On arrival of the mechanic at your location

The very first task that our technician will do once he arrives at your location is to verify if the issue you reported via our customer care is correct or not - misfuelling. If the finding is negative, no services will be done on fixing the suspected incorrect fuel in a vehicle. You won't have to pay for the quoted services, rather, a call out charge will be asked of you.

If the technician learns that it is really the case of wrong fuel then he will start fixing it immediately as he already has the fresh fuel and the required tools to solve the problem. He will take away the mixed fuel, flush fuel system thoroughly and then fill it up with the fresh fuel priced at the same rate as at the petrol station. We are aware that you might not be having enough money with you, but you don’t have to worry because we accept any common credit or debit card thus you can use them to pay.

Water and AdBlue Contamination

Putting the wrong fuel in your vehicle isn’t the only reason for engine problems. Fuel contaminated with water will also cause similar signs of lack of power, irregular running, a lot of smoke and stalling. This is a serious problem that can completely damage the fuel filters.

A diesel-powered vehicle may also show such signs when someone puts AdBlue straight into the vehicle’s fuel tank. The correct way to add it is via a separate tank and automatic dosing system built into the vehicle.

But you don't need to fret since we can fix both problems for you by using the same procedure used in solving the problem of wrong fuel. So, if your issue is wrong fuel, water contaminated fuel, broken fuel filters or AdBlue into the wrong tank, don’t worry, we can fix it for you thus enabling you to carry on with your journey.

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.
