  1. i bought one in halfords for about £7 i think, brill tool just looks like a really big socket for your socket set
  2. changed the ad-blue for the dpf fluid today. Easyist job in the world to do. Undo 3 bolts on the cover over the void where the spare wheel sits from the under side of the car remove the cover and you can see the tank. This is held in place with 3 more bolts undo these and the tank drops down open the fillier cap poor in the dpf fluid (liquid gold the bloody price of it) do up the filler cap and refit the tank easy peezey. I'm shocked how easy the job was after what i read on here. The light has gone out on the dash as well now !
  3. ok i'll change it for the other dearer stuff mine has the tank under the spare wheel i was told by a skoda master tech guy as mine has no access inside the car undo the 3 10mm bolts under the car and the tank should drop down then undo the filler cap and pour the stuff in !
  4. but lots of people from vw told me its fine thats what they use now. this stuff is not blue either i looks like water completely differnet from the ad blue we put in the lorrys at work
  5. went to volkswagen to pick up the fluid and the guy made some more inquries after i had left yesterday and said i could use vw ad-blue instead of the dpf fluid which worked out at £12.34 for 4 litres insted of £45 a litre. I asked him if this would wreck my car and he said "no its fine you can use the ad-blue" so thats what i did havent put it in the car yet as its raining but gonna do it tomorrow i know people on here have said dont use ad blue but this is from VW itself
