Tips for the correct use of AdBlue

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, the YouTuber gives good advice for managing diesel vehicles with AdBlue systems: the first is to use, when possible, urea from gas station pumps, because the urea we buy from auto parts stores or supermarkets may have been exposed to sunlight, which is a big enemy of this liquid. Additionally, the liquid has a two-year expiration date, so if we have a can in the trunk for who knows how long. Second advice: normally, one liter of urea is needed for every 1,000 kilometers, so plan your refills based on the distance you travel. Don't use too little, but don't use too much either; it would lose effectiveness. The third suggestion is to use additives, especially if we don't use the vehicle much, and if we mix old urea with new urea. Additives will clean the injectors and prevent the formation of crystals. If we drive 30/40,000 km a year, then we won't have any problems: we will always have fresh stuff in the tank.
