# AdBlue in screen wash tank in Canterbury? Drained where it stands
**Short answer**
Put the keys in your pocket and ring 01295 380724. AdBlue in the screen wash tank in Canterbury is a drain-and-flush job done at the roadside, on the forecourt or on your drive — no tow, no garage. Call-out from £89, roughly 45 to 90 minutes on site, price agreed first.

AdBlue in the washer bottle leaves a crystalline film on the glass and attacks seals and paint, so the bottle and lines are drained. That is why the ignition is the one thing not to touch.

## The drain itself, step by step in Canterbury
They bring the fuel. Once the tank is empty and the lines are flushed, the drainer adds enough of the correct fuel to get the engine running and to reach a filling station, then checks for warning lights before handing the keys back.

## Questions worth asking before you book a drain in Canterbury
Most bad experiences with a fuel drain come from not asking these up front. Ask them all.

- Is the vehicle over 3.5 tonnes, and does that change the price?
- Can you work on the forecourt, or does the car need to be moved?
- Do you take card payment at the roadside?
- What is the total, not just the call-out, if it is a straight drain?
- Do you bring clean fuel, and is it included?

## What to do right now
- Leave the ignition alone — on many cars even unlocking it powers the fuel pump.
- Push the car clear of the pump if needed, with someone steering and the engine off.
- Call 01295 380724 and give the fuel, the amount and your exact location.
- Ask for the whole price, not just the call-out, and agree it.
- The drainer drains the tank into a sealed container and flushes the lines.
- Fresh fuel goes in, the engine is started and the waste fuel leaves with the drainer.

## Where drainers work in Canterbury
Across Canterbury, Kent the common locations are the filling station itself, a lay-by a mile or two down the road, and home. If you are on a motorway hard shoulder, call the emergency services first; the drainer can meet you once the vehicle is somewhere safe.

The same van covers Sturry, which usually keeps arrival times short across this side of Kent.

**4.8**
 out of 5 ★★★★★

Fuel Fixer, the company behind Wrong Fuel Drain, holds a rating of 4.8 out of 5 from [2,190 reviews on Trustpilot](https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/www.fuelfixer.co.uk), 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 in Canterbury.

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.

## Common questions

**Will you bring fuel?**
Yes. The drainer adds enough of the correct fuel to start the engine and reach a filling station.

**Can I drive to a garage with adblue in the screen wash tank?**
No. Every mile pushes the fuel further through the pump and injectors. A drainer comes to you, so there is no reason to move the car under its own power.

**Can you drain a hire car or a company car?**
Yes. Tell the hire company or fleet manager too; many prefer a drain on site to a recovery.

**Do I need to move the car off the forecourt?**
Only if it is blocking a pump. Push it into a bay with help and the engine off; the drainer can work there.

**What if I have already driven home?**
Leave it on the drive with the engine off and call 01295 380724. The drainer can do the whole job at your house.

**Does insurance cover adblue in the screen wash tank?**
Many policies exclude misfuelling. Some breakdown cover and optional add-ons include it. Check your policy wording before assuming either way.
