Local drainer for adblue in screen wash tank in Radford Coventry
Stop, switch nothing on, and call 01295 380724. Local drainers across Radford Coventry handle adblue in the screen wash tank every week: tank out, lines flushed, clean fuel in, all where the vehicle is parked. Expect 45 to 90 minutes on site and a call-out from £89, with the full price given before they leave for you.
Here is why it matters. AdBlue in the washer bottle leaves a crystalline film on the glass and attacks seals and paint, so the bottle and lines are drained.

When a drainer arrives in Radford Coventry
Expect a van with a pump and a sealed waste tank. The drainer drains the tank, flushes the system through, refuels with enough clean fuel to reach a forecourt, then starts the engine and lets it settle. You do not need a garage and the vehicle does not move until it is ready.
Five things to ask a drainer before they set off
A drainer should be happy to answer all of these on the phone. If they will not give a price before travelling, ring someone else.
- Can you work on the forecourt, or does the car need to be moved?
- What is the total, not just the call-out, if it is a straight drain?
- Is there an extra charge at night or at the weekend?
- How much more if the engine has already been started?
- Will you check the filter and pump if the engine ran?
What to do right now
- Keep the engine off and put the keys somewhere you will not absent-mindedly use them.
- Move the car only by pushing, with help, and only if it is blocking a pump.
- Phone 01295 380724 and describe what happened.
- Confirm the quote — call-out from £89 — and the arrival window.
- The drainer empties the tank into a sealed container and flushes through.
- After a refuel and a test run, the waste fuel leaves with the drainer for licensed disposal.

From the drainer's notebook
Fuel Fixer, the company behind Wrong Fuel Drain, 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 in Radford Coventry.
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
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 you work at night in Radford Coventry?
Yes. Drainers work 24 hours a day, including weekends and bank holidays.
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.
Will the car need a service afterwards?
Not after a straight drain. If the engine ran on the wrong fuel, the drainer will tell you whether the filter should be changed.
What does it cost in Radford Coventry?
The call-out starts at £89. The full price depends on the vehicle and how far the fuel got, and it is confirmed on 01295 380724 before anyone travels.
