Selective catalytic
reduction
General information
Applies to vehicles: with selective catalytic reduction
In vehicles with selective catalytic reduction, a
urea solution (AdBlue) is injected into the ex-
haust system before a nitrogen oxide catalytic
converter to reduce nitrogen emissions.
The Ad Blue is carried in a separate tank in the ve-
hicle. The AdBlue usage accounts for approxi-
mately 0.5% to 2.5% of the diesel fuel that is
used.
When a message about refilling the AdBlue ap-
pears in the instrument cluster display, you must
refill the Ad Blue yourself or have it refilled by an
authorized Audi dealer or authorized Audi Service
Facility
r:!.>page 213 .
{!) Tips
- The instrument cluster display indicates the
distance remaining that can be driven
¢ page 213 . If the AdBlue tank is com-
pletely empty, the engine will not start
again after the ignition is switched off.
- Ad Blue is required by law to operate th is ve-
hicle.
