Audi A4 Avant in St Ives Cornwall after AdBlue delete by Kernowsport

Audi A4 Avant AdBlue Fix in St Ives Cornwall

This job in St Ives was for a local customer who was preparing to sell his Audi A4 Avant when the dreaded AdBlue warnings appeared on the dash. At first, the owner asked us to reset the system in the hope that it would stay clear, but within just 24 hours the warnings returned. Unfortunately, once these AdBlue systems start to go wrong, they tend to continue getting worse. We returned the next day and carried out a full AdBlue delete via the ECU, mapping out the system permanently. While we were there, we also performed a full health check on the Audi to ensure it was in top condition. Happily, this one turned out to be a very clean, well-maintained vehicle — now AdBlue-free and ready to give its next owner many years of reliable service.

VW Crafter camper van driving in Cornwall after AdBlue fix and remap by Kernowsport

VW Crafter Camper AdBlue Fix in Padstow & Hayle

Job number two today was another holiday rescue, this time for a family staying in Padstow with their 2020 VW Crafter camper van. Unfortunately, just as they were preparing to return home to Manchester, the dreaded AdBlue countdown appeared with only 85 miles remaining before no-start mode. That left them unable to risk the long drive home, so they gave us a call. We agreed to squeeze them in last minute on a Saturday afternoon and arranged to meet at McDonald’s in Hayle, where the kids could stay entertained while we got to work. Luckily, we had time to set up before they arrived, and this one turned out to be a quick job, taking less than an hour. While fixing the AdBlue issue, we also applied a stage one performance remap to the Crafter, giving it extra pulling power and smoother performance. By the time we were done, the family were safely back on the road, ready to head home to Manchester without any more AdBlue worries.

Kernowsport technician performing AdBlue fix on Citroën C4 Cactus in Cornwall

Citroën C4 Cactus AdBlue Fix in Perran-ar-worthal

The first job of the day took us to Perran-ar-worthal, between Falmouth and Truro, where a 2016 Citroën C4 Cactus was showing the dreaded AdBlue countdown. We’ve worked on quite a few Citroën models recently — including the C4 Picasso, Grand Picasso, and C4 Cactus — and one thing that always amuses us is how the OBD ports are still positioned for left-hand drive cars. They’re on what would have been the driver’s side in France, which always makes us smile when plugging in our tools. After connecting diagnostics and applying the right fix, we were able to clear the AdBlue problem and get Marco’s car back to normal. Over a quick chat, we also shared our mutual love of good coffee — and Marco even left with a few of our personal recommendations for a new grinder! Another AdBlue issue resolved, another happy Kernowsport customer, and plenty more miles ahead for the C4 Cactus. If you’re having similar issues, check out our AdBlue Delete Services to learn how we can help. Why Choose Kernowsport for AdBlue Fixes in Cornwall?

Peugeot Expert van in Menheniot near Liskeard fixed by Kernowsport after AdBlue problems

Peugeot Expert AdBlue Fix in Menheniot near Liskeard

Job two of the day was a call-out to Menheniot, near Liskeard, where our customer was busy refurbishing a property but ran into vehicle trouble. Their 2020 Peugeot Expert was suffering from AdBlue problems and had started to smoke heavily, which wasn’t great for them, their vehicle, or their customers nearby. AdBlue issues can present in several ways, but in this case the pump had stuck on, spraying excess AdBlue into the exhaust. This caused plumes of unpleasant white smoke and made the van practically unusable. Fortunately, Kernowsport were able to diagnose and fix the fault quickly, carrying out the repair roadside in Menheniot. Within no time, the Peugeot Expert was back in its usual reliable condition without the need for lengthy downtime or a garage visit. For small businesses, keeping work vans on the road is essential — and we always do our best to work around your day and get your vehicle running smoothly again.

