Which mix-up was it?
Petrol in a diesel is the most common and the most harmful mix-up: petrol strips the lubrication from the high-pressure pump. Diesel in a petrol car makes the engine misfire and smoke. AdBlue in the diesel tank sinks to the bottom and crystallises. In every case: do not start the engine.

If it has just happened: three steps
Keep the engine off
Do not start the engine or switch on the ignition – not even to move away from the pump.
Keep the driver door shut if you can
On some cars the fuel pump starts when the driver door opens. Get in from the passenger side if you need to.
Stay safe and call
Hazard lights on. At a station tell the staff; on the road wear a hi-vis vest and wait behind the barrier. Then call +49 761 59415165.
