ABOUT

Filling up with Diesel in a Petrol Audi is a regularly occurring mistake to make. And its solution varies according to a variety of things. In the event that you want to find out what you must do to sort it out then stay with me.
Listed here are the most important factors to keep in mind when making a decision whether to have a fuel drain:

1. Exactly how much Diesel have you put into the Audi, considering that the fuel tank capacity of the Audi A4 Quattro is probably around 60 litres?
   1. Hardly any Diesel, less than 3 litres of Diesel in a Petrol A4 Quattro will in most cases not really be a big problem. Experience has demonstrated to us that quantities under 3 litres (which is 5% of the entire fuel tank capacity) is frequently capable of being sufficiently diluted through entirely topping the rest of the tank with Petrol.
      It is relatively rare to find a vehicle having difficulties due to less than 5% wrong fuel contamination. Please remember it's infrequent - certainly not impossible to encounter. There are actually certain motor vehicles that won't stand any amount of contamination in the slightest.
   2. Anywhere between 3 and 6 litres of Diesel in the Audi (5 to 10%) is a 50/50 scenario. Our expertise has proven that as many people get away with this as those who don't. Whenever you are trying to decide whether or not to chance it and simply top it up bear in mind that it is exactly like wagering your car on black - you have a 50/50 chance of it working.
   3. Anything in excess of 6 litres of Diesel in a Petrol A4 Quattro should straightaway be removed seeing that your likelihood of driving with this amount of contamination is undoubtedly lower than one in 50 - really big odds.
2. Put Diesel in a Petrol Audi and drove it: Have you detected any performance troubles since putting the wrong fuel in your A4 Quattro? If that's the case, get it drained no matter the volume of Diesel or the contamination percentage. Proceeding to drive running an automobile that is currently beginning to suffer from the consequences of wrong fuel contamination will typically end up in more harm affecting the fuel system components.
3. Do you need security?
   Simply get it removed. Regardless of the contamination ratio, there is always some amount of danger connected with operating a Petrol engine on Petrol contaminated with Diesel. Probable implications of driving on the wrong fuel normally include the engine refusing to start, running unevenly, loss of power, wearing of the high-pressure pump, damaged or blocked injectors, and the like. These are a few of the most typical Diesel in Petrol symptoms, and should you notice any of them stop driving and get it removed right now.
