Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to handle in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will often result in idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances very swiftly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be completely wet and unusable.
