It sounds like the adblue needs topping up. The car has selective catalytic reduction to reduce NOx emissions and this depends on adblue to provide ammonia for the catalyst. Thumbs Up

If only as simple, quality not quantity. I'm told it's not just me but doesn't seem to be a definite fix at this moment

Adblue can crystallise, which may be causing your problems.

Will be interested to hear the outcome.

Hi,

Ad blue quality can vary, just like engine oil quality.

The manual for my 24MY states:-

Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF). Diesel. AdBlue™ meeting ISO 22241 and ISO 22241-1.Diesel Exhaust Fluid is also known as DEF, AdBlue, AUS 32 and ARLA 32.

I have heard of some types of Ad Blue being “over diluted” and I seem to recall there was a software update on my 16MY L494 about “ Ad Blue quality”.

I always buy a reputable brand ( Redex).
