I called fuel fixers after my dad put diesel in his petrol car, they were very professional on the phone and sent someone straight away, he travelled 1 hour and 15 mins to us and the job was done within an hour. I cant thank Gary enough for helping us out and getting my dads car back on the road

Put petrol in my diesel Skoda. Green Flag got the car home for me (just a couple of miles) but couldn't see to the fuel problem. The service I received from yourselves was exemplary. I can't fault the calm and professional way in which the problem was sorted. Your colleague (?Touny) who fixed the car had travelled across from Manchester to East Yorkshire and must have been tired, but everything was done without a fuss. Thank you.

I unfortunately put the wrong petrol in my car. I called Fuel Fixers and they came within the time stated. The gentleman was brilliant and so professional doing his job. It was a pleasure to meet him, such a lovely guy. 24-9-21 at 4pm Leyton Mills. Excellent service. Thank you very much for your assistance.

I put petrol in a diesel van late on a Sunday night and was on hold with the RAC for an hour before I decided to sleep in the van. In the morning, I was still on hold with the RAC so decided to look for alternatives - fuelfixer picked up straight away, were super friendly on the phone and sent a lovely engineer, Elerherto, straight away who managed to drain my van and jump start it in all within about half an hour. I would definitely recommend to anyone in this position!

I mistakenly put petrol in my diesel car. Within the hour, a technician was on-site, putting things right. The car runs fine now, from not starting. Although it was an expensive mistake, I felt the cost was reasonable, as all businesses have overheads. Both the customer service, and the technician were very polite, and very efficient. Would definitely recommend, should anyone make the same mistake.

From the first call I was reassured by the call handler who calmed me down straight away when I had put petrol instead of diesel in my car. He arranged straight away to have Gabe come out. The wait was a bit longer than quoted but Gabe texted with an eta to keep us updated. Once he arrived, Gabe was reassuring and calm, he worked his magic and within half an hour I was ready to go. Gabe was very thorough in what he did, explaining everything as he went along. I was quite emotional already as I had just been at a family funeral and Gabe was sensitive to this fact. Definitely a five star service from them, would recommend them in a heartbeat. Have saved the number but hope I never have to use it again. Total professionals giving respect to both humans and car. Cant thank them enough for sorting my stupid mistake out

A big thank you to fuel fixer and to Arpad in particular. It is a professional customer friendly service and I can only say how efficient Arpad was when he came to sort out my problem. He explained exactly the process and what he was doing in a very courteous and knowleagble way. The whole process was very quick and he fully tested the vehicle to ensure that all was working properly. Well done!

Having made the huge error of putting the wrong fuel in the call and staring down the barrel of a ruined weekend and two very upset children, Fuel Fixer came to the rescue. Within an hour of arriving the car was up a running and has been perfect ever since. The customer service was incredible and the engineer was one of the most professional people I have experienced. If you happen to make the same unfortunate error as me, do not hesitate to call Fuel Fixer. Fuel Fixer Team THANK YOU again for saving the day and best of luck. Cheers Richard

VW Roadside assistance were helpful - but wanted to tow my vehicle to Glasgow and it would be the following day before they could even see it. The gentleman from your team was so polite and helpful, in spite of me feeling rather embarrassed at having made such a mistake! Thank you - I highly recommend your service.

We were amazed at the prompt service late on a Friday evening. The person who answered our call was very reassuring.

In addition he was such a delightful person who relieved our stress. He was very kind and compassionate and renewed our faith in human nature.

Very impressed with the service given. Having put adblue in my diesel tank by accident, I called fuelfixer and they had someone in attendance in less than an hour. An hour later the tank had been drained and flushed and I was back on the road. VW had previously stated they could recover me back to the garage but couldn't look at it for at least two weeks. Highly recommend fuelfixer if you are in a similar situation.

I'm really happy with this service. Guys really know what they doing and how needs to be done. Job was done less than the an hour. If I knew early this company, sure I go for it from begining. But unfortunately I call to breakdown recovery service and they move my car to car service centre and they holded it for 3 days and after they said we can't fix. I don't want to say unprofessional service centre name. But fuelfix showed how can be fix miss fuel issue. Absolutelly recommend this service.

I put unleaded petrol in my diesel tank after finishing at work. From my initial call to the completed job, I was really impressed with the courtesy and professionalism shown throughout. The engineer, Bela, has just left. He phoned me to say he was 20 mins away and found us despite it being an address that usually causes problems; was charming throughout, explaining everything he did. Please convey my thanks to him once more. I will certainly recommend fuel fixer to any of my NHS colleagues who find themselves in the same predicament.

I filled adblue to the diesel tank in my car and drove c400 metres before the engine cut out and I was stranded and extremely worried that I had done serious damage to the fuel system and possibly more. I called my usual mechanic who said I could be looking at a hefty bill if the fuel system on my car needed replacing and suggested I try a roadside specialist in dealing with a misfuel situation. I spoke initially to the helpline (Alan) and after a lengthy exchange and explanation of the process and expertise which fuelfixer has, I commissioned them. Bence arrived slightly late, but proceeded to talk me through what would be needed, and how long it could take. Just over an hour later my car started and could be driven pending a fuel filter change. 48 hours on the new diesel filter is fitted and the car is running as sweetly as I can recall. I had heard horror stories, and feared the worst...but the people who I spoke to and who preformed the service along with the result achieved lead me to have no hesitation in recommending this business if you are in the situation I was. Do not despair just yet!

I putt petrol into my car instead of distal due to tiredness. Rest assured when I realised my big mistake I woke up! I called my insurance company who were charging me a ridiculous amount of money to fix the problem so I called fuel fix as I found them on Google. I spoke to a lovely professional gentleman called Scott who asked me a few questions and put my nerves at ease. Scott was able to arrange a engineer to come out to me within an hour of calling them which was great! Tommy arrived who was the engineer who was very pleasant and explained ever move he took and why. Tommy was friendly and really put my worries at ease. Wishin an hour all the work has been completed and I was able to drive y car again. A big thank you to Scott and Tommy - Highly recommend Fuel Fix

Usual story, half way through fuelling my car I realised I had put the wrong fuel in. Stopped immediately and had a mini panic. Rang my insurance who promised to get back to me in 10 mins. Meanwhile another person in the filling station was in the same predicament and as it turned out was waiting for your operative to arrive. When Bela turned up I rang you to request that he did mine too. Fortunately I was able to cancel my insurance call out. Bela is a lovely man with a beautiful smile and immediately puts you at ease. His explanation of the whole process was easy to understand and not done in a patronising manner at all. He made what could have been a traumatic experience into something of no no consequence. He is definitely an asset to your company and as already stated on the receipt/invoice provided excellent service.

After filling my car with unleaded petrol instead of diesel, I was given your card by the kind cashier at the BP garage in Frant near Crowborough. I was understandably overjoyed to see the lovely Jozsef Bence arrive to my rescue. He was polite, reassuring and very professional - a real credit to your company. I am pleased to say that I was back on the road very quickly (now with a tank of diesel) and was in time for my daughters hospital appointment. A fabulous service, thank you.

Fuel Fixer drove from Edinburgh to Berwick-upon-Tweed on a Sunday lunchtime to rescue me from the side of the road! He was polite, very friendly and reassured me that putting the wrong fuel in the car is a mistake made by many. I was very grateful and you got me back on the road in no time at all.

After my fuel disaster on the way to see a very sick relative in hospital, i was put in contact with FuelFixer and was attended to by Gabe. Gabe was very professional, efficient and reassuring when he was attending to my car. He explained everything he was going to do and he was very cheerful and had a brilliant mannerism. He was very confident in answering any questions i asked. Cannot fault him in any way but i wish he could have been with me sooner because it was freezing but that is outwith his control as he got sent to the borders for a job but once he got there, it was half an hour and i was on my way. Thank you anyway but hopefully wont see you again lol

After a refuelling disaster, unleaded into a diesel hyundai i30 my wife was at her wits end when she phoned me to tell me what had happened. To make matters worse, it was dark and our 5 year old granddaughter was in the car with her and the car would not start. I collected them both and returned home. I Googled the problem and fuel fixer came up . A very friendly and knowledgeable guy called Gabor collected me at the house and we returned to the car.After draining the wrong fuel and cleaning the fuel lines Gabor had the car running again in about 20 minutes. Thanks fuel fixer and especially a big thank you to Gabor, you're a star.

I am now not surprised that so many people have misfueled their car..... and have felt that sinking feeling. I realised almost straight away that something was not quite right (after less than 2 litres had gone in) but was not happy with the prospect of potential damage to pumps, injectors and the general state of tune. I called FUELfixer (Google) and Gabor arrived less than an hour later. He quickly pumped out the saddle-tank in my car, added some sort of flushing agent, and put in 20 worth of fuel. A certain procedure was carried-out on start-up and the car ran faultlessly 300 miles the next day. Every step of the service was explained to me in detail and I was made very comfortable in the knowledge that no damage had been done to the car's engine or management systems. A great recovery was achieved from a wretched mistake - thank you, Gabor.

