It was before 10 pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a dry evening, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were resting commenting on the recent tennis, ready for the next call for the day to come in. Eventually we received the call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Lyndhurst and put petrol in a diesel mom's BMW X5 M rental car by mistake. The poor thing was pretty distressed apparently, crying "I just can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that these things regrettably can happen. She had managed to get the car into a safe space and, because it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could find the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home satisfied and not so anxious. Another fuel drain in Hampshire done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to take care of in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will often produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances very quickly.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

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.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
• 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.
