AdBlue in the petrol tank in Eaton Norwich — what is different locally
Kerbside space in Eaton Norwich is tight, so the van is positioned to work from one side and the drained fluid is bagged and removed rather than decanted at the roadside.
Because Eaton Norwich sits inside a large urban dealer network, a vehicle that truly needs a dealer-level reset is not far from one — the question is whether it needs one at all. Because the local fleet is light, the volumes involved are small — and small volumes are recoverable if the engine has not been started.
Downtime cost is usually what decides between a mobile fix and a recovery, and it is worth being blunt about it on the call rather than after the van arrives. Because Norwich 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 Norwich on the same basis, with volume and disposal priced in before anyone sets off.