Mercedes C-Class back on the road in Cornwall after AdBlue and EGR delete by Kernowsport

Mercedes C-Class AdBlue Delete at St Ives Holiday Park in Hayle

One of today’s jobs took us to St Ives Holiday Park in Hayle, where a Mercedes C-Class diesel was suffering from the dreaded AdBlue countdown. We’ve seen quite a few Mercedes C200 and C220 models recently, all with similar issues. These can sometimes be a little tricky to work with, as the ECUs are either older units that take up to 90 minutes to read, or they need to be removed completely from the car to be remapped. This particular one was simply time-consuming rather than complicated. We carried out a full AdBlue delete, an EGR delete, and also applied a stage one performance remap. The end result? A C-Class that’s back on the road, AdBlue-free, and with improved performance — perfect for both reliability and driving enjoyment. Why Mercedes Owners in Cornwall Choose Kernowsport If your Mercedes diesel is showing AdBlue warnings or countdown messages, don’t wait until it reaches a no-start condition.

Kernowsport mobile ECU and AdBlue repair service in Camelford Cornwall

Mercedes GLE 350 AdBlue Fault in Camelford

Job number two today was an unusual one, and unfortunately interesting for all the wrong reasons. We were called to Camelford to look at a Mercedes GLE 350 that was suffering from persistent AdBlue issues. As usual, we carried out our diagnostic work, removed the AdBlue faults, and prepared the ECU fix. All went smoothly until we pressed the start button — and nothing happened. After two hours of diagnosis, testing with various tools, and even putting the original map back on, the cause became clear. Once this particular Mercedes GLE 350 records a “no start” AdBlue error, it cannot be cleared with standard tools — it requires a dealer reset to enable the engine to start again. This was the first case of its kind we’ve come across, and it serves as a valuable reminder: don’t ignore AdBlue warnings. This vehicle had been alerting the driver for more than 800 miles before finally locking itself into a no-start condition. For now, the car will need a trip to Mercedes for the reset. Once that’s done, we’ll return to apply the original Kernowsport AdBlue solution to prevent further issues. Why Fix AdBlue Faults Early? If your Mercedes, Audi, VW, or

Ford Ranger with AdBlue fault fixed by Kernowsport at Harts Haulage Redruth

Ford Ranger AdBlue Fix at Harts Haulage in Redruth

Job number two today took us to our good friends at Harts Haulage in Redruth, where a stunning 2018 Ford Ranger was struggling with AdBlue problems. Like many vehicles fitted with AdBlue systems, the sensors can become coated with crystals, causing false readings and triggering dashboard warnings. Left unchecked, these issues can quickly escalate into limp mode or even no-start countdowns. Fortunately, we’ve worked on plenty of these systems before and were able to diagnose and repair the AdBlue fault quickly, getting this 3.2-litre beast back into A1 condition and ready for work again. While we don’t see as many Ford Rangers as we do VW Amaroks these days, they remain a solid choice for trade and commercial use across Cornwall. It does seem that changes in tax rules have made them less common, but when maintained properly, they’re still a fantastic vehicle. Another happy customer, and another smooth fix for Kernowsport. Why Choose Kernowsport for AdBlue Problems in Cornwall? If your Ford Ranger, Amarok, or any other commercial vehicle is suffering from AdBlue issues, Kernowsport has the solution.

Peugeot 308 in Gorran Cornwall fixed by Kernowsport after AdBlue and DPF issues

Peugeot 308 AdBlue & DPF Issues Resolved in Gorran

On our way home from Looe, we received a call from the lovely Lisa about the second AdBlue problem of the day. Her Peugeot 308 was not only showing AdBlue warnings, but also flashing up a DPF cleaning required message — a double headache no driver wants to see. Lisa lived in Gorran, which (luckily for her, less so for our travel time!) was on our way back to Hayle, so we were happy to stop by and help. When we plugged in our Autel professional diagnostic tool, the ECU revealed more than 30 fault codes — far from normal. After a bit of investigation, we discovered the culprit: a broken battery connector that was intermittently cutting power and confusing the system. Once repaired, we carried out some ECU work, AdBlue adjustments, and a full code reset. By the end, Lisa’s Peugeot was running smoothly again, with no more limp mode or warning lights. At Kernowsport, we know how stressful AdBlue and DPF problems can be, especially when they threaten to leave you stranded. That’s why we offer fast, mobile solutions across Cornwall.

