How to Remove the AdBlue Warning Light in the BMW X5?

Model: BMW X5 F15 - Years 2013-2018
Part: AdBlue warning light

If the AdBlue warning light is on in the instrument cluster of your BMW X5, it means that the emissions fluid is at a too low level and needs to be topped off. You can do this by following the simple procedure shown in this tutorial. First, purchase a 2.6-gallon jug of urea at any auto parts store, then turn off the engine and open the hood. Next, locate the blue cap on the right side of the compartment, unscrew it, and insert the jug's nozzle into the opening. At this point, just add the necessary amount of fluid and drive a few miles afterward.
