Car now back from its trip to the garage. The manager of the garage told me that the person who fitted it originally couldn't punch his way out of a paper bag as he'd not push-clicked the connector into the socket. He administered some immediate corrective action with the proverbial clip round the ear lol.
Headlights were now dipping correctly as expected but I still had that infernal dipped beam icon on my dashboard.

A quick trip down to see Adrian_E in Horley (nice work) with his VCDS and now all is well. I'd almost forgotten the 48 point font that the message 'OK' was displayed in. Huge! Thanks for the input on this and sorry for casting aspersions on being supplied a possibly fault part ;-)
