Short answerAdBlue in diesel Portland: if you have put AdBlue in diesel, do not start the engine — call 01293 248666. AdBlue is water-based and sinks to the bottom of the tank, so a drain and flush before the engine runs almost always fixes it.

## AdBlue in diesel in Portland — what is different locally
Around Portland the vehicle is as likely to be on a forecourt or a verge as on a driveway, so the first question on the call is whether it is in a safe position to be worked on where it stands.

Distance to a marque dealer from Portland is the single biggest variable in what this ends up costing, and it is worth settling before anything is towed. A mixed fleet around Portland means a mixed set of failures: nozzle errors on the commercial side, bottle errors on the domestic side, and quality faults from bulk tanks on both.

The honest comparison is the total: call-out, work, any parts, and the time the vehicle is standing. All four are discussed before travel. Because Dorset sees sustained cold, the first thing to establish on a level warning in January is whether the fluid has simply not thawed yet.

Whether this job is a roadside one depends on the direction of contamination rather than on the postcode. Normally put right by a drain and flush, provided the engine has not been run. Coverage runs across Dorset on the same basis, with volume and disposal priced in before anyone sets off.

## Common questions

### How quickly can somebody get to Portland?
Attendance in Portland is normally same day and the helpline runs 24 hours, but the time that actually matters is the time on site, which for this job is about 60 minutes once the assessment is done.

### What if my vehicle is already at a garage in Portland?
That is fine. The work is mobile, so it happens wherever the vehicle is standing — a forecourt, a yard, a driveway or somebody else's workshop.

### Does this damage the SCR system?
No. This is the opposite failure. Nothing has entered the exhaust or the SCR circuit — the AdBlue is in the fuel side, where it does not belong. Your SCR system is untouched.
