Synergy Autocentres in Lincoln, provides all aspects of care and maintenance for AdBlue systems, from top-ups to software updates and sensor repairs.

What is AdBlue?

AdBlue is a fluid made from a mixture of urea and deionised water which is used in diesel vehicles to reduce harmful nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions. When injected into the exhaust stream of diesel engines, AdBlue breaks down NOx into nitrogen and water vapour, significantly reducing emissions. It’s normally added to your vehicle just next to where you fill up with diesel (the AdBlue cap will be blue to differentiate from the black diesel cap).

How can I avoid AdBlue issues?

Regularly check and refill AdBlue before it runs out – a light should come on in the dashboard to alert you that the AdBlue is running low.
Make sure you store your AdBlue correctly – try to keep it out of extreme temperatures and direct sunlight and always with the cap on tightly to avoid dirt or dust getting in and contaminating the fluid.
Schedule regular maintenance of your vehicle to help avoid AdBlue sensor and injector problems and also to help avoid crystallisation of the fluid taking place.

How can Synergy Autocentres help with AdBlue problems?

Your vehicle has sensors which monitor AdBlue levels and NOx emissions. If the sensors malfunction, they can cause error codes or system failures, preventing the vehicle from running properly. This is one of the reasons that at Synergy Autocentres, we highly recommend having your car regularly serviced so that we can catch any potential issues early. We use diagnostic scans to determine the cause of the issue and then employ solutions such as software updates or sensor recalibrations to resolve the problem.
