Adblue system deletion

Just finished my van conversion (2017 Boxer) and now find myself mired in the damn Adblue problem - dashboard notification telling me the Adblue level is low and needs to be refilled BUT it is full. Had it to Peugeot in Wexford and they couldn't sort the issue or do a reset; only solution is to replace the complete unit for only €1310 - beautiful coming at the end of my conversion. And for those members not familiar with the Adblue problem (like me one month ago) when the warning appears you then have approx 2400 km before the engine shuts down and won't restart!
My mechanic tells me the Adblue system can be deleted and that's the end of the problem. Or is it? - I've read that it is illegal to drive a vehicle with a deleted Adblue system. Also recently read that some drivers in the UK were getting fined for driving vehicles with deleted Adblue systems.
I have a concern regarding the shutting off/deletion of the Adblue system in a campervan. Aside from the fact that it is illegal to drive a vehicle to which this has been done, does it void one's insurance cover? I'd welcome hearing other people's experiences and opinions on the issue.

That's fine mad max but how one might really get caught is if you have a crash and your Insurance Co discovers you have been driving a modified vehicle which is illegal and you didn't declare it to them - my fear is that in this scenario one's insurance cover is void and then you are in the s**t.
Are there any insurance/legal experts among the mhc membership who could offer an opinion? I just don't want to hand an Insurance Co. an O.G.

I emailed them there this evening and it could take a couple of days before they reply. When they do I'll post the details of their reply - it should be of benefit to some members experiencing the same problem AND any unsuspecting members upgrading to a campervan or motorhome built on Euro 6 vehicle base.

has your insurance company insured your new camper van as a fully converted camper van with a nice generous value or a l g v still

Relay racer - my conversion was certfied fully, vrt paid and tax & insured as a campervan, not as a lgv.

Does anyone know if there has been any concerted tackling of the van manufacturers over this issue because they are installing a system that is clearly not fit for purpose and hammering owners with huge replacement bills?
Could a campaign be initiated? A protest gathering outside Peugeot HQ in Dublin?
S**t though my van might shut down on the way up or on the way back.
I wonder how many members are affected?

Thanks Sprinter, well I've had it with my own mechanic without success and then to Peugeot in Wexford again without success - they could only suggest a complete new unit costing €1310!!
I started this thread out of concern for insurance implications if one deletes the Adblue system. I'm expecting a response from my insurance broker early next week and tbh I'm not overly optimistic that it will be favourable.
I'll post as soon as I have that response.

some time it can be the fault of the diagnostic equipment? they can lead you on a merry dance it sounds like a level sensor in the tank .
what can happen is ad blue spillage , fluid can contaminate the multi plug and give a false reading the sensors work on 5 volts check the reservoir for a sensor in the side of it or the float inside the tank could be stuck especially if the ad blue has been run down low.
some times that fault is locked into your ECU for 30 days and a main dealer has to over ride it because its a euro 6 .
try hitting the tank with a block of wood

I had a problem with my car cutting out in traffic queues and at lights and roundabouts while going through neutral. Main dealer diagnose low fuel pressure by error codes. They recommended a new fuel pump plus getting the injectors done, a fine four figure sum.
A local Polish lad diagnosed a faulty sensor telling lies. Sensor replaced and job done for €100 and the problem dissappear for ever.

It was about six or seven years ago. I've heard he is now operating from a premises near Killumney, west of Cork City but he might not even be still there.
There is something about Polish mechanics, they seem to be much better at workarounds and mending than a lot of our homegrown types. Maybe it's a throwback to before the Iron Curtain came down and stuff was really scarce and workarounds and repair was a necessity of life.

There are two guys worhing around Gorey, the live and also work from home in Cranford. Might be worth giving them a call. I'll get you a number for them if you think it may help?.

Just had a reply to my query to Dolmen Insurance brokers regarding deletion of the Adblue system from a vehicle. They checked with the underwriters, Axa, and they say the vehicle is not covered because to drive a vehicle with it deleted is against EU legislation on emissions reduction and therefore illegal - it confirms, unfortunately, what was my worst fear. Sorry to be the bearer of such bad news to all those p****d off with this diabolical, not-fit-for-purpose system.

tbh eirbus I don't know, it's not an area in which I'm in any way expert but I reckon since a check on Adblue is now part of the MOT in the UK that it isn't rocket science. My concern is the lenghts that Insurance Co's will go to finding a chink in one's armour and leave one in the s**t. I'm damn sure when an Insurance Co brings in an assessor to review a claim that a check on the Adblue system is not too far from the top of their checklist and if found to be deleted - bingo!
Maybe other people have different opinions on it but I have decided not to run the risk and especially since we plan to do the odd trip the UK (where owners with deleted systems are being fined if caught by the DVSA) and the continent; I'm booking in for a new sealed unit much as I find it a bitter pill to swallow.