My wife filled our diesel car with petrol. She came across your website online and decided to ask for your assistance. Gabe arrived within the specified time. He drained the fuel, flushed out the system and refuelled the vehicle while I waited in the car. He kept me informed of progress throughout the job and was very professional, polite and considerate. I hope I never have to deal with a misfuelled car again but if it were to happen I could not think of anyone better to have fix the car than Gabe. Many thanks.

After the completion of a 16hr shift I refueled at my local Tesco, It wasn't until I'd put 30 worth of petrol in my diesel car I'd realised what a stupid act I had committed no one else to blame but myself. I googled wrong fuel and found FuelFixer, the rep I spoke to assured me that I was just one of the many thousands who unwittingly make this mistake every a day. Your agent Bela arrived within the hour, you should count yourselves lucky that you have Bela who is an outstanding ambassador for your company. Thoroughly professional and very knowledgeable Bela explained everything that he was going to do in detail, I was very impressed with Bela he was a really nice and genuine person. If your company has any internal awards for staff achievements then Bela certainly deserves a top award, well done and thank you Bela.

After several minutes of "a little more suction here,a little( or a lot of ) squirt there" the car started and ,after gentle coaxing from Robert, continued to run smoothly again. Throughout the whole process Robert was friendly,courteous and very knowledgeable (explaining each step/process as he performed it). I would happily recommend both Robert and FuelFixer to anyone in need of their particular services.Many thanks for a job well done and the prompt service provided by both Robert and the call-centre operative that took my initial call..

Fuel Fixer truly rescued me and my daughter half way from Yorkshire to Somerset.

Robert Kiraly from Fuel Fixer was professional, friendly and super efficient. In addition the three young men who took my (stressed) calls were really helpful and reassuring - more an online help service than a switchboard. I am really grateful - not least for Fuel Fixers flexibility with paying on invoice as has no card on me and insufficient cash. On the payment front, the cost was v reasonable. Thank you

After initial panic of the realisation that I had placed unleaded fuel in my diesel car .... and then drove for 50 miles ..... I obviously feared the worst. I came across FuelFixer via Google reviews and decided to give them a call and ask them to visit by 8.30am next morning. I am one of those who take 'feedback' with a pinch of salt, but this experience has allayed my fears and justified my call to them. I was greeted at 8.20am next morning by a very polite, obliging and knowledgeable technician, Bela. He was a very calming influence and began to reassure me right from the start. He took the time and patience to explain the whole process. What was involved and why he was doing this. I have to say that he was a real pleasure to deal with. After about 1hr 15 mins the job was finished and the car was purring nicely (as nicely as a diesel can!!). 3 days later and absolutely no signs of any issues caused by my mistake. I fully recommend them to anyone in the same predicament.

He arrived within 30 mins of my call, letting me know when he was about 10 mins away, and he got me back on the road again about 30 mins later. In the meantime, we had a lovely chat about Hungary, gardening, cathedrals and the quirks of the English language. I was weeping when he arrived, but laughing when he left. Proud to shake his hand.

After a very long shift at work, I foolishly picked up the black hose at my local BP garage to fill my car with diesel. Unfortunately it wasnt diesel but a premium unleaded. I hadnt checked! I found Fuel Fixer on line the following morning and Gabor was with me an hour later to fix the car. Brilliant job, very quick and also polite and informative on the situation. The car is running well and back to normal. Thoroughly recommend as a great solution to your woes. He is located on Edinburgh but covers a vast area across the north. A far better option than using the AA or RAC who would have charged me a lot more. As I wasnt a member. Thank you Gabor.

Your Technician Pete who covers the Southampton area, came out to my girlfriend this evening 07/07/2018. After she had accidentally put the wrong fuel in her motor. On the side of the B3035 nr curdridge. After the Rac had said it would take 2hrs. He was with us within half an hour, He reassured my partner and explained that everything was going to be ok. An not to stress, he explained everything that he was doing. He was really professional and he is a credit to your company. Please pass on my thanks again to him. Tom littlewood.

After making the mistake of putting the wrong fuel in my car, I asked the Murco station on the A49 if they had any recommendations on what company I could call. They gave me Fuel Fixer's number, and within an hour after calling (Job 15731), Attila arrived and fixed the problem efficiently. His friendly manor made my ridiculous mistake less stressful, and he even waited to make certain after I put in the correct fuel that my car would start without an issue. I would highly recommend both Fuel Fixer and Attila again if anybody runs into this issue...

Thank you to Marton who came to my rescue when I accidentally filled my A Class with unleaded petrol instead of diesel. Marton arrived within 20 minutes of me calling on a Unday evening, and had the tank drained and ready for me to get back on the road within 15 minutes. Although Inhope I personally never have to use the service again, I would definitely recommend Marton at Fuel Fixers to anyone who makes the mistake of filling up their car with the wrong fuel type.

Fuel fixer you deserve the highest praise. For the first time in my long life I did the unthinkable and filled my tank with the wrong fuel. Your service from the first call was calming, courteous, reassuring. When Mercedes, who I had warranty with, wouldnt give me a quote nor get someone to me within less than an hour your wonderful Robert Kilary was with me in 20 minutes. He was so calm and immediately got the car moved to a safe place on the garage grounds so he could get to work and resolve the problem. All done within 45 minutes. He even filled my car(with the correct fuel) after he had drained it which I thought was a great part of the service. You and he turned a most stressful situation in to one of quiet resolution. I am so delighted to recommend you to anyone found in this most unbelievable scenario. Thank you so much. Incredibly efficient service.

Like a true idiot managed to put diesel into my GSXR750 through inattention whilst in Perth approximately 80 miles from home. My insurance breakdown cover contacted Fuel Fixers who arrived within a couple of hours. The delay was only due to the operative, Gabor, already being on another job. Though unfamiliar with my bike, Gabor, was very professional and took his time to examine and understand how the fuel system on my bike worked. Gabor very efficiently drained my fuel tank and the fuel line removing all diesel from the system. This involved removing one side of the bodywork to do so which he did with care. Upon putting the supplied fuel, I was very lucky in that my bike very quickly cleared itself and once filled up I was able to complete my journey home. I cannot commend highly enough both Fuel Fixers for the service provided and Gabor for his professsionalism, efficiency and happy nature.

Excellent friendly service, well impressed and would happily recommend Fuel Fixer.

Googled for alternatives and Fuel Fixer came up. Could not fault the service, no waiting in long queues to be spoken to, very prompt service, with me in 45mins, and very prompt, kind and helpful service was received.

So I don't mess up often, but when I do it's big. I had half a tank of diesel already and decided to top up but filled up with unleaded. Then I drove 100 miles back home. I'm new to driving so didn't notice any performance issues and got back OK. About an hour later I went to go to the shop and the car wouldn't start. After googling for hours I was advised to check my fuel receipt which is when I found out what I'd done. I called your company and was not spoken to like the idiot I was. I was reassured and told that someone would be out to me in about an hour. About an hour later, a gentleman called BELA arrived and he was nothing short of amazing. Full of reassurance that I'd not ruined my car (no bullshit promises either which I appreciated). He did a full drain, flush and treatment of the fresh diesel he put in. The car is working fine now, I just need to change the fuel filter (recommended by BELA). it didn't cost alot and I'm back on the road. Cheers guys especially BELA.

I like many of You,had a very long day and put the wrong fuel into my car. I realised straight away as I pulled out of the petrol garage and stopped half a mile later as I knew the more I drove,the more damage I could do to my engine. Called fuel fixers,spoke to Alan,he was very helpful and said he can send Bence to me within an hour. Time was already 22:00 and considering I wake up at 06:00am ,an hours turnaround sounded amazing. Booked it and within 48 minutes Hence,a lovely smiley chap arrived. He explained what he was going to do and how long it was going to take,and reassured me that everything was going to be ok. The draining-emptying of my tank took 25 minutes with another 10-15 minutes of my engine cleanse and we were done. Paid on the spot and was on my way to the petrol garage to refuel with the correct fuel this time;) Bence was friendly, professional and super helpful would recommend with ease to anyone. Robert his trainee was also very polite ,I'm sure you 'll be great in no time. Thank you both very much

As I was on a Morrisons forecourt, there was a problem with them as to where he could do the job. He was told to push the car into the car park, impossible alone. I then made a great fuss and three men arrived to help. All that being done my car was drained and I was up and running fairly quickly. There is an added problem with Mercedes cars. Peter was polite professional calm and very helpful. Altogether a very good service. Thank you.

After searching the internet for someone to drain petrol out of our TDCI I chose FuelFixer based on reviews. So pleased I did. Peter arrived within 50 minutes and set to work draining the tank, followed by the filter and fuel lines. The hazard lights had drained the battery so he had to jump start the car and made sure the battery was well charged. He did an excellent job - thanks Peter.

Sunday evening 18th March 2018, snowing, freezing cold -4 easterly wind and I'd fully filled my diesel Subaru with unleaded. Didn't realise until it came to a stop 1.5 miles later. Looked at the receipt realised my STUPID mistake. Called FuelFixer and Tams came to fix the problem. Not easy as the Subaru has TWO seperate fuel tanks. He was brilliant. Explored every option and even had to take the seats out! Excellent service from the first phone call to the parting handshake. Thanks Tams. You are a good man!

