It was close to seven pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry day, it had not stopped raining!

Inevitably we had the call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had pulled into the Shell petrol station in Sacombe Green and put the wrong fuel in her diesel white BMW 745 hire car. She was quite distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that these things unfortunately often happen.

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

    • 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. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.

  4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
