  • Carlube AdBlue 10 Litre: amzn.to/32eQSPj
    It's time for Roger to top up his AdBlue on the Vivaro, but where should he be buying his stock from?
    What is AdBlue and how does it work? find out at Carbuyer
    www.carbuyer.co.uk/tips-and-a...
    AdBlue is becoming increasingly common on diesel cars and is a fluid made up of a mix of urea and deionized water which is squirted into the exhaust system, helping to reduce nitrous oxide emissions produced by diesel engines. With car manufacturers having to adhere to ever more stringent emissions targets, AdBlue is vital to make sure diesel cars pass tests and produce less harmful pollution.

      I changed car from diesel to petrol and still had five litres of AdBlue with nowhere to use it. Knowing it was urea in water, basically piss-and same as the nitrogen green up in grass treatments I treated the lawn to a dressing. Burned brown in an hour. Guess it should have been diluted. Reseeded and the new grass was up in two weeks and has needed a cut every fortnight since. It’s very green.

Fortunately a petrol station nearby now has a pump on the forecourt charging £1.29 per litre which is much better value and no plastic waste.
