Never confuse the diesel tank with the AdBlue tank.

Model: Fiat 500 500 X - Years 2014-2022
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, we see a truly terrible mistake that can happen when you have a car for just a few days. This driver ran out of diesel; it shouldn't happen, but it did. The latest generation Fiat cars have the fuel filler neck designed with the "easy fuel" method, which has no apparent safety features but is completely inaccessible except at the fuel pump. Naturally, all cars with this type of fuel tank access come with a special funnel that allows for manual refueling. Not being aware of this, the user thought it would be a good idea to pour diesel into the AdBlue filler neck, causing colossal damage, for which it may be necessary to directly replace the additive tank. So let's be careful when refueling our car; if there are two caps, there may be a reason for it: let's think carefully.
