Following the instructions in this guide, we will see how to top up the AdBlue fluid and reset the warning light on the Volkswagen Passat. First, we open the fuel door and unscrew the cap of the AdBlue fluid tank; then we proceed to refill the AdBlue, either by topping up or using the appropriate container, as shown in the video.

At this point, we get into the car and start the engine, waiting for the control unit to detect the new level of AdBlue fluid and consequently reset the warning light on the instrument panel display.
