The unfortunate thing was rather distressed apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe I have messed up the vehicle!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel can potentially bring about idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances fairly simply.

Take note that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.
