£89 is the call-out. An AdBlue tank drain and flush is quoted on the phone before a technician travels. If the SCR system needs component replacement — dosing injector, pump, tank or catalyst — that is separate, and you will be told before any work starts. If this is a job we cannot fix at the roadside, we will tell you that on the phone rather than after we arrive.

Contaminated AdBlue in Brixton London — what is different locally
Most calls in Brixton London come from a vehicle already parked on a residential street, which means the work is a planned on-site job rather than a recovery, and the technician can take the time to drain properly instead of clearing a live lane.
Independent SCR specialists as well as franchised dealers operate near Brixton London, which matters because not every inducement requires main-dealer tooling to clear. 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. AdBlue freezes at around −11 °C, and London 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.
Location changes the logistics of this job and nothing else about it — the severity is set by what went into which tank. Usually resolved by a drain and flush, with a fluid-quality check afterwards. Coverage runs across London on the same basis, with volume and disposal priced in before anyone sets off.
