What should I do if I put petrol in my diesel car in Gold Coast?
Don’t start the engine. If it’s already running, pull over safely and switch it off. Call 1300 369 215 and we’ll confirm your location and arrange the right mobile service.
Can you drain diesel from a petrol car in Gold Coast?
Yes. We can attend your location, remove contaminated fuel, and flush the system as needed to help get you back on the road.
What happens if I start the car after misfuelling?
Starting the engine can circulate the wrong fuel through the fuel system and increase the chance of damage. Tell us if it was started and we’ll advise the safest next step.

We’re mobile across Gold Coast and surrounding suburbs. If you’re unsure, call 1300 369 215 and we’ll confirm coverage straight away.
How long does a mobile fuel drain usually take?
Most jobs take around 20 – 30 minutes depending on the vehicle, the amount of wrong fuel added, and whether the engine was started.

Yes – but don’t start the vehicle. AdBlue contamination can cause expensive issues if run through the system, so call us as soon as possible.

In many cases, yes. Once contaminated fuel is removed and the system is cleared as required, the vehicle can usually be started and checked.