I recently had the misfortune of mis-fueling my car with unleaded petrol when it is a diesel. I was recommended fuel fixer and after using there services I would highly recommend to anyone who unfortunately finds themselves in the same position. They came to my location within 30 minutes and explained everything to me before fixing my problem. Marton was very friendly and explained the process to me throughout. I filled my full tank up with the wrong fuel and drive about a mile before realising and fuel fixer managed to solve the problem and my car is now running absolutely fine. The only down side is the financial cost this will set you back (a few hundred) but its not much in comparison to the thousands you may need to fork out if it is not fixed straight away. :)

When my car wouldnt start after a trip to Fort Kinnaird I realised I had put in the wrong fuel - not for the first time. However this experience was much less painful. I was told someone would be with me within 60 mins and about half an hour later Gboras Szkely arrived - a knight in shining armour. He was friendly, polite and knew exactly what he was doing. He kept me informed every step of the way which I found very helpful and reassuring. I was on my way about half an hour later. Very impressed with the service. Gbor is a true gentleman.

The service I received from your company yesterday evening was helpful, professional, and efficient from the moment I made the call to you, through to getting the job successfully completed. I unfortunately put petrol in my Deisel car, at the Morrisons Service Station on Ferry road Edinburgh. My new car is only 2 months old so I was very distraught at my mistake and the potential damag I had done. Lukily, Morrisons recommended your company and Im absolutely delighted Gabor was able to rectify the problem for me. My thanks also, to the person who handled my call, who was very reassuring and professional and helped calm me in my panic! Gabor reiterated this manner when he arrived in reasonable time, and kept reassuring me it would be ok whilst working on my car in a fast, friendly, professional and efficient manor. I will be forever grateful Gabor was was able to sort the problem for me. It was a huge relief waking up this morning and the car starting and running in a seemly normal way. Hopefully, I will never personally need your service but will not hesitate to recommend your service to friends and family. Thanks and Kind regards

My first point of contact on the main number was Allan who was very calm and reassuring with regard to the error on my part and my circumstances. He said that an engineer would be with me in about 20 minutes which I thought was remarkable and very optimistic, however, Szekely Gabor was with me in 20 minutes, FANTASTIC. Gabor was excellent, he explained the procedure required to correct the problem together with the timescale to complete the job and, as the temperature was around 3 degrees with snow on the ground, he sat us in his clean van with the heater on for the duration. My location was Crew Toll Edinburgh, EH4 2NT and after completing the job we started the car and made sure that it was running smoothly. I completed my journey home, about 400 miles, without any problems and could not be more satisfied with the whole procedure and the work carried out

Experienced the sudden horror when I realised I filled up my diesel Land Rover with petrol. As it was the weekend, my normal mechanic was closed, but found "Fuel Fixer" on the web. To my surprise, they offered to come out that afternoon to get me back on the road. Gabor drove up to Aberdeen from Edinburgh that afternoon and did a very professional job getting my vehicle back running smoothly. I would have no hesitation in recommending FuelFixer to anyone who has had the misfortune of making this error.

I chose Christmas Eve and the A14 near Cambridge to make this easy but expensive mistake in a car full of presents. The chap on the phone was very reassuring, and Laszlo turned up ahead of the time I was given, by which time I had four of Cambridge Constabulary's finest about to tow me to the nearest lay-by. Laszlo took over, explained the process and sorted the problem in a friendly and unflappable way, even when the battery went flat and needed a jump start with two sets of leads. He then escorted me to the nearest petrol station and waved me off once he knew we were OK. These guys are a godsend if you are ever unfortunate enough to have it happen to you!

The engineer who came was Gabor. He arrived promptly to my location in Greenbank Road, Edinburgh. He was really helpful and professional. He explained the process at every stage and he did a very thorough and careful job. I had completely filled my diesel car with petrol and I had also driven for over a mile. He removed all traces of petrol from the tank and the fuel system. The car has been perfect since then. Great job

Incident on 21/11/2017 Ingliston filling station, Edinburgh- Jaguar Xtype SLO7VVS a sincere thank you for your prompt attention care and professional approach; not only clearing the contaminated fuel but ensuring the fuel injection system was not contaminated or blocked with air. The car ran perfectly and completed a return trip to Campbeltown after re-fueling. Your calm good humour transformed a stupid mistake on my part into a positive experience.

I cannot believe what I did! Never done it before but put petrol in my diesel car. Drove 25 miles like it before realising when I went to start the engine again, it wouldn't start! Panicked a bit, so called my breakdown recovery. They managed to get fuel fixer come out to me otherwise it would have been a tow home. They provided excellent service. I wasn't waiting long for Asolt from fuel fixer to arrive. He was a very kind, pleasant, helpful man. I cannot fault the service I received and most importantly my car wasn't damaged

I called FF out when I had put unleaded in my diesel tank when I was in Edinburgh. Gabor phoned me to apologise that he couldn't get to me within the time given when I'd first called (20-30 minutes) because of heavy traffic. When he did arrive (about 45mins) he was helpful, friendly and very efficient. The car was soon back on the road, none the worse for the incident. My credit card was, however, aching from the cost!

Don't know how or why but after four years driving a diesel I put 50 litres of unleaded in the tank at my local Sainsbury's. The staff there were brilliant and so were members of the public on the forecourt. Sainsbury's staff gave me a few numbers and the first one I called was Fuel Fixer and spoke to Alan. He was brilliant and reassured me that they could sort it for me. An hour later and Tom arrived in his Fuel Fixer van with all the kit and all the knowledge and experience to sort it out for us. He was very methodical an extremely pleasant lad, very personable and constantly reassured us. My Volvo XC60 has a "saddle tank" which made it a longer job to get every drop out.

I had the misfortune to call on Fuelfixer recently and was extremely satisfied with the manner, attitude and professionlism displayed by the Fuelfixer mechanic Marton. Although we had a long wait for him to arrive from the cental belt up to Inverness, when he arrived he drained the tank and had us back on the road within the hour. The alternative was to be towed 70miles to a garage back home on a Sunday not knowing if that garage would be capable of fixing the problem on the Monday which would meant another tow 16 miles to the next garage. Marton kept us informed during the draining process and had an excellent customer facing manner The wait was worth it and and both myself and my partner were completely satisfied with the service.

Fuel fixer were efficient and friendly - such a contrast to the first enquiry I made to the AA! Putting diesel in an unleaded tank is very enfuriating and what you look for is someone who can tell you straightaway that they can help - no signing up to year long contracts. Within the hour Gbor had arrived and was dealing with the problem in situ. It took less than around half an hour and the job was done and I was able to carry on with my trip with my mother to Blair Atholl. I would highly recommend Fuel Fixer if you are unfortunate enough to make the same mistake I did. Thanks Gbor.

We are a two-car family - one petrol, one diesel - and I always feared it was a matter of time until one of us put petrol in the diesel car. (It's much more difficult of course to do it the other way round, owing to nozzle width. When will manufacturers change nozzle design so that you cannot put the wrong fuel in BOTH types of tank?) I was very pleased with FUELfixer's service, though: Alan who took the call was friendly, polite and efficient; and Gabor, who carried out the work was similarly courteous, good-humoured and professional. The waiting time, at Braehead shopping centre in Glasgow on a Saturday evening, was impressively only 30 minutes, so I am very satisfied.

He went through exactly what they would do and how they would do and really reassured me and put my mind at ease that they would have me back on road and my car driving like new again so I could make my long journey home to Gloucestershire and that's exactly what happened. A lovely chap called Bence arrived within the hour who had come across from Bognor Regis to Poole to help us as we was stranded with my little girl and puppy in the car, he arrived on time and he got straight to work and had it all done in half hour. Bence and the company was amazing, they got me back on the road and my car running back to normal for my journey back to Gloucestershire that night, otherwise I would of been totally stranded. Thank you so so much Bence and FuelFixer I am so grateful. Marisa

I only had to wait about 30 mins as the engineer Gabor was a bit of a distance away. I had misfuelled in Livingston at the Lizzie Bryce. It was awful as I had filled the tank to the brim. This happened quite late at night. Out came Gabor to the rescue, he went through each step of the procedure and put me at ease and made me feel safe instantly. He was very polite and courteous and he had me back on the road in no time. Gabor drained the fuel put some diesel back in to my car. I reversed my car back to the pump and he even refilled my car. He was very gracious and I thank him a lot... A job very well done !! I'm very sorry I can't remember the guy on the phones name but thank you to you too.

I called out FuelFixer at 1830 last Thursday night in a panic after putting some petrol in my diesel vehicle. The man on the phone was very reassuring and although their engineer was over 100 miles away promised to have him with me in just over 2 hours. True to their word Marton Boncfoldi arrived exactly on time, was even more reassuring, explained what he was going to do. He was extremely professional and a mere 20 mins later the job was done and a still smiling Marton had my car fixed and ready for a long journey the next day. I have had no problems since and cannot thank him and FuelFixer enough for all their help.

Thank you so much your service was excellent, honest and straight forward from call centre to fix. Adam on the phone was helpful and honest with explaining my options ( which I went away and thought about). When I then called back to book an engineer all timings were spot on and Bela the mechanic was amazing, he was helpful, cheerful and professional. Many thanks.

