Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel is likely to bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

• 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.
