£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 Radford Coventry

Petrol in the AdBlue tank in Radford Coventry — what is different locally
Street parking in Radford Coventry means the job is done where the car sits; the only real constraint is headroom and whether the filler side faces the kerb.
Radford Coventry has main-dealer coverage close by, so the honest answer on some jobs is that the roadside work is the drain and the reset belongs elsewhere. Most vehicles here are family cars and small vans, so the AdBlue tank is measured in litres rather than tens of litres and the dilution maths is unforgiving.
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. Cold mornings in Coventry produce a run of calls that turn out to be nothing more than fluid below −11 °C in a tank that has not yet warmed, and telling that apart from a real fault saves a wasted visit.
None of the local detail changes the verdict: the direction of contamination decides what is recoverable, and the postcode does not. Frequently needs SCR component work rather than a drain. Quoted before a technician travels. Coverage runs across Coventry on the same basis, with volume and disposal priced in before anyone sets off.
