AdBlue is an essential part of modern diesel engines, reducing harmful emissions and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations. However, faults with the AdBlue system can lead to warning lights, performance issues, or even prevent the vehicle from starting. Our expert team in St Helens can quickly diagnose and resolve any AdBlue-related issues, ensuring your vehicle is back on the road and running smoothly.
What is AdBlue?
AdBlue is a liquid solution of urea and deionized water, used in Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) systems to reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from diesel engines. The system injects AdBlue into the exhaust, breaking down harmful emissions into nitrogen and water, both of which are harmless to the environment. While the system is crucial for keeping emissions low, it can sometimes malfunction, leading to a range of issues that need professional diagnostics and repair.
Common AdBlue System Problems
There are a wide range of issues that can occur with AdBlue systems. Our AdBlue diagnostics in St Helens will get to the bottom of any AdBlue fault and when we've got to the bottom of it, we can fully repair it.
AdBlue Warning Light On
If the AdBlue warning light illuminates on your dashboard, it means there’s an issue with the system. This could be a simple issue like low AdBlue levels or a more serious fault with the system's sensors or injection mechanism.
AdBlue Fault Code
Modern diesel vehicles will generate a fault code when there is an issue with the AdBlue system. These codes need to be read and diagnosed using specialist diagnostic equipment to determine the exact problem.
Vehicle Won’t Start
Some vehicles are designed not to start if the AdBlue system isn’t working correctly. This is a failsafe measure to prevent excessive NOx emissions.
AdBlue Injector Issues
If the AdBlue injector becomes blocked or fails, it can prevent the system from functioning properly, leading to higher emissions and reduced engine performance.
SCR System Faults
The Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system, which works in conjunction with the AdBlue system, can also develop faults. Problems with the SCR catalyst or sensors can lead to warnings and affect vehicle performance.
Contaminated AdBlue
AdBlue is a delicate system and can be easily compromised by contaminated AdBlue, leading to clogging, injector failure, and system malfunction. Diagnosing the contamination early can prevent costly repairs.
