Problematic Engine

2007 Vauxhall Combo 1.9 CDTi
Car: Vauxhall Combo
Year: 2007
Variant: 1.9 CDTi
Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss
Ever since having my oil pump replaced at 79,000 miles my combo has had a judder when stationary in traffic, driving along the open road all is clear.

It has had a new clutch and flywheel at 98,000 miles. Had a service at 100,000 miles in accordance with the guidelines.

Ever since the last service the judder has got worse, the temperature guage rises in stationary traffic, the coolent left is falling and topped up weekly if not ever other day and the engine warning light for electronics comes on.

Any ideas on the fault?

Need to find out where the coolant is going!!.
Have you got a leak?. If not then you need to get a pressure test on cooling system. If that doesn't show anything then get a block/head test done.
Hope this helps.
