Thanks so much for the advice fellas.
Interestingly though, the P2008 fault code wont go using the dongle I bought. Nothing seems to clear it.
Any advice for that?

It may be a what I call a "hard logged DTC" -
ecu has seen the same fault so many times it wont clear it unless dealer IDS software is used.
Its rare but Ive had customers who cant clear certain DTCs with their own handsets but our dealer software clears them no problem.
But then a lot of generic aftermarket scanners wont show all the logged DTCs. Ive come across some that a Snap on Scan tool cant even see let alone clear but a Bosh one can see and clear it. (why we now only use the dealer software for Ford, Mazda, Jag and Range Rover/Land Rover vehicles)
OR you had 2 faults and you have only fixed the one and you aren't aware of the other fault as your scan tool isn't seeing it.
Without seeing your car and looking on a real-time data logging display that's my best guess.
