Put Diesel in a Petrol Audi TT RS Roadster?
If you've gone and put the wrong fuel in your Audi you probably want to know what you should do about it. The answer to this question depends on the quantity of Diesel you put in your Petrol car.
The first thing we need to look at is the Audi's fuel tank capacity. So, what is the fuel capacity of a 2.5-litre Petrol TT RS Roadster? The answer is: the fuel tank capacity of most Audi TT RS Roadsters is about 60 litres (according to our database).
What to do about putting Diesel in a Petrol Audi will vary dependent on the amount of Diesel used. So, there are three possible scenarios:
(Please Note: These figures are approximates. Running an engine on any amount of incorrect fuel can cause damage, regardless of contamination percentage. Information given here is advice based solely on our customer reports and case histories. Full details should be procured from your vehicle manufacturer.)- FIVE PERCENT: If you put less than 3 litres of Diesel in a Petrol Audi TT RS Roadster then in most cases, if the car's tank is completely filled with the correct fuel before it is started, it will probably be fine.
- FIVE TO TEN PERCENT: If you've put between 3 and 6 litres then you should probably give us a call. This is the grey area where sometimes you can get away with just topping it up, and sometimes you can't. Call us and, with a bit more information, we'll be able to give you the best advice on what to do next.
- If you've put more than 6 litres of the wrong fuel in your Audi TT RS Roadster then you should definitely get it drained. This equates to more than 10% contamination and exceeds any "safe" contamination level.

It truly was what is called the night shift. It was close to sunrise and nobody was about. It had become rather uneventful up to now, and Ryan and I were sitting around looking at a few old articles. That was an unusual quiet moment. Actually it was in fact so tranquil that when the phone inevitably rang it made me start! The motorist on the opposite end explained: "I only just finished my night shift and incredibly filled petrol in a Audi by mistake". I got him to inform us where exactly he was and we set off, reaching him only half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the motor. He thanked us profusely for coming so fast. While we were coming back home we spotted two girls at the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a puncture. So we got out to help them change it, much to their delight.
