Does Tesco still do AB? Remember seeing containers of the stuff outside one of their petrol stations. I need to get some as well.

See this a lot, adblue is not supposed to be stored in direct sunlight and kept below 25 degrees so the have it stored on the forecourt, in direct sunlight.

We all know the 5 is not liked, but calling it a shelf is a bit strong

to be honest i've never bought those drums / containers from the forecourts / Halfords. It's alway been cheaper & alot cleaner to fill up at the pump where there are garages that have domestic pumps, not the commercial one for trucks as they don't fit. Winning post garage on Haldon at Exeter is the one I use the most. There is another at the Tesco garage on Carkeel roundabout, Saltash Cornwall. It's gone up a bit in recent years, but still less than a quid a litre last time i filled there I think it was 74p a litre or something. About 15 quid to fill the Audi A4 from almost empty with the larger tank.
The Adblue app by Air1 is really useful.

Checked the Adblue in Ice Maiden the other day, 18,000 mile left before another fill. At a couple of thousand miles a mile it's going to be a while before I visit again or it'll be interesting to see what happens if the Adblue goes off?!
