Daft question. Do I presume if my 2016 t6 doesn’t have obvious adblue cap near diesel fill point, I don’t need to worry about this?
Vehicle is a highline with ‘blue motion’ technology. But I understand that doesn’t necessarily mean much specifically from googling?!
There is an early T6 euro 5 pre ad-blue but isn’t ulez compliant same as early T5
Tsi is obvs petrol so best of both worlds
They didn’t run for long so are pretty rare now but they are out there
I‘m closing in on needing to add some Ad-blue - had the van nine months and it’s down to 1600 miles of range.
Didn't need it before as my last van was Euro5 so I’m an ad-blue newbie.
Is there a (perceived) difference in quality buying it from Bum Bargains like there is with buying supermarket...
got a call last month from my AD and after a bit of a wait picked this up it’s the Deepsea Deep blue I love blue and big watches so to me it’s the perfect watch .
Don’t know if it’s the same for a t6.1 but my t6 will throw up errors if the adblue is over filled. Adblue is corrosive so the level sensor is located outside the tank and cannot “ see” adblue in the filler neck of the tank. When you drive the system thinks the adblue level is not going down so...
Except removing any/all of those things is illegal.
Egr and adblue are just software solutions.
Dpf involves physical work in altering the dpf internals. If it gets discovered and fails it’s mot you’ll have to shell out a couple of grand for a new one. I’d leave the dpf alone.
@Dellmassive thanks will head off down the Blue rabbit hole to research. Any particular DC-DC recommendations? Had previously not looked at Victron due to cost. My MPPT is currently a BlueSolar MPPT 75/15 so no Bluetooth from that although I could get the £35 smart dongle, and I understand max...
When you say "the max the tank will take" do you mean the maximum that the MFD is asking for, or you brim fill the Ad-Blue tank until it won't take anymore?
My woes continue after a complete flush of the coolant system. The mechanic took it for a long drive and is convinced that adblue is mixing with the coolant and creating a sludge.
My van is a 2018 2.0tdi 102bhp with only 79k on the clock. There is nothing on the forum that suggests this is...
Unfortunately diesels have become over completed to try and reduce the emissions. I personally would not buy another EU6 car with ad-blue. My T6 and my Audi A3 are both 150tdi. But the Audi is the very last to be made before they had ad-blue and has been much more reliable than my T6 with it...
Another question if I may, on one of the earlier pages it was queried about whether a poster had had the ignition on, dash lights on but engine off, when refilling the Ad-blue.
Does this make any difference? Does it enable the system to recognise the tank has been topped up or refilled...
I’ve had the
Euro 5 140 six speed manual
Euro 6 150 six speed manual
And now the later 204 dsg sportline
There all great engines the 140 is meant to be most reliable as no ad-blue nonsense
My 150 was great no problems and now I love the 204 dsg it does have a lot of grunt and I don’t mooch...
When I followed the instructions on the MFD I had an issue with it not registering what I put in. So after reading earlier posts on the forum I tried filling the tank completely - and this has worked since.
...be picking up my, new to me, T6 camper van Monday week. It is a 2019 T6, T30, Highline with the 150 engine and manual gearbox. It also has AdBlue and this will be my first experience of running a vehicle with this system.
The question I would like to ask is, is there any way of finding out...
True. Start looking around for adblue pumps at petrol stations. We are definitely being ripped off. I fill up at one near the M1 at Barnsley if I’m passing. It’s round the side where the hgv diesel is. The shell garage near me is £1.80 - 10 miles apart.
Just shows they are happy to rip off the...
