    Ad blue tank

    The D5 has an ad blue tank to keep topped up for emission. If you run out the car is stopped from starting.
    Anyone know how much it cost?

    Peter,

    On the LR website there's a top up deal @£29.99.

    I get free top-ups with my LR service Pack on my RRS2 but it's supposed to last "between services" which is 16,000 mls or 12 months ( on my Sport).

    Folks on the Evoque and DiscoSport forums say that it doesn't last even half the distance between services but even without a service pack an LR dealer will top it up for free in the 1st 3 years ' warranty period............. And the addition of the AdBlue tank reduced their fuel capacity by 10 litres over the old car even though the AdBlue tank isn't part of the fuel tank. Suspicion is that the fuel tank was made smaller to counter act the additional weight of the AdBlue which could increase the CO2 emissions and therefore taxation.... Means a reduced driving range though.

    Tim,

    My 16MY RRS2 is just coming up to 7000 miles and the service menu says I have 8388 miles left of ad-blue so as I keep to 12,000 a year -I reckon I'm OK.

    My D4 got its first service with 11,000mls of AdBlue left, they topped it up now sitting at 17,500mls. Wouldn't even know it's there.

    The D4 lost rear air con due to the AdBlue it's all to do with weights etc.

    Your local Halfords sell for next to nothing.
