When we get to your location

Once the mechanic is at your location and has access to your car, his first task is to confirm whether the problem of your vehicle is caused by incorrect fuel or not. If the finding is negative, no services will be done on fixing the suspected incorrect fuel in the car. You won't have to pay for the quoted services, instead, a call out charge will be asked of you.

If it is actually the problem of wrong fuel in a car, our mechanic will solve it immediately since he carries the equipment for flushing out the wrong fuel and refilling the tank with the correct fuel.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

Fuel system mixed with water can make the engine of your vehicle behave badly. It will make it show similar signs as the wrong fuel in the car, such as low power, irregular running, production of too much smoke and even stalling. But unlike wrong fuel, it can make your fuel filters require replacement.

A diesel-powered car may also exhibit such symptoms when someone puts AdBlue straight into the vehicle’s fuel tank. This can be done so through adding it to its own separate tank and dosing system which is inbuilt into the vehicle.
