## Petrol in the AdBlue tank Musselburgh — 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 | Petrol in the AdBlue tank
 | Direction | Into the AdBlue tank
 | Typical cost | £280–£850 typical total, from a £89 call-out
 | Time on site | About 100 minutes

£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 Musselburgh
- Do not start the engine and do not cycle the ignition repeatedly.
- Ventilate — petrol vapour in a vented AdBlue tank is a real consideration, especially in a garage.
- Do not add AdBlue on top.

## Petrol in the AdBlue tank in Musselburgh — what is different locally
In and around Musselburgh 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.

From Musselburgh the main-dealer options are limited by marque rather than by distance, so it is worth establishing on the call whether a reset is even needed. HGV traffic through Musselburgh changes the arithmetic — tank volumes an order of magnitude larger, disposal costs to match, and a loaded trailer that cannot simply be left.

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 Lothian sees sustained cold, the first thing to establish on a level warning in January is whether the fluid has simply not thawed yet.

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.
