🚗⚠️ Important Alert for Drivers! ⚠️🚗
Heads up, motorists! If you’re in the Kirkcaldy, Fife area, pay extra attention when filling up your tank. Reports have emerged of several vehicles breaking down after using premium diesel from a local supermarket station. The affected fuel appears “milky white,” indicating possible contamination with water or chemicals.
👉 What does this mean for your car? According to Gordon Wallis, a fuel expert, modern diesel engines can be severely damaged by even tiny impurities. This can lead to hefty repair bills, reaching up to £7,000!
🛑 What to do:
1. If your car loses power right after refuelling, stop driving immediately.
2. Keep your receipt and try to retain a sample of the fuel.
3. Seek professional assistance as soon as possible.
Fuel Drainage Scotland has already handled multiple breakdowns due to this issue, though it seems isolated to Kirkcaldy for now. But it’s a good reminder for all drivers to stay vigilant. Suppliers need to ensure proper quality control to prevent these incidents.
