If the AdBlue warning light is on in the instrument cluster of your BMW X5, it means that the fluid level in the emissions system has reached the minimum and needs to be refilled. This is a very simple operation; let's see how to proceed in this tutorial.

First, purchase 4 bottles of AdBlue specific to your model. Then, open the hood, locate the first cap behind the right headlight, unscrew it, and add the necessary amount of fluid.

The second cap is located on the opposite side of the compartment, below the air duct, which will need to be removed.
