Carlube AdBlue 10 Litre: amzn.to/32eQSPj
It's time for Roger to top up his AdBlue on the Vivaro, but where should he be buying his stock from?
What is AdBlue and how does it work? find out at Carbuyer
www.carbuyer.c...
AdBlue is becoming increasingly common on diesel cars and is a fluid made up of a mix of urea and deionized water which is squirted into the exhaust system, helping to reduce nitrous oxide emissions produced by diesel engines. With car manufacturers having to adhere to ever more stringent emissions targets, AdBlue is vital to make sure diesel cars pass tests and produce less harmful pollution.

@davidk3729 Год назад

I changed car from diesel to petrol and still had five litres of AdBlue with nowhere to use it. Knowing it was urea in water, basically piss-and same as the nitrogen green up in grass treatments I treated the lawn to a dressing. Burned brown in an hour. Guess it should have been diluted. Reseeded and the new grass was up in two weeks and has needed a cut every fortnight since. It’s very green.

@nathanlucas6465 4 года назад

If you've got a garage that has truck pumps, it's worth looking to see if they've got an Adblue pump. Exactly the same stuff, but even cheaper again. Usually around 79p a litre

@coffeeman2079 Год назад

Tip : stab a hole in the bottom of the container when you are pouring the ad blue. It lets air in and pushes the adblue out faster
