Incorrect fuel in your Mercedes CLS 250 CDI? Petrol in your Diesel Mercedes?

ABOUT

Filling Petrol in a Diesel Mercedes is a common mistake. And what you have to do about it hinges on several things. In the event that you want to find out what you need to do about it then keep reading.
Listed below are the main factors to take into consideration when determining whether to have a fuel drain:

1. How much Petrol did you put in to the Mercedes, taking into consideration that the fuel capacity of the Mercedes CLS 250 CDI is most likely approximately 59 litres?
   1. A tiny amount of Petrol, as little as 2.95 litres of Petrol in a Diesel CLS 250 CDI will generally not really be a big problem. Experience has demonstrated to us that an amount under 2.95 litres (almost 5% of the whole fuel tank volume) is quite often capable of being completely diluted by means of totally filling the rest of the tank with Diesel.
      It is rather rare to come across a vehicle experiencing issues with under 5% wrong fuel contamination. Please remember it's unusual - in no way impossible to find. You can get a number of motor vehicles that don't stand any level of contamination in the slightest.
   2. Somewhere between 2.95 and 5.9 litres of Petrol in the Mercedes (from 5 to 10%) is more of a 50/50 scenario. Our experience has revealed that as many people get away with this as those who don't. Whenever you are deciding on whether to risk it and just fill it up bear in mind that it is exactly like gambling all of it on black - you have got a 50/50 possibility of it working.
   3. Anything in excess of 5.9 litres of Petrol in your Diesel CLS 250 CDI ought to straightaway be removed seeing that your likelihood of driving with this level of contamination is certainly below one in 50 - seriously big odds.
2. Put Petrol in a Diesel Mercedes and drove it: Have you spotted any performance troubles after putting the bad fuel in your CLS 250 CDI? If that's the case, have it drained regardless of the volume of Petrol or even the contamination percentage. Still running a vehicle that is currently beginning to suffer from the effect of wrong fuel contamination can likely bring about progressively more damage affecting your fuel system components.
3. Are you interested in security?
   You should get it emptied. Regardless of contamination ratio, there is invariably some extent of risk connected with driving a Diesel motor on fuel contaminated with Petrol. Possible final outcomes of driving on the incorrect fuel include things like the engine refusing to start, running unevenly, loss in power, degradation of the high-pressure pump, worn out or bunged injectors, and so on. These are some of the most frequently seen Petrol in Diesel warning signs, and should you notice any of them stop and have it removed as soon as possible.
