Purpose and Specifications

VAICO V60-0270 AdBlue is a high-quality diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) in a convenient 5-liter canister, designed to reduce harmful nitrogen oxide emissions from your diesel engine's SCR system. This clear, harmless liquid - 32.5% urea in deionized water - converts noxious exhaust gases into harmless nitrogen and water vapor, helping your vehicle meet strict Euro 6 standards and run cleaner.

Key specs include: 5-liter capacity for easy top-ups, canister dimensions of 290mm height, 190mm length, and 140mm width. It's AUS32, DIN 70070, and ISO 22241 certified for reliable performance in everyday driving. Expect it to last 100-500km per liter based on your driving style, road type, and engine efficiency - perfect for long trips without frequent refills.

When to Use / Replace?

Top up AdBlue when your dashboard shows a low-level warning, typically at 2-5 liters remaining, to avoid power limits or starting issues. Use it in diesel vehicles with SCR systems, especially during routine maintenance every 10,000-20,000km or when the tank runs low. Store in a cool place (ideally 5-25°C) with a shelf life of up to 2 years unopened - always check for contamination as the SCR system is sensitive.

Practical benefits: Cleaner exhaust with less NOx (up to 56% reduction vs. older standards), no diesel smell at idle, and legal compliance to keep your vehicle running smoothly without fines.
