Wife's grandland flashed a warning today saying 'additive consumption fault'. There also a warning light on the dash that looks like a mix of DPF symbol and some droplets. Obviously some king of fault with the pig piss. It's only done seven thousand miles. Grrrr.....

[dave the builder]

Any warranty from the seller ?
does it have any pig p155 in ?

[dave the builder]

There's a re-call on some pig p155 dirty diesels
Opel recall code: 20-N-126
Affected models: Grandland X with DV5R [D15DTH / EFC LQP] engine

[STEMO]

It's still under three years old, Dave, so under manufactures warranty.

obviously NONE of my rusty sh!t-heaps fleet have warranty

Adblue faults on all makes in the cold weather, Andy, it's a crap system thought up by fickin idiots.

Why is Adblue a thing for derv cars. They seemed to run OK before this pig piss addition?

Assuming its not its way of saying it needs more pigs piss....

What is the quality of the pigs piss you have been using?  Has it been stored properly (out of sunlight, and at room temperature)?  This alone is why you shouldn't buy it from the petrol station where its left out in the sun, and then left to freeze.  You can get cheap gadgets to measure its quality.

Beyond that, the injectors seem to clog up and need cleaning up, as they get stuff with the white cystalised stuff around the injector into the SEC.


All this shite to appease the misinformed, stupid, waste of carbon do-gooders.

Needed to meet EU6 emmissions, so you don't have to pay Khan the Khunt* money to pull down statues of white people.

The car is over 2 years old and had only done 3000 miles when we bought it. So I guess the pig piss has been sitting in the tank for quite a while

[TheBoy]

Have you put pigs piss in it?

As a guide, you need 1l of pigs piss for every 250 - 600 miles (depending on usage etc, ours seems to be around 450miles), so 10l will last around 2.5k - 6k miles
