Hey Mate
hows biz…..? Gone a little bit quiet this week….fuel prices have risen and the punters are paying a bit more attention to the refuelling.
did you ever do a Golf TSI Petrol………..a bit funny to start after the evac.
Hi Ray, biz is more erratic than usual, I think the price changes got everyone filling up at the same time and then not filling up for a few days, and then getting back to usual patterns, it’s getting back to normal now
How’s business in Ireland, Did you get a price hike on fuel as well?
Why not fit a device to ensure this does not occur:

For comparatively low outlay your problem is solved
exactly!, solodiesel is an excellent device and I would recommend everyone fits one
Although i was very unhappy after i filled my S class with petrol instead of deisel dealing with FuelFixer was a good experience. They were on time and the Tatoo covered saviour was a thoroughly nice and decent bloke. If i am stupid enough to fill her incorrectly again I will be ringing the FuelFixer hotline.
Well done.
good morning
I too have done the unthinkable. moment of temporary madness or just laziness. what would it cost to drain an Audi A3 2007. Im based in SW11. many thanks
Thanks for coming to the rescue the other day! I really don’t know what i would have done without you! I think i’d probably be facing a divorce actually. Anyway, I found your service to be fast and your man showed up on time, and took care of my car. Needless to say, I don’t think my husband will be letting me use his car again anytime soon, but its fixed and thats all that matters.
Thanks

Hi All
Just looking for some advice really please. I filled my car up (2007 (07) Audi Avant A4 2.0 TDI) and the day after it conked out whilst driving home from work (no warning just cut out). I pulled in and it restarted after a few minutes. A few days later it conked out again whilst driving but this time no restart. After the first conk out I put about £2.00 worth of petrol to a full tank of diesel to clean it (I was told it was safe to do so but only small amounts). After investigating it was discovered that the fuel pump had gone. I really just wanted to ask a few questions, so any help would be appreciated.
1. Would this little amount of petrol in a full tank of diesel cause this to happen?? Bearing in mind that the first conk out was before I added the petrol.
2 I made a complaint to the garage in question because the fuel was a really dark brown/black colour. The mechanic who looked is a friend and was quite shocked at the colour. They said they would sample the fuel and if there “stamp” was in it they would cover the cost of repairs providing its there fault.
3 My biggest problem is that no one else has complained about there fuel at this station.
Can any one offer any advice on this..(and I no the obvious is dont put petrol in a diesel)
Many thanks,
Kevin
Hi Kevin, sorry to hear about that, to answer your questions
1) no, that ammount of petrol in a full tank is about 2% – harmless for the short term
2) the marker they are talking about (stamp) is a chemical dye that will indicate where the fuel has come from, this is a customs and excise requirement, however petrol does attack the fuel lines and fuel tank walls which are made from rubber and plastic and it does make the fuel a black muddy colour, i have a picture of this in the faqs
3) if you put the name of the station up here anyone else affected might also see it and compare stories, but from what you have told me I would think its a problem with your car that is unrelated to the petrol, and the ugly looking fuel is normal if petrol has gotten in to the tank,
My advice would be to take it to an audi dealer or independent dealer, and have car checked out,
hope that helps
Hi, put £20 unleaded in a corsa ecotec, that had about £5 diesel in it. Drove for a couple of miles, until juddered then it was left until could be collected. The car has now be drained by dealership and was filled up to half but it has used a quarter of a tank to do 4 miles!! What might be the problem??
Thanks
Hi, without looking at it I would guess that you either have a very serious fuel leak, or more likely, when a car is drained it often sends the tank level reading skewiff, – its unlikely the dealership gave you half a tank of fuel, whats more likely is they gave you 20 quids worth and you got the car back with a false reading on the guage, and now you have driven it the in tank sensor has founds its true level and adjusted itself.
check the ground underneath the car and if you cant see any diesel its a tank sensor issue, if there is diesel on the ground call the dealership.
its not uncommon for fuel gauges to temporarily play up after a fuel drain, however sometimes when a fuel tank is accessed from the top (which involves removing the level sensor) if it is not put back in carefully it can give false readings and permanently play up until it is corrected,
hope that helps, if it still acts up give us a call
Excellent service; very professional. Came in 45 min exactly as predicted. Competitive price.
good question; has it been driven to point of failure ? where is it?, what type of car is it? do you need fresh fuel supplied? – I understand that when you have misfueld you will want an immediate answer, but a fuel drain costs between £140 & £240 and if you want an exact price, I will need more specifics