I have a Motorhome rental company in West Lothian and recently had a customer return the vehicle after filling the tank with petrol instead of diesel. The vehicle was due to go out to another customer later that day and obviously couldn't be driven. I found Fuel Fixer online and called their landline number. I was immediately impressed with the call handler and he was able to arrange a technician visit within the hour. The technician Gabor arrived on site and had the fuel tank drained, cleaned, primed and added an additive to ensure the vehicle was going to be ok, in approx 1 hour. He was very pleasant and professional and I would recommend this company to anyone and if I ever find myself in this unfortunate situation again, I will not hesitate to contact Fuel Fixer.

Back in March I foolishly put petrol in my diesel Mazda whilst up in Glenrothes, Fife for a funeral, which was taking place the following day, hence my need for urgent assistance and after much ringing around I managed to get hold of Fuelfixer, who unlike some other companies stuck by there promise to turn up with an hours time, which impressed me as it was a Sunday. A most friendly and helpful guy called Mik arrived and immediately set to the task of emptying my tank and flushing the system so that within less than an hour I was on my way back to our hotel. Can't recommend Fuelfixers enough, especially Mik who ensured everything was ok and the engine was running as it should before he left. Roger Duncan, Bromsgrove, Worcs

A wee while ago I had put petrol in my diesel car. I felt silly when I realised I made the mistake. But I needed to do something. I got my phone out and did a bit of searching and FuelFixer came out first in Google. I phoned and within the hour Szilard arrived at the service station in Edinburgh. Szilard's service was not only quick, professional and useful, he assured me that I wasn't as daft as I thought I was. We had a few good laughs and he got me on the road again within an hour and a half from my initial call. He's a guy that still cares about true customer service and for a price that's really competitive! In need of someone to fix your mistake? You definitely need Szilard (or one of his colleagues).

I stupidly put 20.00 of petrol in my Audio A3 cabriolet. I didn't realise until it cut out half a mile away. I found fuel fixer online and scepticly gave them a phone, the guy on the phone was very helpful and reassuring, within 40 minutes Szilard picked me up, he was very friendly and a good laugh, and assured me that I'm not an idiot, I felt like one!! He drained the diesel tank and the engine and within half an hour my car was alive again! He done a fantastic job and it has been running like new ever since. I drive from Glasgow to Dunfermline most days and its still faultless. The sevice was only 200.00 and worth every penny, it was a fast and very friendly and professional service. I very highly recommend fuel fixer. Many many thanks!

Gabe came out well within the time scale that I got told. I could not fault Gabe, he was very nice, put me at ease and explained everything that he would do step by step. He explained the process in a way I could understand. . He even told me to get my jacket because it was cold, very thoughtful. I had to apologies to all my neighbours the next morning for me revving the engine so late at night to get the fuel through but it had to be done. This happened on the Monday night and my car was back to normal by Tuesday early evening after I had driven around and got the diesel back through the system. Definitely recommend Fuel Fixer

He was very friendly and efficient and within thirty minutes my car restarted. I cannot fault the service and would highly recommend it.

Hi Guys, How dumb did I feel after putting petrol in my diesel van? I finally came to a halt just before the traffic lights/pedestrian crossing approaching Queen Street in Edinburgh. I was very very popular with the other motorists. Slizard attended the scene well within the time scale that was quoted. First of all he put me at ease and I could laugh about the situation, he is very likeable and made me not feel like an idiot. He explained the process involved, the time each step would take and the possible outcomes. I had driven two or three miles so he had to go to the next level, at no extra cost. The price quoted was the price I paid. One of my colleagues found your company through an on line search and considering I was quoted 150 simply for a call out fee as standard by most, that is before even looking at the vehicle, recovery then drainage costs etc. Trust me 190 is a bargain as it includes 10 of fuel to get you on your way. I was back at work within 90 minutes all included. About Slizard: he likes kidney beans and his girlfriend likes peaches with ice cream. He is professional, courteous, patient and very efficient. Maybe tone down your vans a bit! Advertise recovery and other things. I saw people openly laugh at me with the FUEL FIXER logo all over, shhh

Szilard helped me when I bought my new car and put the wrong fuel in my car. Szilard spent a lot of time on my car. I mean I had already given up on my own car that I just got and had already accepted that it was broken but Szilard and his years of experience knew he was close to solving the problem. I mean I had just got the car and had given it a lot of ping on way home as you do. Which causes more problems but Szilard solved them all with a massive smile on his face. Not only would I use this service again (hope I don't have to) but would recommend to anyone and everyone 100%

A nice man who understood my frustrations and empathised accordingly. Fantastic service which went over and well above what i had expected to happen.

I was impressed by the service and friendliness of Slizard. He arrived at the fuel station within the hour. Actually I think it was 30 minutes. The draining of the tank was done quick and efficiently and at the side of the fuel pump. He talked me through everything as it was done. Even though the car had not been started after misfuelling, he still stayed while the car was run for a few mintes after correctly refilling the tank. Fortunately I had not run the engine with the wrong fuel and had only put in a litre on top of a quarter a tank before realizing my mistake. Hence there was not a full tank to empty. I'd recommend this service which was cheaper and fasrer than my breakdown rescue service had offered at the time. Slizard was excellent and very professional.

Szilard `arrived on time and set right to work draining a full 60 litres of unleaded petrol that I had pumped into my diesel powered VW van. Because I had driven about a mile after putting the wrong fuel in, he also had to make sure it was out of the fuel injection system as well. He got the van working perfectly and was a real lifesaver since I had to haul a lot of equipment that night to a job I'd landed some distance away from my home. Thank you for the great service. Great company--I'd use again in a heartbeat--just hope I never have to.

I made the mistake of putting the incorrect fuel in my MG and rang Fuel Fixer (I'd tried other phone numbers from my Googled list but these sounded the most professional and helpful). Within minutes of giving my location, etc I received a call from the person who would be coming to sort this out for me and he gave me the approx. time he would get to me. I have to say this man, who I think was called Atillla, was absolutely fantastic. He explained the process, how long it would take, etc but not only that, he was a really lovely friendly man. He made sure my car was absolutely fine before driving it away. I would not hesitate to recommend this service to anyone in the North area, which is the region covered by Atilla. I very rarely leave feedback but on this occasion I felt it only right to do after receiving first class customer service.

I had fuel drained from my car at the end on 26th September, The engineer that came to help (I think his name was Benle) was extremely polite, helpful and efficient. He then waited to see me drive off safely with no problems before he went on his way. Excellent service, thank you!

Sven drained the car of diesel on Saturday evening and the customer service was excellent. Very friendly and professional and really felt like he knew what he was doing. If it happens again (please no!) I'd gladly used Fuel Fixer again on the back of this experience.

I had to call on fuel fixers today after I stupidly put petrol in my diesel car! I called them and they advised me what to do, within 10 minutes they were with me. The drainers name was Sven, he called me when he was 3 minutes away, extremely friendly and polite, and reassured me my car wasn't going to go bang and I'd not done any damage, within 23 minutes my car was fueled up (with the right fuel!) and I was on my way. Thank you very much to Sven. Would definitely recommend these guys if needed. 10 out of 10 service.

Yesterday, 22nd Sept I had need of your companies services after half filling my diesel SKODA Yeti with unleaded . Overall the service was brilliant , with the technician calling to update me and arriving on site in only 30 minutes !!! . Attilla , your technician was superb , explaining the whole process and working very professionally , his happy friendly nature helping to ease my worries about any potential catastrophic damage to my pride and joy . As an ambassador for your brand he must surely be second to none . I will have no hesitation in recommending your service in the future , and as I have already said , a huge thank you and a pat on the back especially to Attila himself .

After stupidly putting the wrong fuel in my sons car Attilla arrived within 25 mins of calling the central number. He called before he arrived as promised, and within 40 mins the fuel was drained and I had enough for about 100 miles of driving. He was polite, courteous and very efficient. What a professional service. I can't recommend Fuelfixer more highly. I just hope I won't need their services again!!

Filled diesel Range Rover with petrol...limped home without realising what Id done. Then feared the worst. Online search found FuelFixer, and whilst they took 3 hours to arrive, when they did the service was friendly, attentive and professional. The tank was drained, fuel filter cleared and primed and the car started first time!! Fantastic job...highly recommended.

I was a bit sceptical about calling Fuelfixer out. I thought, is it worth it, but then when you weigh up what it would cost to get towed to your mechanic and then for them to do the draining, it was a no brainer, especially as I filled up with Petrol in my Diesel at midnight on a Friday/Saturday. I would have been waiting until Monday. 40 minutes later, Attila Puskas was draining out my tank. Brilliant name, brilliant guy. An hour later all done, including checking that both sides of the split level tank, that I didn't know about were all clear. great service guys, I hope I don't do this again, but I know who to go to if I do.

