Accidentally put AdBlue in your fuel tank instead of your diesel tank? This is a common mistake with newer diesel vehicles and needs to be fixed immediately. AdBlue is corrosive and can severely damage your fuel system, injectors, and fuel pump if not removed straight away. Our mobile technicians provide fast AdBlue removal and fuel tank drainage across Melbourne, safely draining the contaminated tank onsite so you avoid expensive repairs and get back on the road the same day.

Review what Our Customers Say!
Cannot recommend these guys enough!!! After accidentally putting the wrong fuel in my car I thought it was going to cost me over $5k or even be written off, I had multiple sources say It was probably a goner. Nic reassured me straight away that they deal with this all the time and that my car would be fine. PLEASE If you ever put the wrong fuel in your car, don’t panic and don’t listen to everyone saying the worst — go straight to these guys. They really know what they’re doing!
We are very happy with the service provided by Melbourne Roadside Rescue. Nic attended, he was confident he would be able to get our vehicle back on the road, which he did. We have had no problem with the car since. We appreciate your help very much.
Outstanding service from initial phone call with Tracey right through to the technician who attended and the follow up call the next day to ensure everything was still working ok. After a stressful mistake of putting the wrong fuel in my tank, the team were incredibly friendly, professional and reassuring. The technician who attended was knowledgeable, and took the time to explain what was being done, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. They handled everything calmly and efficiently which I'm incredibly grateful for and would highly recommend them. Thankyou.
