Renault Espace overheating

Car: Renault Espace
Variant: grand 2.2 dci
Model Year: 2003

Categories: Leaks & Noises

Had the starter motor replaced and the next day icollected it from the garage and it overheated and the audible warning sounded and STOP appeared on the dash.
I filled up with hot water and went on my way. since then I need to top up the reservoir with 2 litres of water each morning and the heater is not getting hot.
A year ago the head was removed to sort out a problem with the rocker shaft.
Any solutions?
