Petrol in 3.0D X5
Discussion
My boss has just filled the X5 with petrol, and driven it, and now it needs a new fuel pump and some other parts.
Just so us lot in the office can have a good laugh at his silliness (last few cars were all derv, so no idea where he got the petrol idea from), I was wondering what BMW charge for rectifying such a mistake

Whoopsie!
An expensive mistake to make with those then. I guess it's those fuel pumps and pipes, and all the labour then? Injectors, tank clean???
Bet BMW love people filling them up with petrol
Can't be too harsh to him though, I've done it before but it was on a car worth £500 and it cost me about £10 to put right

Why doesn't your boss get the tank emptied, filled up with diesel and see if it runs. 99 times out of 100 they are ok. Worst case is he has to get it towed to the dealership to have everything replaced. Its usually just a rip off by the dealers.
He brimmed it, got a mile or so away and it just conked at the road side. RAC came out and it was taken to BMW.
Not a car person really and I guess he was shocked to see the cost. Still, won't do it again now... I hope
Thanks for the replies.
