Think I've solved my 'problem'?

My drive has a very slight slope, such that the rear of the car sits ever so slightly lower than the front. Tried to refill again, but had the same overflowing problem.

So, after bothering to read the #%^*ing manual, it says that the car needs to be level. It does and the rest of the 10L containers contents slid down.

It must be down to the shape of the AdBlue tank, but the merest slope towards the rear, means very little can be filled?

Might try it in the 'nose down' position next time, but hope this little gem of info, prompts people to add a spirit level to their car kit, just in case their AdBlue light comes on? ;)

^ Good info thanks! Mine was slightly nose down when I filled it. Initially it was a bit slow but a quick trip around the block and the rest went in fine :D
