# AdBlue in the Diesel Tank in Rosehill, and What to Do Next

One thing matters most when AdBlue is in a diesel tank, and that is if the engine has run since.

If it hasn't, keep it that way, whether the vehicle is around Rosehill itself or out in Stoke Heath.

Keep nothing on, ring 0333 366 0103, and count on a proper flush after a drain, done just where the vehicle stands in Rosehill.

Already started? Pull over when you safely can, then turn it off.

Step one remains unchanged, even though the job is bigger.

Wherever around Shropshire it happened, one of the cases below fits yours.

## AdBlue in a diesel on a Rosehill forecourt

You are at the pump, the nozzle or the bottle still in your hand, and you have just noticed the cap you opened was the wrong one.

Anywhere around Rosehill, then — Shell, Morrisons, or anywhere else nearby.

What it means: this is the ideal spot to find out.

Still in the tank, and nothing pulled onwards: that is where the AdBlue is.

Clearing the petrol pump is no excuse to run it — so don't get back in.

Ask the staff to help you roll your car into a parking spot, keep the receipt or the bottle, then ring us from the forecourt.

Our equipment is explosion-proof and fine on a busy forecourt, and so a vehicle that can't be pushed clear is emptied where it is at the petrol pump.

## AdBlue in the diesel tank at home in Rosehill

For days the dash had been nagging you.

You bought a bottle, poured it in on the driveway, and only when you put the empty bottle in the recycling did you look again at the cap.

Drives near Chapel Lane get it as much as any other street.

What it means: if you haven't driven since, this is nearly as good as the forecourt.

AdBlue does not mix with diesel; it sinks to the bottom of your tank and waits there. Overnight doesn't change that.

Next: stop an early move by keeping the keys indoors, then ring us.

Our engineers drain the vehicle on your driveway, whether that is in Rosehill or out in Heathcote.

Even at night, the pumps are quiet enough for a residential street.

## AdBlue in a diesel and already driving in Rosehill?

A short way after filling up, your engine started misbehaving: rough running, smoke, lost power, lights on your dash.

Possibly it was on Mount Lane, maybe on the way out towards Stoke-on-Trent, under 25 miles away.

What it means: the system has sucked the AdBlue in.

It has been through the filter and your lines and, the further you went, into the high-pressure pump and the fuel injectors.

More driving, more restarts: further it goes.

Do this: stop anywhere sensible, then turn the engine off.

Leave at the next junction — not the services further along — if you're on the M54, under 15 miles from Rosehill.

Starting it again to test achieves nothing — AdBlue doesn't clear itself.

Roughly what distance did it gone? Say so when you call.

## A hire or company car with AdBlue in the wrong tank?

A week ago, it was new to you.

Your own vehicle either does without AdBlue or puts it somewhere different, so no one told you the AdBlue cap sits just beside the diesel.

Across Shropshire, no one is safe from it.

The upshot: exactly as above, divided by if it ran, only with an added step.

Any work on your car often requires the owner's approval under hire or company agreements.

Settling it before the van turn up is quicker, so phone the hire company or your fleet manager, then us.

If you're stuck in the car park at Prees, or by Maurice Chandler Sports Centre, while you wait for an answer, leave the vehicle off.

## Not sure it was AdBlue in the diesel tank, Rosehill?

Honestly, the best answer may be that you think it did.

A faint ammonia-like smell lingers near the filler, the bottle seems too light, and the cap you took off is a blur.

The gates of Stoke-on-Tern Primary School in a hurry, say, or someone's driveway out in Crickmerry.

Put simply: a spill near your filler leaves your engine no harm.

The diesel tank with AdBlue in it is a different matter.

If there is AdBlue in that tank, starting your car would suck it in, and it wouldn't tell you which either.

Next: assume it went in, and leave your engine off.

Checking a tank that proves free of AdBlue beats emptying one once it's been run — so phone and describe to us what you noticed.

## The common ground in each Rosehill AdBlue drain

The job begins the same way, whatever the case.

Filling station, drive, The Red Lion's car park or a road beside United Reformed Church — our van comes to the vehicle, and three answers follow: which liquid, what amount, and whether it has run.

Your price is given over the phone, before a van leaves, and the replies shape the work.

A thorough flush follows the drain. With petrol it is routine; with AdBlue it's essential, because deposits build up and certain metals are attacked, and neither rinses out unaided.

Then comes the filter — cleaned, or replaced when needed — then clean diesel, and a test of your car.

Where your motor hasn't run, allow about half an hour on site, for most jobs.

The final step is firing it up.

Our test that it runs smoothly on new diesel comes before our technicians leave.

Our engineers do the whole job where the car is, and permanent damage is very uncommon if it has been noticed early.

Nothing is paid upfront, payment is made on the day, and you get what your insurer asks for: an engineer report plus a VAT invoice.

Many policies include misfuelling, so check yours while the van travels.

Where it sits, that is where it gets cleared.

Phone and check rather than guess if you are by Stoke-On-Tern Village Hall, on a boundary, or anywhere tricky to pin down.
