ADBlue empty after 7 months
Dear All,
So I have an E220D station wagon which has done 10,000 miles and in the last days I have received the message that I need to refill the adblue.
It's strange, because with my lat C class which also used adblue I never had to refill in the 2.5 years of ownership.
Any similar experiences? Is this normal?
Cheers,
CP

EQE 500 4MATIC replacing EQC 4matic AMG line P
Hi the adblue has always been topped up as part of the service in my C estate (250d 4 matic). We have a service plan but of course adblue is a consummable so is charged hence I know it is done....I am in France so if you lease in the UK the lease service terms may be different. In some countries the adblue tanks are quite small and regular topping up is the norm but generally in europe I think we have larger tanks with the view that they will last in general between services.
The new om654 engine has a different exhaust gas cleaning system with everything bolted on much closer to the engine than in the old om651 set up and they claim it catches 99% of particulates and is also much better on nox...maybe too late looking at the hysteria developing over diesel engines.
Can I ask how do you fine the new e v your old c. There seems to be a lot of W205 owners who have upgraded to the W213 here and indeed I am one having placed an order this week for a e 220d 4matic estate....I am a little concerned re the loss of torque from my 250d (down to 400 from 500) but on test drives it seemed ok but real life tends to really demo the changes. However we are facing a reduction in the national speed limit from 90k to 80k wef 1st June (it will be quicker to walk soon!) And I am taking the view outright performance is really no longer worth paying for as I simply never have the opportunity to use it!

I forgot to say my annual mileage is modest car was registered mid may 2015 and is now on 24k miles (37k km) and it has had 2 annual services when adblue was added each time at about 50€ cannot recall the quantity charged for.

200cdi: 18.469 KM (11.476 miles) on the clock and I've got 3800km adblue left.
I don't know at what level it will give the warning message, but my figures seem pretty close to yours cornishPasty..?
