Ford AdBlue
For a Ford AdBlue problem, the first question is direction: AdBlue in the fuel tank is recoverable if the engine has not run, fuel in the AdBlue tank is not a drain-and-go job. Call 01295 380724.
Ford uses the AdBlue name directly across EcoBlue diesels. Whatever the badge on the system, the fluid is AUS 32 to ISO 22241 and the failure modes are the same across manufacturers.

Ford AdBlue problem — what is manufacturer-specific
| Manufacturer | Ford |
|---|---|
| System naming | Ford uses the AdBlue name directly across EcoBlue diesels. |
| Fluid | AUS 32 — 32.5% urea in demineralised water, ISO 22241 |
| Inducement | Regulatory, not a manufacturer setting. Distances vary by model — check the handbook. |
| Call-out | From just £89 call-out fee |
| Helpline | 01295 380724 |
£89 is the call-out. An AdBlue tank drain and flush is quoted on the phone before a technician travels. If the SCR system needs component replacement — dosing injector, pump, tank or catalyst — that is separate, and you will be told before any work starts. If this is a job we cannot fix at the roadside, we will tell you that on the phone rather than after we arrive.
What genuinely varies between manufacturers is the marketing name for the system, the tank capacity and its location on the vehicle, the quoted consumption rate, the countdown distances at each inducement stage, and whether a latched inducement can be reset with generic diagnostic equipment or needs manufacturer tooling. The last of those is the one that decides whether a stranded vehicle moves under its own power.
What does not vary is the chemistry. Dosing happens in the exhaust, ahead of the catalyst, and no fluid you put in the AdBlue tank ever reaches the engine. Manufacturer handbooks give the specific figures for your vehicle, and those are the numbers to use rather than a universal one quoted online.

What customers say

The most common criticism is price. People do not expect a wrong-fluid job to cost what it costs, and that is a fair complaint to publish rather than bury. The answer is the From just £89 call-out fee, a quote given on the phone before a technician travels, and being told when a job cannot be done at the roadside rather than after somebody has arrived and charged for the visit.
