Is it an OM642 ?

Fair enough....but I've never seen it mentioned on other forums I'm on.. even the so called "unreliable" ALFAs. We recently killed a GTD Golf at work with 230,000 miles on...but it never had an Adblue issue....its replacement had so far done 30k with no issues either.
 
Both our 2020 Fiat Ducato's developed DPF/Adblue issues and died at 176K We spent 5 grand on a new DPF and Ablue injector, on one of them. The other one chucked the cam belt and was scrapped for 2k. Now running a Sprinter since August 2024 with 28k on the clock. Our old Euro 4 Ducato has 315k on it and still drives like a proper old trooper. OK it groans and rattles a bit, but has done 550 miles today and never missed a beat.

Virtually everyone we know through dog agility drives a van, and problems with newer ones of all makes are rife. Having the AdBlue mapped out is very common as the repair cost for that is often close to the value of the vehicle.
