I had the same problem and replaced the coolant temperature sensor (about $30 if you can do it yourself) and it went away. No problems since. Worth it to try it, although it could be something more expensive. I read about this on other blogs.
VW told me i had to change the whole engine. HA on them.
The flashing red light is for the factory security system that comes with your vehicle, I own a 2002 Ford Explorer and we have the same thing...
A flashing red traffic light is used the same way as a stop sign. You treat a flashing red traffic light the same way you do as a stop sign. If the traffic light is "blacked-out", it's to be treated as an all-way stop. What I do when I come up to a flashing red traffic light, I look at the cross-traffic signals to see if they're also flashing red, or if they're flashing yellow to see if they stop or if they don't stop.
If the VSC flashing light comes on at the same time on your Toyota Corolla, then there might be a sensor issue, and if you have a warranty, have it back to the manufacturer.
Front turn signal light on the same side is not working.

my car doing the same thing
the red warning light will come on. this is the same light that comes on in blue when engine is started.
lookup on youtube and follow altima airbag reset it's the same
means nothing Wrong! It means caution. Something requires extra attention. At an intersection, a flashing circular yellow means to take extra caution, and watch for traffic on the cross road (which has a flashing red light). A flashing red light is the same as a stop sign. A flashing yellow arrow means you ma turn in the direction of the arrow, but you must yield to conflicting traffic. If the flashing yellow light is not at an intersection, it either calls attention to a road hazard on an accompanying sign, or indicates that a special regulation indicated on the sign is in effect (School speed limit 20 when flashing).
It should be the same as a '99. See here: http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_do_you_change_a_1999_vw_head_lamp
