Hey everybody, as the title says? What are your average Def fluid fillup intervals
I got the car (2014 passat tdi comfort line) at 42000km now it has 56000km and still no Def fill up light.
I average 950-1050 a tank depending on how heavy i am on the pedal.
70% city (below 80km) 30% hwy (above 80km), ***side note I have achieved 2 +1100km tanks but mainly 95% hwy at 120km/hr ***
I mention this because I've read the more city driving and worse fuel economy per tank the sooner the Def light comes on as more Def is required at consistently higher rpms and lower vehicle speed (under 80km/hr) ( getting up to speed in stop and go city driving)
I assume the dealer filled it up upon fixing all recalls and changing all the parts like brake parts, tires, fuel filter, brake fluid, transmission fluid , when they posted the car for sale. ( this was a dieselgate buy back car that sat a year or so until the dealer won it at a auction then I bought it) POINT BEING I've put just over 13000km since I acquired it. I read most people average 11000-13000, so im just checking.
Thanks guys
