Adblue Standards
Evening all,
I need to fill my motor with some Adblue. I brought a few litres that meet the 22241 standard but in iDrive, it says I need 22241-1. Net says something about the -1 refers to the storage requirements. Before I blow up my engine! Anyone shed some light on this? |

I have noticed this too and plan to get a couple of 10lt Redex Adblue containers to keep in the garage which are 22241-1 ISO compliant.

I use the stuff from Halfords. 43,000 miles later and no problems. It says 22241 certified. It's manufactured by Yara
From their website: Yara's AdBlue product is certified according to ISO 22241 (ISO 22241-1, ISO 22241-2, ISO 22241-3). The revisions are to the testing methods. Official ISO information So you should be fine with what you've bought. |

It could hardly "blow your engine up" given that minute quantities are sprayed into the exhaust just down from the cat. I throw any old shite in mine that the haulage yard down the road kindly donates for looking after their dog. Never had an issue.

I use the Redex stuff in my X3, although I do keep getting Adblue system failure warnings come up! They are just due to a software update required though apparently.

Software wiped off all my data from car: trip distance, consumption, lighting set up and done reset on engine and gearbox (first 200 miles was strange when driving, till it learned again). |
