My 3.0l D4 last week brought up an engine system error last week followed by a sudden loss of power etc. I rang the dealer and they instructed me to lock the car for a few mins and then unlock and restart the car, this I did and the power returned thank god as I was in the middle of the Pilbara, WA - miles from anywhere towing the family caravan with the whole clan on board.
The error message on the dash however did not clear even after disconnecting the battery as told by the dealer. I have towed the van "as is" many times since I purchased the D4 with no problem at all. As I am so far from the dealer in Perth I decided to live with the message till the next service which is a while off as it's just had one. Got a faultmate from Cyprus within a week and cleared the codes successfully.
Like to know what the codes mean if anyone can help.
P3201-P062B
Other than this little problem that could have been my doing, this is an absolutely brilliant vehicle, and towes my 2.2t van beautifully.

P062B appears to relate to an internal ECM error regarding fuel injection. A reflash of the ECM may be appropriate if it keeps happening.

Very Correct, the best thing to do is to take it to a dealer and have the Powertrain Control Module reconfigured, if the issue persists, the dealer may do further diagnostic work to solve the issue.

Is there a usual fault that causes P00BD (MAF airflow), P1247 (turbo) & P0235 (turbo) combination? It happened just before the 2nd turbo replacement task earlier this year and happened again yesterday whilst droving sheep where lots of on/off throttle was used. Also P006A (MAP correlation) along with the others once yesterday too. Clearing the codes doesn't always overcome 'restricted performance' but some proper driving then another restart cleared yesterday's problem, although the faults were again recorded and are still there.
