2.0 CDTi SVS/Limp mode :(

(11:th-Jul-2019, 19:23:27)shabba Wrote: I had the overheating turn engine off immediately, then into limp mode twice last Friday. Got recovered home. Given a card for a vauxhall specialist. This guy came out the Saturday, 35 years experience mind. Plugged his computer in, got no error codes. So we took it for a spin. He says your car sounds really rough on tick over. Anyway, out we go, driving around & eventually the Overheating starts, warnings etc. Temp sensor 1 pretty normal, 2 is way upto 400 degrees. Long story short, he tells me sensor 2 needs replacing, I agree to him telling me this, all the while my car sounds rough. We take it to a garage friend of his, says need to check aux belt etc but not now as busy. I couldn't wait as need car, so I book it in at another garage. Turns out the water pump (the cause of the overheating) was just about disintegrated & was lucky not to wipe the Cambelt out. Got new Cambelt, aux belt and water pump for £277 fitted. Meanwhile before this the vauxhall specialist has ordered me & fitted the temp sensor 2. Now he wants paying for something I never bloody needed in the 1st place!
I'm really surprised this wasn't spotted buy the garage where u got it from or anyone else soon. I mean overheating you think a few things. Water, thermostat and headgasket and then maybe a specific sensor. But if the vauxhall specialist fitted the sensor before you took it too another garage wouldn't he of seen that it didn't f8x problen and therefore maybe offered some type of resolve?
