Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol may result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations quite expediently.
