Audi A5 AdBlue problems and delete

What an AdBlue delete changes on the A5
If your A5 is a diesel with AdBlue, the delete stops the ECU dosing fluid and monitoring the SCR system. The "AdBlue system fault" warning and any countdown are cleared with the codes.
Is it worth it on an A5?
The fixed £330 + VAT usually undercuts the parts. If you go for the repair, our check tells you what to ask the dealer for.
AdBlue delete or a dealer repair for my A5?
It depends how the A5 is used. Our diagnostic check shows which part has failed, so you can weigh the repair quote against the delete.
Is an A5 AdBlue delete legal?
Off-road and for export, yes. On an A5 used on public roads, it's illegal, as our guide to whether an AdBlue delete is legal explains.
What does the £330 + VAT cover on an A5?
The visit, a code read, AdBlue switched off in the ECU and all related faults cleared.
Will the delete stop the A5's countdown?
Yes, the countdown ends once the system is switched off in the software.
