VW AUDI 3.0 TDI - How to add Adblue / DEF / Diesel Exhaust Fluid.

How to add adblue / DEF to your VW / Audi 3.0 TDI.
The “Add DEF” light came on. The car informed us we had 1000 miles remaining. So I grabbed the box out of the garage and topped it off real quick.
Hope this helps someone out.
We were in a hurry, so the video quality kinda sucks, but, it shows you everything you need to do to get back on the road.
I was going to run through the VCDS stuff, but I forgot how to do it. I spent more time flipping through menus trying to find the appropriate buttons to push. Didn’t end up doing any adaptations via VCDS, and the car was good to go, so I didn’t include it.
Bottom line is this.
Toss in your adblue, and drive away. No harm no foul.

when trying to add to my Q5 it just backs up?
Is there a special tool or door to open seems like I always needed to use the audi / vw bottle.

That’s odd! Is it indicating to you that you need to top it off?

[@robdawg3957]

[@themanleygarage]

Adaptation procedure not required.
