However, I had my brake discs/pads replaced all round last week and now t ... |

In fact, a dead throttle body produced a ... |

Changed my fuel filter using the same method as Bobupndown. No problems at all, at least with getting the car running.
The fuel inlet pipe from the tank to filter (lower left connection when fitted ... |

Has anyone found a way around the need to use the radio's a ... |

I don't think it's essential at all. I used JLR SDD to calibrate it for good measure but it started/stopped just fine before I did this.
You may want to buy a code reader so you can reset the fault ... |

Ok, throttle body changed and working well - all fault codes for it are gone.
Got a new problem now; three fault codes: EGR stuck open AND closed (mmmkay..), and EGR circuit low. Definitely just h ... |
