Help needed - non starting Diesel in Derby area

Hi everyone. As per the title. Non starting '02 plate CDTi in Derby.

Car driving fine until yesterday morning when it wouldn't start. Got AA out who eventually got it started but was smoking a lot and engine very rough. Car not driveable and he was unable to fix it. Won't start back up. He said possible fuel injector issue. This is the report he mailed me:

Patrol found the following fault code/s:System : Engine control 1 - 73L / Diesel EDC 15C40201_08 - Unknown fault. Error Message : .0203_08 - Unknown fault. Error Message : .13573 - Glow duration control. Error Message : Glow unit faulty. Member reported the engine not starting. Checked engine oil and coolant levels. Found not relevant fault codes. Checked engine speed and fuel pressure - ok. Got engine started and it is misfiring and smoke from exhaust. Suspect a fuel injector faulty. -

I have no mechancial ability and really need the car back up and running. Is anyone willing to travel to me and diagnose/fix this please? Had a fantastic response to a post like this previously where forum member Lee T came out and replaced my alternator for me just before Christmas.

Thanks in advance
