## Petrol in the AdBlue tank Broxburn — the severity verdict

**Key facts**

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 Broxburn

## Petrol in the AdBlue tank in Broxburn — what is different locally
In and around Broxburn the job is usually done at the filling station where the mistake happened, in a bay away from the pumps, with the fluid drained into sealed containers and taken away.

Specialist SCR workshops in Lothian are scattered, and the nearest one to Broxburn may not be the nearest one that can actually clear this particular fault. A mixed fleet around Broxburn 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.

Where a vehicle is on contract or on a job, the cheapest outcome is almost always the one that avoids a recovery movement, even if the roadside work costs more per hour. AdBlue freezes at around −11 °C, and Lothian 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.

The geography affects arrival time and disposal, not the outcome; that is decided by the contamination direction and whether the engine was run. Frequently needs SCR component work rather than a drain. Quoted before a technician travels. Coverage runs across Lothian on the same basis, with volume and disposal priced in before anyone sets off.
