Contamination with AdBlue or Water
Fuel system mixed with water can make the engine of your car behave badly. It will make it show similar signs as the wrong fuel in the car, such as low power, irregular running, production of excess smoke and even stalling. This case of water contamination can extend its damage to the fuel filters.
AdBlue is a solution which is used remove hazardous gases from the engine's exhaust, and if it is put in the diesel tank then it can also cause exactly the same issues. Using AdBlue without any knowledge of how it should be refilled can make your car behave abnormally. For correct operation of it, AdBlue should be added through its own separate tank and dosing system rather than added to the fuel tank.
In these situations, we can give the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, just like in the case of filling your tank with the incorrect fuel. So, no matter what the cause we can get you on your way. Furthermore, we can replace the fuel filters destroyed by water.
