AdBlue Solutions – Banchory

Also known as diesel exhaust fluid, AdBlue is a mixture which comprises de-ionised water and high-grade urea.

To reduce a diesel vehicle’s nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions AdBlue is automatically sprayed into its exhaust system.

It is a legal requirement to reduce emissions, and regulations are becoming ever more strict, so it is very important that this aspect is observed on your vehicle. Caldwell & Dempster in Banchory will check levels, and top up AdBlue fluid whenever appropriate during a service, but it is advisable to periodically check the level yourself, for example when doing your usual check of other levels, such as engine oil, or screen-wash.

If there appears to be a deficiency in your vehicle’s AdBlue system it could be caused by a number of factors:

• Contamination of the AdBlue fluid
• Faulty AdBlue level sensor
• Failure of the AdBlue injector
• Failure of the AdBlue pump
• Failure of the AdBlue pre-heater or heater
• Failure of the NOx sensor(s)
• Issues with the SCR catalyst
• Issues with the ECU
• Leaking AdBlue tank
• Problems with electrical circuits

Caldwell & Dempster, is experienced in dealing with emission-related solutions on most vehicles and can maintain, diagnose problems, or fit replacement parts whenever necessary. Or, alternatively, we can simply top up your AdBlue fluid level.
