Adblue panic time
Discussion
It has come time to add Adblue to my Citroen C4 Picasso Grand, but on looking under the offside 3rd row, where the manual and the net says I should find a screw cap under a hole in the lining is...... nothing!
Just a plastic surface of what I presume is the Adblue tank! Those dozy French workers have forgotten to put a cap on. Gods alone know how it was filled on the production line.
I'm taking it to the dealer tomorrow but in the meantime,any suggestions?
I have only 200 miles before I can't start it,and it's not helped that the dealer is a 100 mile round trip.

Quoted for stupidity.Just a plastic surface of what I presume is the Adblue tank! Those dozy French workers have forgotten to put a cap on. Gods alone know how it was filled on the production line.

Very likely quoted for stupidity,but there is NO black cap!!!! Just the carpet and some grey-ish plastic underneath. No idea how it was filled in the factory, but it looks nothing like the pictures, there is NOTHING to unscrew.
Sounds a bit strange admittedly, although maybe you should have attempted to top it up when it started flashing at you at 1500 miles left which then flashes every 200 miles, or maybe when the SERVICE illuminates and the indicator UREA flashes below 375 miles, along with an audible signal, or maybe, just maybe, when the message is shown every 30 seconds if the level has not been adjusted.Just a thought.

Just a thought.
Maybe it shouldn't be unnecessarily awkward to refill an essential fluid?Just a thought.

I get the criticism for leaving it so long but even if someone has a single figure IQ, the cap should be easy to locate.
I thought most cars put it under the fuel flap. Why *wouldn't* they put it there?
