Only if the SCR system needs component work that cannot be done where the vehicle is.

No. It is a water-based solution and diesel is a hydrocarbon. It separates and sits at the bottom of the tank. Time makes it worse rather than better, because urea in contact with tank and line metals starts to corrode them. ## What customers say in Penicuik 4.8 out of 5 from 2,190 Trustpilot reviews.
