Mercedes Sprinter issues! 20:18 - May 24 with 747 views

I'm due to take our Sprinter campervan to Cornwall tomorrow but I've just had an Adblue fault ping up with a emergency mode countdown. Does anyone on here know of someone who can do a remap in the Ipswich area? I wouldn't normally consider this but I'm imagining there's no way I'll be able to get the fault diagnosed and repaired in time to still go away as it's bank holiday weekend

Surely you just need to lob some more in it? It’s about a tenner from Halfords

If it’s an actual fault, the last thing you want to do is map out the error. The point behind adblue is that’s an engine additive to make sure the engine stays within emissions and doesn’t run hot. (Ironically by making the burn process run hotter)

Because if it pops back on on the m4/m5 and fries your engine - or puts you in a limp mode - you’re screwed. Do you really want to start your holiday that way with your family on the side of a motorway?

Get it fixed properly. Sh*t happens and it’s better to sort it properly

If the above advice of adding more adblue doesnt work check your EGR valve. Adblue is the main cause for a faulty EGR. Sludge builds up inside the valve and can cause the adblue warning issues. If it is the valve it will look like it has leaked and the joints will look like they are crystallised.
