In 2005 the legislation on diesel vehicles in Ireland and the rest of Europe demanded a drastic reduction in NOx emissions.

As a result of this, most new vehicles come with SCR technology (Selective Catalytic Reduction).

If you have purchased a new diesel vehicle that is manufactured to meet Euro IV, V or VI standards it may require AdBlue®. Cars will alarm when the level drops and will stop or not re-start when the tank is empty.

AdBlue® on Tap:

The Glen Fuels Kilmacanogue depot has AdBlue® on tap at our drive-in pump. The pump is open to everyone during business hours Monday - Friday 08.30 - 1700 and Saturday 08.00 - 13.00. If you have a Glen Fuels account, you simply sign at the counter. If you have a Glen Fuels Fuel Card, present your card at the counter to be swiped. We also accept cash and all major cards.

You can also buy AdBlue® from our online store and avail of next day delivery to anywhere in Ireland.

The AdBlue® tank is generally located:

• Beside the fuel filling point. It will be a smaller filling cap.
• In the car boot/ trunk. Cap will have DEF identifier and should be the only fill point in this location.
• Under the car bonnet. Cap will have DEF identifier. Be careful not to fill into screenwash or other fill point

Cleaner Emmissions:

AdBlue® is essential for the cleansing and reduction of harmful emissions and is injected into the exhaust gases before they enter the atmosphere. It is stored safely within a separate tank on the vehicle, and is specifically measured and applied by spraying into the exhaust manifold, reacting with the gasses within it, creating the cleansing and catalytic effect. AdBlue® consumption is typically around 3% – 5%  of the diesel consumption for a typical vehicle, dependent on weight and other  relative factors.
