Default flashing glow plug and dashboard lit up

I have an X Type 07 plate, a few weeks ago my glow plug started flashing and went into limp mode after i put my foot down to overtake someone, restarted the engine and it was fine. It happened again so took it to the garage, they checked and re-tuned the fuel injectors but they were fine and replaced the fuel filter as it had some water in it. This morning, the glow plug came on, then a few minutes later the dashboard all lit up and stopped working but the car kept going although still in limp mode. Got to work, restarted engine and all the lights are off as normal?
Any thoughts please?

Easy find if you do a search. There are dozens of responses to this exact problem with the fix (the drill hole in turbo/Mr. Muscle fix) including videos in many of the responses.
