AdBlue Range T6.1 150

[Tarquers]

Anyone had a thought about AdBlue range on the new engines? Here you go:

That’s very high unless the RDE2 150 now also comes with the larger Adblu tank? Thought that was just the 204.

Will let you know when I have read the manual, but could just be it hasn’t started using yet. Will be interesting to see what happens as I use the van.

I'm pretty sure the adblue tank is bigger on a T6.1

On RDE2 compliant T6.1 the adblue tank tank is bigger, but unchanged on early T6.1s

13 litres according to the on-line brochure.

I found that but wondered if that wasn't the "latest" RDE2 ?

 

[Tarquers]

Manual says it uses between 0.5L to 2.0L per 1,000 km, so at 19,000 km when it has yet to regen, gives a capacity between 9.5 and 38 litres, so no help at all. @Jabberwocky think your data is the old 199 PS engine not the RDE2 engine. Guess I will find out when I fill it up.

Ah OK. I was only going on what VW say. Must be real confusing buy a Cali right now. The copy chart I posted came from VW web site today!

The data chart I posted came from the VW website today so not unreasonably I thought it to be correct. Could the manual or even the vehicle display be wrong too?
What to believe?
Anyway, as you say, you will find out when you have to fill up.

sop just driven to Warsaw and back (750 km, 9 hours) and thought I would check on the effect of the trip on the AdBlue range....

would have thought 27ltr now standard Adblue tank capacity across the range. Think that I read that on a Commercial Van review, but?

Interesting to see how it stabilises over time.

My T6 indicated 6,500 when new and on some fill initial ups, usually 4,500 but after the VW Adblue revision never goes above 3,500.

Mine showed 1500 miles when I picked it up, still on 1492 miles after just over 1000miles.

cant imagine 12,750 miles is correct for me, but will be fun to watch and see where it goes.

Be careful the tank will overflow soon

Having driven 2,000 km over the last 2 weeks, AdBlue now showing 21,500. Seems I am on to something.
