Similar to one posted all over but not exactly the same message, about a problem with a gear selector sensor.

 

Is it the same thing with just an updated message from newer software? Or likely a different issue?

 

Error message doesn't go away, left car alone for an hour, still showing orange triangle on the warning lights and the attached message

It will be the position switch on the base of the gear lever. Very easy to fix and plenty of how to guides on here.

Thanks, though from what I've seen that issue is intermittent, this doesn't go away, error is now permanently on my dash.

 

Am I wrong about that?

Until it is cleared by a fault  code reader it will stay as a notification. I have OBDeleven and keep it in the glovebox for issues like these.

Ok that's interesting, I have to drive to France in a week.

 

Just bought an OBDEleven, will check the fault code tomorrow when it arrives, thanks
