So, my car keeps juddering when driving like it wants to stall. Sometimes it cuts out completely and then has a warning message saying 'stop oil pressure too low'

I took it to the garage today and he did a full oil/filter change.
He also said that this could be because of blocked fuel lines. It does seem a little better when driving but has still cut out/juddered a few times.
I'm really confused.

This could be because of a vacuum leak, or the fuel filters need to be changed. This is a diesel engine, correct? Check for a vacuum leak when the engine is cold. Also, we should service the throttle body.

When the engine idles too low or stalls the oil pressure warning is normal.

Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem.