I made the mistake of filling up with petrol in my diesel Nissan Pulsar. After ringing the Fuel Fixer and arranging for a local person to 'fix' it, I was subsequently contacted by Attila (the engineer) with an estimated time of arrival. He then called closer to the time, to give me a further 15-20 minutes notice. The fuel was drained efficiently, engine cleaned, computer error cleared, all within 45 minutes, by the professional and helpful engineer. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this service again. It was cheaper than being towed and then having my fuel drained at a garage. It was also meant that my car problem was resolved within a few hours, rather than waiting a day or two. It eased the pain of my costly mistake! Thank you very much.

Szikla did an excellent job, removing all contaminated fuel, replacing with diesel, and not leaving until he had started the car and made quite sure that it was running well. The job took about an hour to complete - making sure that the fuel tank was as completely drained as possible. The car has now been running well for a week. Szikla arrived 2.25 hours after the phone call I made - as expected since he was finishing a job 30 miles away. He was polite, keen to do a good job, and thorough. The job was well-priced, and about half the price that another company charged when the same thing happened 2 years ago. I would thoroughly recommend Fuelfixer for fast response, great service, and very competitive pricing. Thankyou, Szikla and Fuelfixer.

In over 46 years driving I had never made the mistake I made Friday 26th February 2016 of miss fueling a car, stuck about 60 miles from home and my destination at the side of the A14 in the dark and freezing cold. Fantastic service from Szilard Szikla, he turned up exactly when he said he would, the job took the time he said it would, he was polite, courteous and most importantly, non judgmental, I was feeling bad enough about the situation. Have already recommended the company and Szilard to other people, and will continue to do so. Further to this, they were cheaper and faster than the AA, despite being talked into an expensive upgrade by the AA whilst at the side of the road, they couldn't/wouldn't do anything until between 09.00 and midday the following day. Now I wonder what will happen when the AA membership comes up for renewal?

Not covered by my 'Breakdown' service Green Flag, who put me in touch with their contractor. He quoted 230 plus VAT. But that was being picked up and dropped off home that night at 1am and returned to sort the vehicle in the morning. Not great. Found you online on my mobile. Your technician Sven arrived in 25 minutes, drained the tank, flushed it through and re-filled with diesel. Car started no problem. Home in bed by 1.30am with problem solved and nightmare over for 166 inc VAT within the hour! A truly spectacular service in the middle of the night. Car has run perfect ever since it happened three weeks ago.Best customer service ever, no rip off, does what it says on the tin. Could not recommend it more highly.

Thanks Sven for all your help today. Not only did you arrive earlier than quoted, you pushed my car away from the petrol pump, filled up your jerry can with Diesel for me to drive my car back to the pump and stood by the pump so I could pay for the used fuel in one transaction. Then waited to check everything was ok before leaving. You really helped make the whole experience easier to get through. Thanks again.

Thank you fuel fixer for saving 700.00 that quoted by BMW to replace everything contaminated by petrol in my new BMW 5 series yesterday. So far it is working fine and hope it is going to be alright.

Put petrol into my diesel car at Gatwick today. Filling station called Fuelfixer who arrived within 30 minutes. Problem solved within a further hour thanks to Sven who was courteous, conscientious and thorough. Now back on the road again. I would certainly recommend Fuelfixer to friends who make the same mistake.

It was late on a cold January night when I made that awful mistake. Luckily I was given a card by the petrol station guy and all I had to do was phone to book the service. I was a little nervous about giving my card details over the phone to a complete stranger but I had no choice and I needn't have worried. I had the wonderful Sven come and drain the petrol from my diesel car. What a life saver. He was with me very quickly. Luckily I was close to home so I had walked home and he very kindly came to collect me and we went together to the service station. I was able to sit in the warm of his van while he took care of the whole thing. He was courteous and helpful and I would certainly recommend the service to others in the same situation. I now have the company details in my phone but I sincerely hope I won't have to call them again. Thank you Sven.

Very expensive evening today after putting petrol in my diesel car. I realised at the petrol station before switching the car on again. Via RAC and Reliance Recovery I came to Fuelfixer. The response time was two hours which was probably down to it being Saturday evening. Sven the engineer kept me well informed about his arrival time and arrived within a few minutes of his advised time. It then took around half an hour and a nice chat with Sven to get me back onto the road again. He even waited until I had started the car again and got going again. I hope it will never happen to me again, but I will now keep the phone number for Fuelfixer in the car. Just in case ... Thank you Sven

on 10/01/21016 I managed to put Petrol in my Diesel Car, not realising my mistake I drove 20 miles round the M25 & M2 to go on a winter Cycle Ride. After loading the bikes back in the car the car wouldn't start & I realised my mistake, I found Fuel Fixer on the internet & they promised me someone to help within the hour. 45 min later Sven arrived & found us shivering in the car, he was very professional & explained the whole process to us. He soon had us back on the road in the minimum time

for the first time in 18 years of driving I put the wrong fuel in, and not just a bit half a tank of petrol in my diesel car. I rang Fuel Fixers who took my info, assured me I'm not as thick as I felt, realising before I even turned it on makes life far easier and gave me a price then and there on the phone. The lovely Tom then rang and gave me an estimated time of arrival and arrived within mins of his estimate even though he'd come west on the M4 through torrential rain and restricted speed limits. He explained everything to us and chatted away while he worked and within about half an hour we were all done and back on the road. The price was exactly as stated on the phone, no hidden extras! Very happy with the service thanks again Tom! I'd also rung my breakdown company and they wanted to charge 50 more than Fuel Fixer had quoted!

On Christmas Eve I somehow made the stupid error of putting unleaded in my diesel car. This started a huge amount of panic due to it being christmas, and whether I could actually have anyone out to fix the car. I left the car at the petrol pump (I realised before I started the engine my error, and so left it where it was) and within the hour someone was with me. Within 1.5hrs I was home and safe, with just my pride a little damaged! A very efficient service. The price was reasonable, to be honest I did not shop around I was just very happy to have my car fixed within an hour on Christmas Eve. When talking to the workers at the petrol station I heard that some companies charged up to double the price. So I was OK with this! I would recommend Fuel Fixer, they were very efficient, helpful and friendly.

On the Monday of the 28th of December I stupidly put the wrong fuel in my car Somehow managed to get back to the petrol station that I got the Petrol from and the people in the garage were great they had the number for people like me making a silly error of a company called Fuel Fixer which I called and could not believe how quickly that got to me and fixed my car I can't praise the company enough I could not have had a better experience Mr Szikla the man who came out to fix my car impeccable job when you need help at 5 in the Morning after making a stupid mistake I would not hesitate to call the people at Fuel Fixers or recommend Them I know that if i had somehow got to a garage I would probably have paid a lot more the reason I say that is the fact that I thought it was going to cost me an absolute fortune but fuel fixer are very reasonable in my experience in terms of how much it costs a bargain thank you so much

I put petrol in my diesel car on the evening of 26 Dec 15. I was recovered to my home town and at a loss as what to do. A search of the internet brought up Fuel drainer. After reading the website I decided nothing ventured, nothing gained. I placed the call at 1152 pm. The communication from Fran (I think that was his name) the technician, after the initial call was great. He had a 2 hour drive to get to me and arrived at 2 pm. By 2.30 pm my beloved Galaxy was running again. Fran was polite, competent, efficient and just professional. To anyone out there reading this, remember this companies details as they are brilliant and I have no hesitation in highly recommending them. The price was well below what I was expecting to pay in the Ford Garage. Thank you Fran and thank you Fuel Drainer or Fixer. Happy New Year.

I was a complete idiot and managed to do what I always thought was stupid having seen other people do it in the past, petrol in a diesel car.... The Shell garage called their man to no avail. Whilst beginning to despair at the prospect of having the car towed to Volvo and a rather large bill my wife discovered Fuelfixer who said they have carried out the process on Volvo's before. You came along and within no time had fixed the problem. Extremely helpful, polite and just an all round top bloke. I can not recommend highly enough, I have saved their contact details in case I take leave of my senses again....

I will be your muppet this week. Yep, petrol in diesel, and yes I did start the car and move it. About 200 yards from the forecourt to my driveway. Out of the way you see. So there was mistake 1. Its a Freelander. YOU MAY BE THERE ALREADY!! Mistake 2 I contacted Land Rover assist. After all I am paying 80 a month so why not? Dumbo! you moved it so they won't touch it but we will arrange for it go to the dealer. Mistake 3 So its off to the dealer. I will name them Gordon Lamb. And that was when all the mistakes mounted and the pain came. A figure quoted came into my ears. 8000.00. Ears turned to tears. The car is probably worth no more than 12000.00 all in. What were they planning. To fit a new engine and gearbox for Christsake. Thank god for insurance Phew. But first it was moved to an insurance approved repairer first. So I could have a hire car. But my guess is that they will not get 8000.00. If they do I am in the wrong profession. I will come back in a next life as a pirate. At least they do it as a job. I think it is based on how much you might be able to pay given the luxury car badge. Fancy car and you get fleeced. Sorry I did not get to you first. The only bit of sense I have read so far

