Anywhere along Queen's Drive or else on the road to London — under 5 miles away. Meaning? Your fuel pump has sucked the AdBlue up. Distance decides how deep it gets: filter and pipework to begin with, then the high-pressure pump and each injector. Every restart, like each mile, pushes it on. What to do: pull over where it's safe to do so and switch off. Exit by the next junction — not the services beyond — if you're on the M1, under 10 miles from Brownswood Park. It won't have cleared, so there's no point restarting to find out. Roughly what distance had it go? Say so as you call. ## AdBlue in the wrong tank: hire, lease and company motors You have had this car hardly a week. On your own vehicle, AdBlue is missing or elsewhere. On this one, the cap is right by the diesel inlet — a surprise to you. It can happen to anyone, anywhere around Greater London. Put simply: one extra stage on top of the cases above, and those turn on if it's run. The owner often needs to sign off the work, under many rental and fleet agreements.

Truthfully, the best answer might be that you think so. A slight ammonia whiff hangs around your filler, the bottle feels too light, and which cap came off is hard to recall. Maybe it happened in a hurry at the school gates at Parkwood Primary School, or on a friend's drive in Holloway. Meaning? Drips around the filler never reach your motor at all. In your diesel tank, by contrast, AdBlue damages it. You can't tell which by turning the key, and doing so will suck in any AdBlue that is in your tank. Next: assume it got in, and leave your motor off. Describe what you noticed on your phone. A clean tank looked at counts as a happier outcome than an already-run one drained. ## What every AdBlue drain in Brownswood Park has in common Every situation gets the same opening to the job.
