Hi,
My June 2019 Peugeot Hdi 130 has done just 3500 miles and the engine management display is saying “Adblu Low” engine restart impossible in 1500 miles
Does this Adblu usage seem correct? The salesman at the dealers said it would last until the first service at least, however 5000 miles is not even close to the cars first service (3500+1500 miles )
cheers

My experience was Adblue needed topping up every 12,500 in the 308. Sounds like a fault in the warning light or only part filled when you picked up.
Normal, the newer one’s have the triple injection system so use triple the amount of Adblue and they only have a small tank compared to some of the other manufacturers, it is a bit of a payoff but having to put more Adblue in in order to get the emissions down to near nothing is worth it and you can have it refilled for free at your chosen dealer or just do it yourself if able as it’s not that dear TBH.
I get mine done once it drops below the 1,000 miles remaining mark and I’ve had it done 7 times now on this car.
I had mine topped up on our tiguan at around 14,000 miles and they washed and vacuumed the car too while i waited.
They send the bill off to motability.Remember it also depends how you drive and if the journeys are short stop start or long cruise ones. I topped my Tiguan up at 5600 miles and most of my journeys are short trips on A and B roads.
