Some modern diesels can be really expensive to get by a problem like this. You will get the hassle at some point unless you fuel at basic high volume truck places in my opinion.
Newer volkswagon diesels are just one car that you should be really careful about this in my opinion. I have heard the costs can be very high and not covered even by the warranty. This just may be hearsay though

ive encountered this with common rail cummins. Guy picked up some bad fuel from a station, truck would runish if you used starting fluid to fire it, and injectors were all scored, and it needed a new high pressure pump for the common rail. Rail was ok though
That unit is over 2k alone, and injectors new are 700 plus alone. We found used stuff out of a wrecked truck, but even then it was 1800 dollars in parts not including the labor of putting it all in.
