The battery one could just be a spurious error.. they crop up all the time..

Just noticed a transmission mount error as well, that would cause roughness too. You may just have a connection loose, so worth checking them, or you may be unlucky enough to have two faulty glow plugs.

I have just read my vehicle build spec and it states 'Without Auxiliary heater'. What else could be causing this smoke and bad smell?

Just to double check, plug in VCDS and click on 'aux heater' and see if it works

Beyond that, not sure, but worth dropping the underfloor pan and checking.
