Know More On Ad Blue Diesel Exhaust Fluid | Ford Australia
SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
What is AdBlue®?
Many new diesel vehicles, including Ford Everest, Ford Endura and 2.0L Transit & Transit Customs, now require the use of a Diesel Exhaust Fluid commonly referred to as AdBlue®. This fluid is automatically injected into the vehicle’s exhaust system to help reduce emissions of nitrogen oxide.
AdBlue® is stored in a small tank and, just like diesel fuel, must be kept topped up by the driver. Further information on AdBlue® can be found in the Owner’s Manual.
How often is AdBlue® used?
Your usage of AdBlue® depends on your vehicle use, load being carried and driving style. As a guide, a tank of AdBlue® typically lasts 12,000 to 16,000 km of normal driving for Everest, and 9,000 to 11,000 km for Transit & Transit Custom.
Where can I buy it?
You can refill your AdBlue® tank using stocked containers available for purchase from your Ford Dealer, selected service stations and automotive retailers. Ford Dealers can refill your tank with Ad-Blue® or sell you a container the next time you come in for a service, but this is not included in the standard Ford service price.
See www.ford.com.au/owners/service/calculator for recommended pricing information.
