Fed Up with AdBlue Faults? A Specialist's Guide to AdBlue Solutions in Kent.

When the SCR system detects a critical fault, the ECU can initiate a countdown. If the countdown reaches zero, the vehicle may refuse to restart once the ignition is turned off. These systems therefore need to be maintained properly and diagnosed by specialists who understand the calibration between hardware and software.

In the UK, it is illegal to remove or disable emissions control equipment on a vehicle used on public roads. A permanent AdBlue warning light, or evidence that hardware has been removed, can result in an MOT failure. We will not present that work as a solution for a road vehicle.

DPF, EGR and AdBlue software changes are supplied only for genuine motorsport, track, competition or off-road vehicles that are not used on public roads. Before any such work begins, we ask you to complete and sign our Customer Declaration, which names the vehicle and its intended off-road or motorsport use. We do not offer this work as a repair or fault fix for a road vehicle.

A DPF that was fitted as original equipment but is physically missing or obviously modified is a major defect and will fail an MOT. An illuminated engine or emissions warning light, or emissions above the permitted limits, can also cause a failure. But a software change on its own is not automatically an MOT failure in every case — the result depends on the vehicle and the applicable test requirements.

It is an emissions fluid injected into the exhaust treatment system to reduce nitrogen oxides. It is not a fuel additive and it does not affect engine power.

Removing or defeating emissions equipment on a road vehicle is not something we do. Where a genuine component fault exists, the right answer is diagnosis and repair.

Repeated warnings usually point to a failing pump, sensor or injector rather than low fluid. Diagnostics identify the real cause before anything else.
