Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank will trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances pretty swiftly.
Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.
