I read that this Adblue additive has become a valuable tool in the fight against air pollution from Trucks. What a shock when I did a bit of research. It is 2/3rds water & 1/3rd urea, that's Urine in my book. Yet it actually more than pays for itself in increased MPG. I wonder how long before the Car will be using it. We're saving the Planet with Water & Wee. . . .Who'd have thought it, darned clever.

I have a Mercedes ML350AMG which runs on Diesel and AdBlu. The two fillers are next to each other under the usual fuel filler cap. I have done nearly 8,000 miles since I had it, but still not had the low AdBlu warning come up. Have been warned not to ignore it when it does because after a suitable delay the car will go into limp mode for a while & then stop altogether. These new very clean diesels will just not run without the AdBlu.

I watched a Channel 4 Dispatches programme recently, which highlighted that many lorries have a device fitted which over-rides the ad-blue requirement by fooling the vehicles emissions technology, and results in pollution way in excess of what it should be. All a bit of a farce at the moment if this information is correct.
