AdBlue Fluid & Software Programming – Maidstone

Red Oak Garage is pleased to offer a specialist service regarding AdBlue, the additive used to reduce exhaust emissions in diesel vehicles.

AdBlue is a fluid composed of a mixture of de-ionised water along with high-grade urea. It is sprayed automatically into the exhaust system to reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) levels. The reduction of toxic emissions has been a legal requirement for many years and is becoming stricter as time goes on.

With this in mind, it makes sense to ensure the AdBlue levels in diesel vehicles are monitored regularly and at Red Oak Garage we do this at every service. The AdBlue fluid level will be checked and topped up if necessary at this point, but it is recommended that motorists also check the level themselves between services, for example when checking other fluids such as engine oil or screen wash.

There are some issues that can cause a deficiency in AdBlue fluid and the more common include the AdBlue sensor, pump, injector, or pre-heater and heater failures, AdBlue fluid contamination, AdBlue tank leakage, NOx sensor failure, SCR catalyst issues or electrical problems, and ECU issues. It is strongly recommended that an experienced garage, such as Red Oak Garage is tasked to diagnose any issues. In addition to topping up fluid, we are also experienced in dealing with all kinds of AdBlue-related problems. We offer advice and provide a range of other AdBlue solutions such as software programming.

If you suspect there may be a problem with your vehicle’s AdBlue system, call Red Oak Garage on 01622 757141, contact us online, or bring your car along to our premises in Buckland Road, Maidstone.

As a well-established and highly regarded independent workshop, Red Oak Garage is proud to be associated with a number of leading motoring industry organisations such as the Good Garage Scheme, the Federation of Small Businesses and the IMI. Whether providing motorists with unbiased advice or ensuring we maintain the highest levels of working practices and qualifications, we are pleased that our own principles are in line with such high standards.
