OK, got 11a.

Thanks for your help.

New query - 9ac Admitting one for tests, writhing in severe pain- an indication of sportiness. (2-6, 7)
I have ??-????U?, S?R?P?S

Help please!

Wordless

Wordless, I think your U is wrong, but then I haven't got 4D yet.

For 9A, think cars rather than the Olympics. More help available if needed.

Finished now - I think - but I still don't understand some. I'm glad other people found this a bit weird.

4D I assume swops 'E' for the 'U' in a pharmacy's business - but what has that/those to do with 'on telephone deposit'?
4D Pharmacy's business stocks ecstacy for you, on telephone deposit (5) D_E_S (won't give the answer unless someone wants it)

Oh, OK, as I was typing in the other two, I saw them. It's Just 4D I don't understand.

Thanks. That may help. Wasn't sure about the 'u'. I can't parse my entry for 4dn. So could well be wrong.!

Wordless

"On the telephone" is a (clumsy) "sounds like". "U" (to be dropped) sounds like "you".
Poor clue, I thought.

... and 'deposit' is the definition then. Thanks, chrise, that one was baffling me.

Wordless, 9A is a letter wrapped in an anagram, inside a word (thought up by an Enigmatist), and the end of the clue is the definition.

Struggled through, now have only 1ac and 3d to comete pach of which I have an answer for but they don't fit with each other.
1ac 'got switched' I have T.I...D
3d 'flimsy bloody cases succeeded unchanged, I have ..S.A.E.Y
am ready for help!

Sorry for typos in my last message, it's the interfering spell check on my tablet, should have used my laptop!
