It sounds like you might need new front axles if it is vibrating as you drive. As far as TCS light, that usually comes on with the check engine light. You can always go to a auto store, like AutoZone, and get the error code to know why the light is coming on.

Try checking the coil packs .start the van and unplug them one at a time you will know if you have a bad one if the idle changes when you unplug it . If one goes you might as well change them all they are cheaper on Amazon I changed one and another went out so it's most likely if one went out more will follow
