Re: AdBlue
Maybe some help in those threads (there's plenty more if you put Adblue in search box).

Thanks
Much cheaper. It took around 10 litres i think.following your advice, i checked. The label says it's well in its use by. I will give the rest to a pal with a big removal truck that uses it.Brian6 wrote:Buying 20 litres is probably cheaper, but adblue has a shelf life so beware!!
Thanks for the reply.

Looks lime no way to reset and a trip back to the dealer. We love this Van but lots of niggles we shouldn't have with a brand new £55k vehicle!

Re: AdBlue
Try turning on the ignition for a minute or two without starting, turn off and then start the engine.

Re: AdBlue
Best to fill up at a truck filling station and use a pump to fill up then you have no storage problem
Putting a small volume will not all-ways put the warning light out it’s best to fill right up then the warning will reset
Just a few tips to help people

Re: AdBlue
I found there is a 1500 mile warning, then if you carry on then after the 930 mile remaining mark, there is a mile by mile countdown. If yours is especially low then you may need more to reset it.
A full tank is 15 L on my 2017 Boxer.
I get over 500 miles per litre and I have a lead foot.
My problem was getting the adblue from the bottle into the tank because of the valve in the neck of the filler but it sounds like you have got past that issue.

Re: AdBlue
If you don’t fill above and only part fill level it well not resetVictor Johnstone wrote:Thanks autosleepy, all noted! Finally the b!inking thing just re-set!
When you have put the warring light on it sometimes needs a run then turn off engine then start again to reset the system .ref two drives and sounds like the reason you are now sorted

Re: AdBlue
Adblue when it dries is like rock and can make level switches stick and then take time to Free up . Some vehicles it blocks the pump and has to be cleaned out as we had to with the pumps at the start of adblue on trucks but has now had mod up dates to help with pumps blocking . It’s best not to let the tank run low and start to dry out inside giving problems

That seems very different to the [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] for 10,000 km/6,200 miles:
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
The tank on mine is 14 litres according to the manual, and the calculator suggests 177-248 miles per litre, which is 5 litres every 885-1240 miles. I hope it's less, then I don't have to worry about finding some fairly soon.
