Common Problems
Vauxhall Combo Engine Problems - What It Costs to Fix & When Replacement Makes Sense
The Vauxhall Combo's diesel engines dominate UK replacement demand, particularly the 1.3 CDTI (Z13DT/A13FD) with timing chain failures and the 1.6/2.0 CDTI units with EGR and turbo issues. Every rebuilt engine supplied through EngineMarket includes upgraded internal components designed to address the original failure point - plus a 12-month unlimited...

Failure mileage range
60,000-120,000 miles
Typical failure window
Root cause
Chain tensioner wear allows excessive slack, causing chain jump, valve timing loss, and catastrophic piston-to-valve contact.
Repair options & estimated costs (UK ranges)
| Repair tier | Dealer price | Specialist price | What it involves | Longevity / suitability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Minor - Preventative Chain Kit | £800 - £1,400 | £500 - £900 | Replace chain, tensioner, guides before failure | Viable only if caught early; not suitable post-failure |
| Full Replacement - Rebuilt Engine | £2,200 - £3,800 | £800 - £2,200 | Supply & fit rebuilt unit with upgraded tensioner, bench tested, 12-month warranty | Best value post-catastrophic failure; restores van to income generation |
Our recommendation
If your 1.3 CDTI is showing chain rattle but still runs, a preventative kit from a specialist offers good value. Once the chain has jumped or the engine has seized, replacement with a rebuilt unit including upgraded tensioner is the only reliable solution for a commercial vehicle.
