OK I've got an Xtool v401. Can someone please tell me the steps to use this tool to prime the fuel pump after changing the filter?

I'm 70, and not too swift with diagnostic tools at all, so I'll need step by step instructions if someone would be kind ehough to do so!

Thanks

You don't need to prime the pump for a filter change-none of the fuel drains from the pump. Just top up the canister with clean fuel after changing the filter.

OBDeleven works well for minor tasks and doesn't cost anywhere near as much as VCDS. I have both and rarely use VCDS.