Oh Basil, Such a story of deceit and deception. I'm very sorry to hear about your situation and I think it's scandalous how the dealerships (specifically Land Rover and Mercedes) are allowed to get away with trying to fleece decent people like yourself. Every time I hear a story like this it gets me really hot under the collar as it is not just unnecassary - it's actually fraud! You don't need to have your entire fuel system replaced. As a leader in the contaminated fuel industry we have conducted fuel drains on tens of thousands of vehicles. Not one of them - EVER - has come back to us after a successful drain and said that the wrong fuel had wrecked their vehicle requiring them to have parts replaced. If I were you I would do the following: 1. Try to get the vehicle out of the dealership/garage and get it sorted out yourself. If you can't then... 2. Question what the 8,000 is for - exactly. Demand to know why each part is being replaced. Ask to see the checks that were carried out which say that a part is defective needing replacement. Request to have the replaced parts back (they are your property) so that you can have them independently tested for faults (I wouldn't actually bother getting them tested unless you are feeling particularly litigious but I'd probably have them up on ebay to recoup some of my losses). Demand the part serial numbers to ensure that they actually are replaced. I've given this advice to a lot of people and in almost all cases the dealership - knowing it's trying a fast one on someone who won't accept it - backs down and suddenly "discovers" that getting everything replaced isn't actually necessary. I really hope that you manage to put these guys in their place. Let me know what happens. The Fuel Man

A MASSIVE thank you to FUELfixer! I had to call them out after panicking when I put petrol into my Diesel engine. I didn't realise my mistake until the car started to judder, I'd already driven for 5 miles by then. I managed to get home and went onto the Internet to investigate, that was when I panicked even further reading all the horror stories. I rang a number of companies and FUELfixer were the first to respond. A cheerful chap called Robin turned up about 40mins after the initial call. He explained exactly what he was going to do, he was very positive and filled me with confidence with regards to the outcome.He drained the contaminated fuel from my vehicle, started the engine a few times without success then finally added a fuel lubricant (I think), which seemed to do the trick. I was over the moon and really impressed with Robin and the whole process. The performance of my car since the disaster of the wrong fuel has been fine. I have no reservations about this company or the service and recommend them to you should you find yourself in the same predicament.

SVEN dealt with my problem today. He kept in touch with me while I waited for him to arrive. He was very understanding of my predicament and patient. He explained what he had to do and took his time with me. His conduct and professionalism was outstandingly good. Your service overall is extremely good and I will certainly recommend you as and when necessary

Your team are brilliant. Andrew went the extra mile (!) to try to get me towed to the next layby, but nobody was available. He made a number of calls. I called the RAC and they were terrible. Andrew got his most experienced engineer to call me to advise me, then arranged the engineer. He then sent me Sven, who sorted me out great he did the change on the spot rather than arranging a more dangerous towage. And there you have a German there with a great sense of humour. Ive misfuelled before, so he offered me a loyalty card! He did the job quickly, safely and efficiently, and the car started immediately, and its running smoothly since. Thanks very much indeed.

Many thanks to Sven for helping me resolve this embarrassing problem yesterday. First person I have met in my life who deals with cars who explained every detail of what he is doing to me so that I am at peace. And he did not set off until he knew the car was perfectly running. Very fast and clean work. Many thanks Sven and Fuel Fixer.

Friday 5 June: I had misfuelled (partly, not a full tank by any means) my car earlier in the week and after much needed advice from this website and a certain amount of helpful and yet conflicting advice from other people, I knew that I would not have peace of mind without having the tank/system drained - even though I had "only" put around 1 gallon of unleaded into an already half-full tank of diesel and then topped it up to full. My lovely "old" VW Passat had been running smoothly and sounding fine for the few (around 50-60) miles I had done since my mistake - but I did feel that I was waiting for it to have a a problem, so I did call Fuel Fixers today. Within two hours, Robin had attended my vehicle - patiently putting up with my changing the location he was to come to and also answering the questions that both and my elderly mother bombarded him with - carried out the process and was on his way to the next job on this early Friday evening. He was very very efficient and friendly - but incredibly professional too. Thank you all round and especially Robin for such a wonderful service!!

Dear Fuelfixer Just a note to say thanks to the two chaps that assisted me on Sunday evening at the Boreshead service station Crowborough. I had been waiting for over three and half hours for a RAC call out, eventually this was passed to Fuelfixer who probably recieved a slight cold shoulder from me due to the frustration and the long wait. The chaps dealt with the problem and managed to overcome the 4X4 Yeti tank issues in good time and got me back on my way. A studid error on my part but a good service from you, its a shame I cant say the same for RAC! Karen

First class service from Sven, who was a bit delayed due to traffic on the M25 but kept me up to date with a couple of phone calls. The job was clean and efficient, and it turned out that Sven is from Bavaria but, sadly, not an FC Bayern fan like me! It made for some good conversation, and certainly made me feel less annoyed at putting a tenner's worth of petrol in my Diesel during what was dozy morning moment! I chose Fuel Fixer after reading all of the feedback, and I can honestly say that there are some companies out there who do what they promise and offer great and friendly service at a great price. Hopefully I won't need to call on your services again, but if anybody else out there manages to make the same fuelling foul-up I would happily recommended Fuel Fixer and Sven in particular. Great stuff!

Realising my mistake of putting petrol in my diesel car quite quickly, I stopped the car, looked on Google and found Greenways / Fuel Fixer. They were much cheaper than what I had been quoted by the RAC, so I called them to ask for assistance, as I had broken down in a small rural village. The lady that answered the phone was very friendly, and assured me the matter could be dealt with very quickly, and after taking my location, told me an engineer would be with me within an hour. I was then called by the Greenways Engineer (Robin), to let me know he was on his way and to re-check my location. Within an hour the Engineer Robin had arrived, he informed me of the action he was going to take, and set straight to work. The whole process took just over 30 minutes and the engineer was very friendly, making sure me and my 8 year old daughter were ok before he left. Greenways staff made what was a traumatic experience a little more bearable. I would definitely recommend Greenways to friends and family in the future.

I filled my diesel jag with unleaded, then drove 100miles on it! the diesel already in it was obviously sitting below the unleaded, and luckily must've been the exact amount required for my journey! When I next tried to start the car, a couple of days later, there was obviously something very wrong. There were (unspecific) error codes and the engine looked like it was trying to jump out! Szikla from fuel fixer turned up shortly after I called, and drained and flushed the tank and fuel filters. The car still didn't want to start. And in all fairness I thought I had damaged the engine and expected to hear that he had done all he could (I would have easily accepted this, from seeing the issue and the way that the car was acting). Szikla however, refused to be beat, and persevered battling against my engine gremlins. After some time he beat them and got my engine running as smoothly as ever. I have had no problems since. I can not thank him enough, for the effort he made in sorting me out. And I highly recommend this company for their quick response and professionalism. Great job guys!

I can highly recommend Fuel Fixer. Having put 20 litres of petrol into a hire car, as my petrol car was off the road, I could not believe how foolish I was. It was only after driving the car for 20 miles, a 62 plate Insignia, that I realised my error. With a call to Fuel Fixer, a convenient time was booked and the their operator, Larson, arrive on time. Larson was cleanly dressed, told me how he was going to deal with the situation, and got straight onto it. Within half an hour, he'd removed all the petrol, put about 10 worth of diesel in the car, and it was running fine. He also checked for error codes on the dash board, which he said he'd be able to deal with, but that was not necessary. Thank you Fuel Fixer. You rescued me from a stupid mistake, and saved me several hundred s that Vauxhall would have charged me.

I have a Kia Sportage 05 reg and was low on diesel when I stupidly put in 27 litres of unleaded fuel. I rang the first number online I came to and they said it would be 175 to drain, plus new fuel of 20. They arrived when requested and were five minutes into the drain when the technician said that lubricant was draining out and it would cost either a new fuel pump and fitting at Kia garage around 1700 or buy new lubricant online as they were cheaper than them by 15 but I got it from them at a cost of 322.80. My total bill came to 552.80. As I cannot see any other problems like this mentioned on your page I am thinking was I done!

Hi Sally-Ann, Unless I've misunderstood you I unfortunately think you've been done. I do know that there is a particular company that tries to sell an additive lubricant to unsuspecting customers for anything from 200 to 500. Ironically you can buy a very similar and just as effective additive from any petrol station kiosk for about 10. My advice is to file a full report to Trading Standards as this practice is completely unethical and gives the industry a bad name. The Fuel Man

I cant speak highly enough of the professionalism of the company and their representative Adrian who got me back on the road. When it suddenly hit me that Id put petrol in my diesel car I really didnt have a clue and thought it would be a nightmare and a very expensive mistake. But Google got me to FUELfixer and the problem was quickly on the way to being resolved. The message was put through to Adrian who rang to say where he was and when he would be with us. And when he got here, he knew exactly what to do and did it quickly and efficiently. And the icing on the cake was that the cost was much less than I expected. Brilliant service all round.

