About Wrong Fuel In The Car
Wrong Fuel In The Car is a mobile wrong-fuel rescue service operating across the UK, 24/7, 365 days a year.
We do one thing well: removing the wrong fuel from vehicles on-site, wherever you are — roadside, at home or on a forecourt. Petrol in a diesel, diesel in a petrol, AdBlue in the tank or contaminated fuel: we drain it, flush the system and get you moving again, usually within 45–90 minutes.
Whatever you drive and wherever you are in the UK, keep the key out of the ignition and call 0800 170 0644. We quote the full price before we set off — no surprises when we arrive.

Rated 4.8 out of 5 ★★★★★
Fuel Fixer, the company behind Wrong Fuel In The Car, holds a rating of 4.8 out of 5 from 2,190 reviews on Trustpilot, on a profile claimed since 2017.
Across recent reviews, the themes customers raise most often are staff who stay polite, professional and reassuring during what is a stressful situation, and how quickly a technician arrives and gets the vehicle back on the road.
The most common criticism is price. Some customers have felt the cost of an emergency drain was steep for a job that takes under two hours, and that is fair comment on an emergency call-out. It is why the misfuel call-out fee now starts at just £89 and why the full figure is quoted on the phone before a technician sets off — so nothing about the cost is a surprise at the roadside.
