumably I drive it back.

What is your opinion about driving it with that engine light flashing please.?  Thanks.

I'm no mechanic but you have to weigh the risk against cost of repairs if anything goes wrong and, personally, I wouldn't risk it.
