Hi all. Just tried to top up the adblue tank from the pump at my local garage. Nozzle goes in filler neck ok, but will not pump fluid. Pull the lever, pumps 0.2 litre then stops. Tried the other pump, same result. Garage man tried, same result. He says the pump is sensing that the tank is full and doing the auto stop function. Tank is low - 5500 miles since last fill by OPC.
Has anyone else had this problem? I don't want mess about filling from 1 ltr containers, not least because it is twice as expensive as well as a hassle.
Any ideas please?

Buy the large can and split it up into smaller cans yourself .
Sure it will keep in the garage.
 
If the tank is very empty the back pressure of air has that effect it will need a few litres put in slowly before it will get going.

Thank you. Sounds exactly right. Air bubbles were forcing their way around the filler nozzle. Will follow your advice.

Cheers
Paul
