My son bought a 2012 Passat TDI. He ran the car out of DEF and now it will not start. I think the problem is there isn't enough DEF in the car as he only added about 2 gallons. I have 3 questions: 1. does the DEF need to be filled to the brim? 2. Will the car restart on it's own after filling completely or does it need some kind of reset? 3. If it needs a reset is that something that can be done by us or does it need to be done by a dealer?
