Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel will contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases fairly quickly.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
