It was just after 5 pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Brian and I were relaxing talking about the recent golf, at the ready for the 8th job that day to come in. In due time we had the call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Water Eaton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel maroon BMW Z8 rental car by mistake. The poor lady was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this unfortunately can happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a serious condition to handle in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the fuel will often trigger idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both situations quite swiftly.
Take note however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

- 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.
