Project Remaps was recently called out to a 2017 Land Rover Discovery 2.0 diesel, 180 bhp, with an AdBlue countdown that was close to reaching its limit. The vehicle also had an engine management warning light illuminated, requiring diagnostic investigation to identify the faults recorded in the system.

The Problem: AdBlue Countdown Nearly Run Out

The main concern was the Discovery’s AdBlue countdown, which had almost reached its limit. With the warning still active, the customer needed the issue investigated. We began with diagnostic checks to establish which faults were present on this particular vehicle.

Diagnostic Findings: P2BAD, P2BAF, P2BAE, P16A4 and P16A6

Our diagnostic checks identified five diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs):

  • P2BAD
  • P2BAF
  • P2BAE
  • P16A4
  • P16A6

On this vehicle, these codes were associated with the AdBlue system. Together with the active countdown and engine management light, they formed the basis of our investigation.

Fault codes need to be considered alongside the vehicle’s symptoms. A stored code alone should not be treated as confirmation that a particular component needs replacing.

Work Carried Out on the Land Rover Discovery

Following diagnosis, we proceeded with our full AdBlue software removal on the 2017 Land Rover Discovery.

Once the work was complete, the engine management light was cleared and the AdBlue countdown was removed. The vehicle was left in good running condition.

The Result: Engine Warning Light and Countdown Cleared

  • Engine management light cleared
  • AdBlue countdown removed
  • Vehicle left running well

For this Discovery, the immediate warning light and countdown concerns were resolved following the work carried out by Project Remaps.

Land Rover Discovery AdBlue Fault Diagnosis

If your Land Rover Discovery is displaying an AdBlue warning, an engine management light or a countdown message, accurate diagnosis is the starting point.

When contacting Project Remaps, provide your vehicle’s year, engine specification, the exact dashboard warning and any diagnostic fault codes already recorded. This information helps us understand the symptoms and discuss the next steps for your vehicle.
