Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to address in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

• 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.
