So in the future, regardless of whether you are not familiar with the vehicle or the autopilot is in control, you don't have to be afraid. Since you are now acquainted with the signs of incorrect fuel or have experienced it, once it occurs you should be able to observe it. Detecting the problem won't be difficult anymore even without carefully checking out your car.
Your fuel might also be contaminated with water
Presence of water in fuel is another thing which can make your vehicle behave in the way discussed above. Hence you also have to consider it. It does not matter whether your vehicle runs on diesel or petrol, water can also cause it to run roughly and ultimately stop. So you should also be aware of it.
In order to boost the cleanliness of modern diesel engines exhausts today, owner utilizes AdBlue. The proper amount of AdBlue to be added in the fuel system is very important. It's typically mounted on a separate tank to prevent directly mixing to your fuel tank. If you hire somebody to directly add this to your tank without knowing the right procedure, it's more likely to cause trouble to your engine. Again, the signs are very like those stated above, and we can put things right for you.

Wrong Fuel in Car Baildon Green - Petrol in Diesel Car Baildon Green
It was before 8 pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting talking about the weekend's tennis results, waiting for the next call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the BP petrol garage and filled petrol in a diesel Baildon Green hire car. The poor thing was very affected apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and that things like this sadly often happen. She managed to get the car into a safe space and, as it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we were able to get to the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less worried. Yet another misfuel correction done well in my opinion!
