Hello everyone,

Please excuse us if this topic has already been discussed. We have read the relevant threads, but have not found a solution to our problem. Furthermore, we are facing a time-sensitive issue.

We are in Mongolia with our VW T6, model year 2016, and we have a "Ad Blue (DEF) countdown" warning (engine will not start after 1000km). We need to be at the Chinese border on September 1st, so we would be very grateful for your help.

We had the error codes P204F and P20EE, along with a countdown timer related to AdBlue. We were able to clear these errors using a simple OBD scanner and the CarScanner app, and they haven't reappeared.

We have to mention that we already experienced the countdown, including error messages, approximately 8,000 km ago. However, these issues disappeared after a longer period of consistent driving.

- The DPF regeneration is functioning correctly.
- AdBlue is filled (70%) - we can't say much about the quality - it may not be perfect (it comes from Kazakhstan and a little from Mongolia, and we had it filled by a workshop after the problem occurred).
- We removed and cleaned the AdBlue injector. It was slightly dirty.

We have a VCDS here since today, and we have already done the following:

- Autoscan performed.
- AGR check passed - OK.
- IDE00471: DPF regeneration service performed and completed.

We wanted to test the efficiency of the SCR, but it's not triggering, and the incandescent lamp isn't lighting up. What could be the reason for this?

We performed the auto-scan and have attached the results.

Maybe you have some more ideas about what we can do. We're feeling quite desperate right now.

Thank you in advance, and best regards.

Dominik.
