AdBlue does not mix with diesel. It is water-based and diesel is not, so the two separate — and because AdBlue is denser, it settles to the bottom of the tank. This matters more than it sounds. Because there is no mixing, there is no dilution, and because there is no dilution the "small amount" reasoning that works for petrol in diesel does not apply here at all. Densities: AdBlue around 1.09 kg per litre, diesel around 0.83. The heavier liquid goes to the bottom. The fuel pickup is at the bottom.

Dealer coverage across Nottinghamshire is thinner than the map suggests once you need a specific marque, and a wasted recovery to the wrong workshop is an expensive way to find that out. Vans and pickups around Cotgrave carry larger AdBlue tanks, are refuelled by whoever is on shift, and lose a working day rather than an evening when they are off the road. The price that matters is not the call-out, it is the day the vehicle is not earning — which is why the job is quoted in full before anyone travels. AdBlue freezes at around −11 °C, and Nottinghamshire gets there most winters. Frozen fluid is not spoiled fluid — the tank and lines are heated by design and it thaws on its own — but a genuine level or quality fault reads much the same on the dash, which is why the two get confused. 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.