I cannot recommend FUELfixer too highly. I am retired, have been driving for almost 50 years and can honestly say that I have never before misfueled a car; I still cannot get my head around what possessed me to put unleaded fuel into my Vauxhall Astra on Saturday, other than that I was in a hurry and it was cheaper than diesel! I then made matters worse by driving 2 miles home as I needed to make other arrangements to travel to an urgent commitment; I arrived in clouds of smoke and much popping and banging. I spent the afternoon worrying about the outcome of my stupidity and wondering whether there was any way of avoiding the huge restoration costs I had previously heard of. I thought I would have to bite the bullet and take the car to the local Vauxhall dealer on Monday. By chance I found your website and my mood immediately improved when I read the feedback page, particularly when I appreciated that I was by no means alone in my "senior moment". I phoned the call centre at about 7.30 pm and was quickly put at my ease by the person who answered the phone. He explained the process and that my car could be recovered with little more than a fuel additive and without expensive equipment changes that a main dealer would most probably find "necessary". He also confirmed that there would be no extra charge for a call-out on Saturday evening. Jason from Barry Island arrived when predicted at about 9.30 pm; he explained that he was from FUELfixer Wales and had driven 75 miles to reach me! He worked on the car for about an hour, letting me watch and learn, siphoned out the unleaded fuel, replaced it with enough diesel to get me going and an additive to clean out the injectors and got the car started. Starting proved a bit of a challenge in view of the residue of petrol remaining in the injectors, but start it did. Jason then took it on a short road-test. Please thank Jason for me for his friendliness and professionalism; he, in fact the whole experience, has gone a long way to restore my faith in the UK service industry. The following morning I filled the car up (correctly with diesel this time!) and drove for about an hour to allow the additive to work. I have now driven about 50 further miles and it appears to be performing again as normal. Of course this is still an expensive mistake to put right but represents a fraction of the cost a dealer would charge. It has focused my mind not to repeat my folly but were I to I would not hesitate to call for help from FUELfixer and I will tell my friends and family to do the same.

Had my Mondeo recovered after it dying about a quarter of a mile from my house. I had made the big mistake of putting 40 of petrol in my diesel car and a bigger mistake of thinking it was a fuel blockage and revving the engine to clear it! Called Fuel Fixer and they had Brian over to me within an hour and the tank emptied not long after. Thanks to the amount of petrol that must have circulated round the pipes and filter, it took a good while to get the car working properly but Brian wasnt going to leave the job half done and stayed until the car was up and running correctly. Its and expensive mistake to make but it was my mistake and I have to take it on the chin. Thanks to Brian, I at least have mobility again!. Thanks Brian.

I stupidly put 20 of diesel into my ford focus(petrol) car drove 20 yards out the forecourt to find my car decided to cough and splutter before cutting out. I was then given a push back into the forecourt and decided to try and syfen the diesel back out of my motor which I failed to do therefore I decided to top the tank up with 35 of petrol. The car wanted to start but decide against this therefore I didn't have a clue where to start. Basically I found fuel fixer on the Website and I would highly recommend this company to anyone as Michael from fuel fixer provided an excellent service. He contact me with his eta which I basically request, he gave me a courteous phone call before arrival appeared bang on time, explained exactly what the process was to empty my tank and the time it would take to do this. Hopefully I will not be so foolish in future but would not hesitate to use this company time after time and I will be saving the contact number in my mobile to give to other people in distress like I was when this happened. Thank you so much for the excellent customer service and for once I felt as though I wasn't ripped off!!

I've just used your company after putting about 10 litres of unleaded in my diesel Toyota Auris. I was going to take a chance and drive it having been advised to top up with diesel by the garage where I filled up. Having done that and driven home about 9 miles I realised that I wouldn't have peace of mind. I felt like my car had an infection. So I rang your company and they sent out Dom. He reassured me that I hadn't damaged my car and that I had done the right thing. I feel as though my car has been cleansed and I now have peace of mind, and the cost....well it's nothing compared to what I might have had to pay out. So thanks, I'm very grateful Kathryn

My wife handed me the keys to HER car and the shopping list. We placed our two infant children in the car and she asked me if I had any questions. I had been entrusted with not only our children, but her car and doing the weekly shopping - wow! Can you imagine how I felt when I stopped at a petrol station and fueled the car, carried on on my merry way, only to get about a mile and the car dies? That is when I looked at the receipt and saw I had put petrol in her diesel car! Needless to say, I was a little worried, but the Fuel Fixer crew sorted me out on the roadside and I ended up getting the correct fuel in, doing the shopping and getting the kids home safe and sound. My wife asked how the day went, "Uneventful really, how was yours?" Thanks guys - really great service!

Daniel your operative came to our house to pick me up and take me down to where the car had been left and quickly sorted the problem and got the car started again. From contacting you to Daniel arriving was within the quoted time of 1 hour that you gave me and very happy with his level of work and assurance that no damage was likely to have occurred.

I used Fuel fixer today, they were very efficient on the phone arranging for a call out, which was done within 30 minutes. Ray came out to me and was fantastic, informative, sorted out the problem v quickly, and also waited until I had re fuelled and drove away. Felt very re assured by this company and told the BP garage I was at about them. Overall a fantastic service, after all my panicking and worry.. Thank you.

I put unleaded into my Diesel SUV, we got the number for fuelfixer off the Internet and Mick arrived at the house within 30mins of our call. Overall a very pleasant and efficient service, my car was running again after just 30mins. This was also much cheaper than the garage or roadside assistance companies. I would highly recommend this company!

I accidentally put unleaded (about 10 litres) in my 2010 auto diesel passat estate (130bhp). The tank was about half empty at the time. As I was desperate to get to my next location, I paid for the unleaded then filled the car as full as I could with DIESEL in the hope that this would dilute the mix. I have not experienced any problems in the last 3 weeks but have not let the fuel levels drop to below 5/8ths. However I am still concerned about any long term effects or the fact that the car may just pack up on me... Advice appreciated J

Hi John, You will probably get away with this amount of unleaded in your diesel. Depending on how much you have driven you have probably used up all/most of the unleaded by now. Unfortunatley you have undoubtably shortened the lifespan of your major fuel system components. This being the case I would recommend that you have the fuel filter changed to ensure that if there are any metal filings in the system they will not get to your injectors (the fuel filter will be degraded due to running petrol through it). Additionally, the use of a fuel additive wouldn't go amiss in your case. Hope this helps. The Fuel Man

On Thursday 6th February 2014 I mistakenly put petrol into my diesel galaxy. Having realise my mistake before I set off, the garage very quickly gave me the number of fuel fixers. The very nice chap arrived within 20 minutes, set to, in continuous pouring rain, drained the tank, and then the car was pushed back to the forecourt to refill. It all took about an hour to do and I was off and going again after that. Thank you very much for a most efficient service. I would reccommend this company. I was worried about using a company I had never heard of, as it is possible to be taken advantage of, in these circumstyances, but I felt it was worth the money for the service. Thank you. Jill

We mistakenly added over 7 Litres of petrol to our diesel car (Ford Galaxy) without realising it. The car was then driven on a number of short trips before we realised what had happened as it started shuddering! We managed to make it to a petrol station and tried adding more diesel but the car wouldn't start again. We tried both the AA and RAC but they couldn't get anyone to us that night so we phoned Fuel Fixers and they had someone out promptly. 30 - 40 mins after arriving they had drained away the contaminated fuel, flushed the system and and got our car going again. Great and very reassuring service from the person who helped us (Mic - a very nice man). And the price was cheaper than either the AA or RAC quoted so more than happy. Would thoroughly recommend the service and it was a real life saver. We managed to do all the wrong things and it still worked out.

Five days ago I absent mindedly topped up my diesel Audi Allroad with petrol, about a two thirds petrol/ diesel ratio. I drove it to the point of almost breaking down 10 k's later when I realised my mistake. Had it towed to an Audi service centre. The quote to fix it was $23,130.00 ( Australian dollars ) then learned my insurance policy specifically does not cover misfueling. The quote included 18k for parts and 4k for labour. I had the car towed to a trusted mechanic friend, he drained the tank and flushed diesel through the fuel system, the car started first time with no sign of any damage, and I owe him for 3 hours labour, about $300. So that was a saving of $22,830.00 on the Audi centre quote, they ought to be ashamed!

Hi Nicole, I wish this type of story was the exception rather than the rule. Unfortunately there is a general trend where main dealerships really do go over the top when dealing with misfueling issues. I'm glad that you managed to sort it all out without having to get a new mortgage. The Fuel Man

On Sunday we decided to go out in my car, (BMW 2:0 ltr tdi engine), noting that by the time I got home the fuel be low. So I decided to fill the car on the way through our nearest town 12 miles away, the tank was just over a quarter full. Used Morrisons as I normaly do. As it was around lunch time there was a small queue. I pulled along side pumps on my left, knowing the fuel line will just reach the filler on the right of my car. Taking the fuel line from the BLACK holster I put 50's worth of fuel in. At the cashiers I said 50 of diesel on pump 5 please. She did my card payment and Morrison saver card. It was sunny but the wind was very strong, the front of the oncoming storm due to hit later that evening. After about 10 miles I thought there was an occasional misfire from the engine. Smelt my hand I had held the fuel nozzle in and it smelt of diesel. Being a former mechanic I tend to think the worse, thinking maybe the fuel station had the wrong fuel in their diesel tank. Another 5 miles on I decided to pull into a layby as I was not convinced the odd misfire was due to gusting wind. Got the fuel receipt out and horror of horrors it said unleaded. Still in disbelief I took off the fuel cap and smelt. No doubt it was petrol. The temp guage had run at normal and apart from the odd misfire there had been no warnings. I walked to a garage (B.P.) about 400 metres ahead. They knew of no one who could sort the problem out. A car dealership whose car sales were open said I was welcome to park in their premises overnight and they would take it into their workshops the following morning and give me a quote. We got a family member to come and pick us up. That evening in desperation I 'trolled' the web for inspiration. Finding your site I phoned. We made an appointment for midday the next day (Monday 28th Oct). This was to avoid any tail end of the storm. We met at the dealers premises, whom I had notified of the new plan), in dry and sunny weather. Your technician, Jim, was very courteous and knowledgeable. Even to the extent of asking to go to the B.P. garage and fill up to maximum so he could check the seals on top of both the tanks did not leak. After confirming this he replaced the floor panels which are also sealed, then replacing the rear seat. I spent many years in the motor trade and at 70 it was my first ever 'misfuel'. It is my belief some one deliberately put the two nozzles the wrong way round in the holsters as there is no way both could be used at the same time. As an OAP the cost of lost fuel and the expense of calling you out has lightened our pockets BUT you saved us a lot more as the dealer was also talking of having to replace the injectors and high pressure pump if not more items. Top marks and I've already passed your cards to both the garage and dealership and several other folks. Thank you for such good and honest service.

