FAQs

What is AdBlue?

AdBlue is a high-purity 32.5% urea solution used to reduce NOx emissions in diesel vehicles equipped with SCR systems.

Where do I add AdBlue to my vehicle?

The AdBlue tank is usually located near the fuel tank, but it's separate. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for the exact location.

How often should I refill AdBlue?

The frequency of AdBlue refills depends on your driving habits and vehicle model. A typical range is between 3,000 and 12,000 miles per tank. Your vehicle's display will notify you when it needs refilling.

Can I use any other fluid instead of AdBlue?

No, using any other fluid will damage the SCR system. Only use AdBlue that meets the ISO 22241 standard.

What happens if I run out of AdBlue?

Your vehicle's performance may be reduced (limp mode), and it may not restart after the engine is turned off, depending on the vehicle's design. This is to ensure the vehicle meets emission standards.

Can AdBlue freeze?

Yes, AdBlue can freeze at temperatures below -11°C (12°F). It will return to a liquid state when the temperature rises.

Is AdBlue dangerous?

AdBlue is not classified as a dangerous substance, but it can be corrosive to some materials. Avoid spills and follow handling instructions.

Troubleshooting

AdBlue warning light is on.

Refill the AdBlue tank as soon as possible. The warning light indicates a low AdBlue level.

Vehicle is in limp mode.

This may indicate a problem with the SCR system. Consult a qualified mechanic for diagnostics and repair.

AdBlue crystallizes.

Park the vehicle in a warmer environment to allow the AdBlue to return to its liquid state. Avoid prolonged exposure to freezing temperatures.
