can't get rid of Ad Blue warning light

[boeing100]

Hi All

I am the happy owner of the XC60 D4 2019 which I took possession of in November 2018. For the first time yesterday, the Ad-Blue warning light came on.

I bought a 10L tank at a BP station and filled it up. However when I turn on the car, the warning light still appears to say I need to fill the ad-blue tank. I checked in the "car status" page and the ad-blue tank does show full.


Does anyone know why the warning is not resetting itself? or should I take the car for a spin and it will eventually go off once the engine has run for a while?

Thanks

It is a known issue, I had an XC90 loan car while mine was in for power pulse hose or some other work and it had the Ad-blue light on, (not having it on my XC90 I thought it was a low fuel light and puzzled as it still had over a 1/4 tank off diesel)
When I returned it I told the service manager about it and he told me it was the Ad-blue light and said it had already been filled up, he said they have had a few cases of this happening.
Others on here have also reported it, I am not sure if the light will reset itself eventually or if a visit to dealer is required.

thanks, i was hoping to avoid having to make a trip to the dealership. It does say the car will stop turning on after 480 miles so hopefully it will either resolve itself, or will have no choice but to take the car in.

Mine needed a dealership visit to fix. From what I gathered from the service manager, it needed resetting and then taking on a 30 mile journey.

When did Adblue become part of the diesel mix for Volvo engines? I know it's to help reduce the NOx emissions. Just wondering as I drive a 2015 Volvo.

Came in about November 2017, mine was one of the first XC 60,s to have it. It was built December 2017

Should have been introduced long before. I know commercial diesel vehicles had been using it for a while. If it helps to make emissions cleaner then I'm all for it.