Toyota Proace camper in Looe Cornwall with AdBlue fix by Kernowsport

Toyota Proace Camper AdBlue Fix in Looe

Our first job of the day was a trip to Looe to visit Warren, who was having AdBlue issues on his well-kept Toyota Proace camper van. At Kernowsport, we always enjoy working on campervans and conversions — it’s a chance to see the different ways people set them up. Warren’s Proace was a fantastic example, fitted out as a day van with a smart solar system, leisure batteries, and an Apicool fridge. A proper little home-from-home! Unfortunately, like many modern vans, it had started suffering with AdBlue and DPF problems, which can be frustrating and ruin the enjoyment of a trip. Warren decided to call Kernowsport to get it sorted before it spoiled his plans. Luckily, this was one of the quicker jobs for us. We had the AdBlue and DPF issues resolved in under an hour — almost a record! By the time we left, the Proace was back in tip-top condition, ready for many more Cornish adventures.

Peugeot 5008 in Cornwall receiving AdBlue fix and ECU bench remap by Kernowsport

Peugeot 5008 AdBlue Fix & ECU Remap in Cornwall

We thought this would be our last job of the day — but no rest for us at Kernowsport! This time, we were called out to a Peugeot 5008 that had been suffering from increasingly frequent AdBlue issues, finally ending with the dreaded 600-mile countdown to no start warning. At first, we hoped this could be resolved via the car’s OBD port, but it turned out to be one of those cases where the ECU needed to be removed and worked on via the bench method. While it may sound more complicated, this approach is actually safer, as it allows us to take a full read from the ECU and always keep the original file in case anything ever needs restoring. Although it meant more work for us, the file remap completed successfully. On testing, the car initially showed a few errors, which can happen when the battery is disconnected during ECU removal. A quick reset with our professional-grade diagnostic tools cleared everything, and the Peugeot 5008 was back to running perfectly — with its AdBlue issues permanently resolved. Another happy customer, and another example of Kernowsport going the extra mile to keep Cornwall’s cars on the road. Why Choose

2015 Range Rover Evoque in Newquay awaiting AdBlue and DPF fix by Kernowsport.

Range Rover Evoque AdBlue & DPF Repair in Newquay

Our second job of the day took us to Newquay, where a customer had a 2015 Range Rover Evoque suffering from both AdBlue and DPF issues. We see a fair number of these Evoques from around 2016–2017, and while we’re familiar with the faults, they’re fitted with a variety of ECU types which can present different challenges. On this occasion, our trusted Alientech Kess 3 tool wasn’t able to process the job, so we turned to our Magic Motorsport Flex system instead. These two tools are very different but achieve the same result, and as professional tuners we rely on having multiple systems available — when one can’t do it, the other usually can. Thanks to having the right equipment and the experience to adapt, we were able to quickly resolve the EGR and AdBlue issues on this Evoque, along with the DPF problems that were causing it to underperform. Another Kernowsport customer left happy, with their Range Rover running smoothly again and ready for many more miles on Cornish roads. Related Services

Kernowsport mechanic removing ECU from 2022 Isuzu Grafter cab-over truck in Helston Cornwall

Isuzu Grafter AdBlue Fix in Rosudgeon, Helston – One of Our Toughest Jobs Yet

Today’s job was one of the most challenging we’ve faced at Kernowsport. We were called to Rosudgeon near Helston to resolve a serious AdBlue fault on a 2022 Isuzu Grafter LCV. The dashboard warning showed only 44 miles left before the truck would be disabled – meaning we had to act fast to keep it in service. Initially, we thought this would be a straightforward job, but it quickly turned into a test of patience and skill: Thankfully, owner Les was patient and understanding as we worked through the process. After hours of careful work, we completed the custom programming, reinstalled both ECUs, and successfully cleared the AdBlue faults. This little Grafter is now back on the road and ready for many more years of reliable service. At Kernowsport, whether it’s a simple remap or a complex multi-ECU job, we go the extra mile to get your vehicle running right.
