...the plastic surround of the filler cap. Always thought it would be good for the fuel cap rather than trying to slot the two notches over the edge at the top.
Discovered what the taper hole is for yesterday - the AdBlue cap!!
I’d just been putting it on the ground (carefully to keep it clean!)
Mine is a 2016 T6 without adblue, Vw guy who does the service applauds the euro5 engine over the later one (with adblue) don’t know if anything in that helps, but I don’t do any ULEZ driving currently (although perhaps a problem in future)
There should be a fault code stored about this.
What's the engine code and what model year the van is?
Have you checked piping from AdBlue unit to the injector for leaks?
...with the components of the system, so I check / top mine up when the dash quotes an amount to fill. Its a startline van, so I press the clock adjust button then it cycles through the ad-blue status.
As such I now tend to get the smaller pouches of adblue from Halfords when they are on offer.
My early 6.1 (2020) has about the same as yours G, the later 6.1's have 20 odd thousand range on a full tank of AdBlue, don't overfill/brim it, be guided by the guidance on the display!
I regret buying this pile of crap of a van
Its still at vw waiting for excessively overpriced adblue parts to be fitted without any real idea whether it'll sort the problems
Kind of hoping the dealership burns down or it gets nicked while its there!
Hi all,
Looking to add 230v hookup to my existing setup. This is mainly just for battery charging and maintenance rather than for running 230v appliances.
I've created some wiring diagrams of the current system and how I think it will need to look post install. I'm not the best at...
I think the issue with all the emissions gubbins is that legislation pushed ahead without any regard for the time scales required to design and develop a viable engineering solution, so the manufacturers just cobbled something together to tide then over until ICE was killed off.
BTW, I believe...
...blanked off the EGR valve & gutted the DPF. Assuming the person in question had a fully functional VCDS, what coding would be required to complete the removal of AdBlue, EGR, DPF?
Notwithstanding the side issues of MOT/morality/insurance etc. What are the purely technical details to consider?
resurrecting an old thread
I have exactly the same scenario plus one additional visit to fit a new seal on the turbo which the dealer was convinced would be the fix. first run since and now have same faults again albeit pending ..... grrrrr
anyone know the next stages in VW computer diagnostic...
Van has finally been looked at and apparently it was an ad-blue mixing valve...which didn't come up in the list of things above. Hopefully, it's now cured.
Cheers Lee, I think!:oops: Is it serious or just one of those annoying faults that T6 owners know about yet no one knows why it happens or how to fix it?
cant be done with VCDS.
you need the engine computer remapped, to software delete the AdBlue, EGR, DPF etc. (assuming its for off road use)
not sure how they they do it in practice, fudge the numbers in excel lol - who knows. its Black magic with an unknown outcome? (unless dyno tested, or...
