Got the D3 to Port Macquarie Dealer after almost every warning and restriction came on! Driving fine then the park brake warning came on, turned out to be a battery!

Sounds like software.
Have you tried a hard re-set?
Lock and leave for five minutes.
Disconnect battery for ten.
Re-connect.
I think it is something like that. “There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely gamesâ€

Hi kenso, there have been some similar issues where a loom plug up behind the fuse box in the cranking battery’s compartment is loose.
Not sure if it’s the same problem but might be worth a look.

Were you towing at the time the 'park brake warning came on, then special programs .........'
This happend to me several times over a 3 day period whilst towing in the Gammon Ranges in September (sandy on Googs Track then very dusty across to and in the Gammon Ranges - no water crossings). Each time the error occured we stopped, shut down, waited, restarted. On the third day I pulled off the trailer electrics connectors, gave them a good flush with WD40 and reconnected. Problem hasn't occured since.
Alto at Newcastle couldn't find any record of the errors in the log, and had no idea what problem could be.
I am confident it was related to the towing electricals 'S' TDV6, Air suspension, Terrain Response, Active rear diff, Safari Snorkel, Opposite Lock rear wheel carrier, OL drawer system, Cargo Barrier, Dual batteries with Rotronics isolator, GME 3440 UHF. Codan NGT HF, Asus UMPC running TrackRanger. Cooper LT245/70R17 STTs when off-road. Tow Ultimate off-road camper.

mine did a similar thing when towing in heavy rain.
The engine went into limp mode 3 times.
The earth in the trailer connection was almost burnt out .
Once i had rewired it it didnt happen again
