People's cars 'stop running' after filling up on fuel 'full of water' at Asda filling station

Several people have claimed their cars have "stopped running" after they filled up on diesel that was "full of water" at an Asda fuel station in Cardiff. The supermarket is currently conducting an investigation into the diesel at its Coryton fuel station - just off junction 32 of the M4 - after it received a "small number of enquiries" from customers.

Customers have reported engines cutting out and not restarting. Diesel is currently unavailable at the filling station but will return following "thorough testing", Asda said.

Lee Clark, 52, who is a company director of a cleaning and maintenance company and lives in Cardiff, is a regular customer at the Coryton station and is one of the affected customers. He filled up his Range Rover with about £120 worth of diesel on December 27, before driving from Coryton to Cwmbran. But about 15 miles into the journey he said his engine management light came on and faults started coming up.
