DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID - WARNING LIGHTS

Hello - new to the group, please go easy on me!

My LR Disco, had the warning light pop up with the message 'incorrect diesel exhaust fluid quality detected'. I took it to my local LR specialist and he tried to clear the message without success and now have another warning light with the message that the engine will not start in 500 miles.
Can anyone throw any light on this?
TIA

Your **** tank (adblue) has the wrong fluid in it, or no fluid.

That's what that message says.

Hi there, I check the levels and there was still adblue in the system, and I topped it up, but the message remained. That's when I took it to my local specialist and he was unable to clear the message but gave me another message about the car not being able to start when it get to 500 miles..

Any help appreciated
Best

Change specialist ...

Any local specialist that tells you 'he doesn't know' and to 'ask on the internet' isn't as that good IMO.
What is he a specialist in ?

I get that, thank you

Penny to a pound it is the adblue quality sensor, quite a common fault on the trucks.
Have no idea where it is on the cars, but on the trucks it tends to be in the bottom of the standpipe.

You can check adblue quality with a refractometer, under 15 quid off ebay, needs to be 32.5 percent, checked loads and tbh not found any dodgy adblue yet, it is always a mech/elec issue.

Thank you

Had this on my discovery 4, there is a software update for the adblue, all addblue is the same quality, you need the new software installing, once installed the car had to be driven appropriately 40 miles for the fault to clear.
LR assist came out to do mine.

In the hgv world, the first thing you do is check the adblue quality, the drivers can be interesting at times!
