    T6 Without Adblue?

    Hi All,

    I've just bought a T6 Multivan, built July 2016.

    All the other T6s I've seen have the Bluemotion badge on the back but mine doesn't and where the Adblue is supposed to go in it's blanked off with rubber.

    Is this nothing to be alarmed by and some of the early ones don't use Adblue?

    If it makes any difference this vehicle was a VW Australia demonstrator.

    Cheers,


    Tony

    Bluemotion is a fuel efficiency concept, not directly related to AdBlue.

    My guess is they're now fitting the same basic filler neck assembly to all of them.

    Wouldn't stress. I have the same van (might be built earlier in '16 though) and I have the bluemotion sticker. I don't think the Aust versions use Adblue. Salesman told me bluemotion was more of a concept (as mentioned above).... ie special tint on glass, auto off engine, some other crap that I can't recall. And he knew stuff all to be honest.

    I'm nearly up for a 45,000km service, and despite a faulty aircon compressor from factory (replaced under warranty) it's been hassle free.

    Here you go good ol Mr Google AdBlue is produced from a high purity urea solution. Urea is produced by the synthesis of ammonia and CO2 (carbon dioxide).
    And this one will explain Bluemotion which is a VW catchphrase What is VW BlueMotion? Is it worth it? | carwow

    If you have a tdi450 it would run adblue as its a Euro6 compliant engine.
