Default Dynamic mode + manual shifting = red triangle displayed on infotainment system

past couple times ive had a chance to really let the cat loose, id put it in dynamic mode, put the transmission in sport and as soon as i start shifting manually, a red hazard triangle shows up on my infotainment system....but nothing on my dash.

when I click the triangle, it just says "see message center"....but nothing displays on the dash. no warning lights, no CEL, absolutely fine.

any ideas?

This is normal operation, nothing to be worried about.
For some strange reason JLR saw fit to "warn" you that you are in Dynamic and S, as if you didn't already know this!

Next they will have a warning light to tell you the radio is on.

Well this is because when you are in dynamic and S at the same and then use the paddles to manually shift the car will hold the gear until you tell it to move out of it.
You can burn up the transmission if you lets say, put it in 2nd and then went to 120mph.
