Petrol In My Diesel Car
Wrong Fuel 24/7

Putting petrol in my diesel car is a very common mistake, but if you've misfuelled, the single most crucial step is to avoid starting the engine or turning the ignition key.

 

Diesel engines rely on fuel for lubrication, and even a small amount of petrol can degrade the lubricating properties, leading to serious damage to the high-pressure fuel pump and injection system.

 

If the engine hasn't been started, the fix is typically a straightforward, professional fuel drain and flush of the tank and lines.

 

If you have driven the vehicle, the damage may be more extensive, requiring a full system inspection. Always call our professional recovery service immediately for expert assistance to minimize costly repairs and get your misfuelled car fixed properly.