I very nearly fell for the scare tactics by my main dealer telling me that anywhere between 3000 and 5000 was going to be the bill for my stupidness. Please speak to Fuel Fixer first , by all accounts they deal with over 400 calls a day so they know what they are talking about

I just wanted to thank you for a fantastic service! I -unbelievably after 25 years driving- put unleaded into my rover streetwise diesel car! Needless to say she died after 9 miles (she got me to bottom of my estate). Panick stricken I rang the garage I went to and confirmed it was unleaded so I then went onto google and looked for help when I found this site. I called at 7pm and by 8.30 myself and my car were safely home. What superheroes!! I have had no problems since and am really careful filling up now:) Thanks again guys, great job and really competative prices. Lisa

Well I feel I must place a review on this service due to the high degree of well priced efficient work that this company has provided. I stupidly filled up with 40 worth of petrol today, drove approx. 1 mile back home and inevitably the car would not start again OMG instant panic??? instantly turned into Basil Faulty then I realised my mistake you have filled it with PETROL you nutter. Rang the company that I bought the car off its a RAV 4 by the way so its a well known Toyota dealership in North East. they quoted 250 then went on to say it would have lots of other possible consequences leading from this due to the damage it can do. again instant panic. Then my wife said why don't you look on the net Hummm good idea!! after reading more woeful tales on the net my blood pressure was rising, then thank the lord I looked on this site. I rang and spoke to a very informative person BEN in office who gave me reassuring information arranged for a mechanic to visit me. Carl came at 8.30am and by 9.15am it was running without any issues what so ever no fuss no hidden extras just honest approach and good efficient work was carried out cost 160 for work and received 20 worth of diesel as well total cost 180. well done to all involved. would highly recommend this service complete satisfaction. at this stage I returned to a normal human not frantic cracker jack that I had become. Well done Fuel Fixer thanks a lot. :-)

Having just put 75 of unleaded onto a quarter tank of diesel I handed the problem over to FuelFixer. I left the car keys with the garage as I had to go off for the day, paid by Visa over the phone and picked up the car later that evening. Given the stress levels it was a welcome relief to have such an excellent service. Car is running fine.

Yesterday afternoon after some shopping I decided to fill up my Corsa with diesel, went to a SHELL forecourt and guess what ...?! Soon I was leaving the SHELL station start to hear a slim zuuuuum inside the car, a few meters ahead the engine sounded strange and jumpy, then black smoke coming out in the rear. Manage to get home ( about a mile ) checked the Shell fuel receipt - UNLEADED !! Shocking ! Went online and found website FuelFixer. Rang them, a van promptly arrived ( around midnight ), with a polite chap called Luke. And in about 45 min the transfusion in the car was done and runing on DIESEL ! AGAIN! Marvelous! Many Thanks. If hapens to you avoid driving your car and call them straightaway

I did the stupid thing - unleaded petrol in my diesel engine & managed to get quite a lot in the tank before the jaw dropping moment I realised what I'd done... After a long google search I came across Fuelfixer. Wasn't sure if this was a good idea until I read this feedback page and saw how they'd helped out so many people. So I called, had a really friendly chat with them & in just over an hour the car was being fixed! Excellent service all round & no problems since. Thanks loads for everything & you're highly recommended by me (except I hope I won't be as daft again too soon...!)

Fuel fixer were amazing, they came out even quicker than they thought they would when the AA and the RAC were quoting a day's wait, were super fast, helpful, great with fraying tempers and upset kids and made us feel happy and relaxed and less like the plonkers we are.

This is one organisation that I have no problem recommending, the other my brother-in-law who is here in the UK from the USA was driving my car and decided to fill it with petrol, that was nice of him I thought, but diesel would have been better. I call Fuel Fixer explained the problem and it was a complete fill from empty, they gave me a time and a quote both of which were spot on, technician arrived when they said he would and 40 minutes later they were on their way. No extras no problem amazing service fully recommend them to anyone

Many thanks to Darren and his team. Yesterday, I managed to fill the whole tank (Hyundai Sante Fe) from empty with unleaded fuel. Moved off from the service station, but the journey may have lasted around 2-3 minutes when the car seemed to lose power. Pulled over and turned off the engine. Tried to start the car with no success. I clearly recall picking up the pump for Shell V-Power Diesel then thinking to myself "...you don't use this, so get the standard diesel!", then taking out the pump next to it. Girls were asking what was wrong with the car. As I turned around to answer, it then dawned on me that there could be a remote possibility that I filled up with the wrong type of fuel. So I checked my receipt, which to my horror, clearly stated "V-Power unleaded". Luckily we (the two young children of 7 and 4 and I) were only 20 minutes walk from home, so I told them of daddy's mistake and that we should go home and I'll think about what to do on the way. At home I did a little research and it seemed that going the dealer route may result in a sizeable bill, most likely in the thousands. Called up fuel fixer after looking at several such companies on the net. The technician gave me adequate notice so that I could leave home and go back to the car and wait for their arrival. The 1st technician was able to drain the fuel from one of the tanks, but the access to the 2nd fuel tank was under the rear car sets and he was unable to get it open - required a specialised tool. A quick call to his colleague and an arrangement for another technician to assist. The 2nd technician arrived and completed the job. These guys are very friendly and professional. They kept me informed during the whole process and even allowed my girls to watch and irrigate them ;-) I will be keeping their number in my phone to recommend to family , friends and work colleagues.

The children still recall the day "daddy put petrol instead of diesel", but also remember how friendly Darren was. Regards, Steve

(Nice touch telling me to go and get a coffee while I waited!) Despite pouring rain, you did a great job. It was the least I could do to get you a coffee to express my thanks while the petrol was drained away. (And he really does take 5 sugars in his latte!!!) The car has been absolutely fine since then. You are a great firm to deal with in difficult circumstances. Best of luck!

Hi, After living away from home for 6 months at a time , and now home for good i thought i would buy the car of my dreams so i bought a vw scorocco tdi 140 diesel 09 16k. And yes, i put 18 liters of petrol into my car to fill it to the brim i reckon around 1/3 mix. I left the car overnight after driving home approx 1/2 a mile. The car started in the morning, i had booked it in to a independent vw garage for an oil change just for peace of mind, so drove to it as normal, low revs at 50mph in 6 gear as i wasnt in a rush, for 10 miles, got to the garage and stopped. The meachanic came out tried to start the car (sounded rough) he staight away asked PETROL????. Fuel tank drained, filter etc, 100miles driven, no probs so far, however i feel that i have lost faith in my car, i listen to the engine all the time and am paranoid i will break down, i drive at low revs all the time(great for fuel ecnomy). However your website as given me hope, the only thing i worry about is that it didnt stall staight away, until stopped, so i am sure a fair amount passed into the pump/lines etc. Anyway thanks for this website, and your dedication to your job.

I filled my A6 up with 80 worth of unleaded and drove off...I got a mile before it stopped. This was on the night of the London riots and I was in a postcode that was burning and being looted. After greenflag got the car home on a lowloader I started to panic at the thought of a 4000 plus bill. Phoned fuel fixer the next morning and they put my mind at ease....no guarantee but a good chance it would be ok. They turned up at the door bang on time and the mechanic got to work straight away. It took quite a while (the petrol comes out a lot slower than it goes in). After draining the car did not want to start but the mechanic was determined to get it going and was not going to leave until it started. After lots of bleeding and stripping of pipes it started....I,ve never shaken a mechanics hand before I was just so happy. Car has been running perfectly since then. Can't thank them enough,highly reccomended. Steve London SE18

From my initial call to a very helpful and knowledgeable lady and the 1.5hrs response time to my car this indeed was impressive. The engineer who attended my car was polite and professional got my car running in less than an hour, he also called me to let me know where he was and how long he would be which was fantastic and I had my 4yr old daughter with me. I would highly recommend this company if you are unlucky to be in that situation. Mrs Andrea Magill, Watford
