Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will produce idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances rather quickly.

You should know however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be completely wet and useless.
