I had very similar recurrent issues with the AdBlue system (T6, 2017) until my last trip to the NW highlands on January. I had to drive home (8.5hrs) without switching the engine off as it was telling me “no start”.
Since had it “deleted” and all seems well, so far!

Had the dreaded 650 miles left Adblue warning come up yesterday. When I last used the van six day’s ago I had 3500 miles left to run. Topped up with 5Lts and added wins aditive to prevent crystalIization. Carried out the reset procedure with no change on the level. After driving under a mile it...
Message appeared on the MFD stating AdBlue Range 6000 miles. Don't recall this being there before, at least not all the time. Should it be?
Also, assumed it needed topping up so added more and have since read this can cause problems. Should I be concerned?
Can I chip in here?
I had the Adblue warning and topped it up.
About 1000 miles later, another Adblue alert.
That’s odd thinks I.
Then it goes out.
Next long trip it come on after about 80 miles.
Very odd.
I am guessing at a level/meter issue?

Removing your AdBlue system is illegal for road-going vehicles in the UK and many other countries. While technically possible through software (ECU remapping) or hardware removal, doing so violates emissions regulations, causes MOT failures, and voids insurance.

I give the van a short drive to see if by magic the dreaded adblue fault had put its self right. No such luck and it drop down to 550 miles left to go. I have driven about 50 miles from when I had a 600 miles left to run. So some how it can still manage to know how I have used 50 miles worth of...
What can you all tell me about the following? What’s it going to cost me? :confused:
Got the yellow engine light on my T6.1 Caravelle.
Plugged in my OBD11 and this came up:
As far as I'm aware (which admittedly isn't an awful long way!), if the adblue system is mapped out, the van will NOT consume any adblue - it simply forgets that it even exists. I'm told that a delete is supposed to be reversible but IMHO that might be problematic as whatever adblue is left in...
Along with what seems like quite a few others on here my van has had it's share of Adblue issues over the last few years (which have NOT yet been sorted by VW so it's ongoing), I was wondering whether a simple survey of members in general might be worthwhile. My thought was that it could...
...The MFD range showed 4000 miles when I got it then it went down to 3500 after about 500 miles now it's saying 5000 miles - I haven't added any Adblue so I can only think it might be a faulty sensor, although I suspect it would probably read 0 miles or the maximum (whatever that is)...?
