Misfuel Service

Emergency Roadside Misfuel Service

Putting the wrong fuel in your car is an easy mistake, that thousands of motorist’s make each year, so you’re not alone. Westbourne can solve the problem quickly and effectively and normally there is no lasting damage caused.



Here’s what to do if you've put the wrong fuel in:

1. Don't try to start the car

  • This is important - starting the car can cause permanent damage and mean costly repair work.
  • Remove the keys from the ignition instead.

2. Get to a safe location

  • Put the car in neutral.
  • If you’re still at the petrol station, get someone to help you push the car to a safe spot.

3. Book online

We aim to be with you within 90 minutes although waits can be longer at peak times.

  • Our Mis-fuel team are on-hand to come out to you.
  • We'll drain the wrong fuel and put in the right one.
  • You'll have enough of the correct fuel to get you going.


Cost for a standard fuel drain on cars and vans up to 3500 is £249.99.
