Shock, horror! 
I plugged in VCDS after fixing the alarm horn with new batteries, cleared the errors related to that and did a full scan.
What did I find to my total amazement? I've never, ever seen this before.
Nothing. Zilch. Nada. Sod all. No error codes whatsoever! A totally clean scan. 
Even the 01119 has gone. Could the new Fuel Pressure Regulator have cured that? Or (worse) something else cured the 01119 which was in turn causing the throttle oddness.
