AdBlu is basically the contents of your toilet pan after relieving yourself in a liquid manner - urea and water. That's meant to clean the emissions up??? How dirty can they be if THAT cleans them up????? Wake up and smell the (already drunk) coffee!

There was a big propaganda campaign for diesels in the early-mid 80s, many text books disappeared from school library (and other) shelves as they contained proof diesel was carcinogenic.
Allegedly the reason these books were removed was they were no longer relevant to the syllabus but similar books containg almsot exactly the same but without references to diseasel were left. Need i say more?
Dave, trying to un-brainwash the "diesiesesl am clean" morons is a pointless task
they will Never see the truth and trot out all manner of "excuses"
main one "i do xx miles" when they mean "I save ££££ that is all that matters"


as for the brain dead phone users, darwin
**also could/would create new jobs, cleaning the mess they left on the road up after the flip over car while fannytwittergramming
****due to gov cut backs bring your own ppe ,bucket and EU approved mop,,

Ha ha ha you made me laugh and create more AdBlu at the expense of soggy underpants.

XC60 D4 2WD 2016 MY - 117 g/km CO2
XC60 T5 2WD 2016 MY - 164 g/km CO2

So 40% more greenhouse gas from the petrol version. Sunlight is carcinogenic don't you know?
