## Diesel in the AdBlue tank Arundel — the severity verdict

**Key facts**
 | Severity | Component risk Frequently needs SCR component work rather than a drain. Quoted before a technician travels.
 | What went where | Diesel in the AdBlue tank
 | Direction | Into the AdBlue tank
 | Typical cost | £260–£750 typical total, from a £89 call-out
 | Time on site | About 90 minutes
 | Call-out | From just £89 call-out fee
 | Helpline | 01295 380724, 24 hours
£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.

## What to do right now in Arundel
- Do not start the engine. The dosing pump runs on many vehicles as soon as the system is awake.
- If it is already running, switch it off now rather than driving to a garage.
- Do not top it up with AdBlue to dilute it. Dilution does not undo hydrocarbon contamination of the pump and lines.
- Call 01295 380724 and say how much diesel went in and whether the engine has run since.

## Diesel in the AdBlue tank in Arundel — what is different locally
Rural approaches around Arundel mean a stranded vehicle can be some way from the nearest garage, which is precisely why diagnosing the fault before moving it is worth the twenty minutes it takes.

Specialist SCR workshops in West Sussex are scattered, and the nearest one to Arundel may not be the nearest one that can actually clear this particular fault. A mixed fleet around Arundel 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 West Sussex sees sustained cold, the first thing to establish on a level warning in January is whether the fluid has simply not thawed yet.

Local conditions shape how this is done, not whether it can be. That is a question about the fluid and the tank. Frequently needs SCR component work rather than a drain. Quoted before a technician travels. Coverage runs across West Sussex on the same basis, with volume and disposal priced in before anyone sets off.

## Common questions

### Will I need recovery from Arundel?
Only if the SCR system needs component work that cannot be done where the vehicle is. That determination is made on the phone before anything is booked.

### Can this be finished at the roadside in Arundel?
Frequently needs SCR component work rather than a drain. Quoted before a technician travels. If it cannot, you are told on the call rather than after somebody has attended.

### Is this just a drain like AdBlue in the diesel tank?
No, and anyone who tells you it is has not looked at the system. That direction is a fuel-side drain. This one is hydrocarbon contamination of a precision dosing circuit, and it frequently needs component work.
