Can you mix different  types/colours of coolant?

Also, does coolant expire  in the can?  Old one in the garage 10 years,  wasn't sure if it was still ok  to use

VW Golf 2.0 TDI - engine management light on with warning p2237 02 sensor Current control circuit open bank 1 Sensor 1
Anyone know where that sensor is? Car is driving fine

2019 Vauxhall insignia just turned 60k miles. Warning has come on the screen saying "service adblue system,engine restart prevented in xxx miles"

Have always kept the adblue topped up in the car and when I seen the message the first thing I did was top it up,I can usually see the level the adblue is up on my car screen but can access anything now as that message is permanent on the screen and can't scroll past.

Car no longer under warranty so will likely have to speak with mechanic I'm assuming

Get your mechanic to map the adblue system out

That's for the reply general,is that a big job? Any reason for this happening? Anything to do with the car turning 60k miles??

Clutch has gone in my volvo.  Can't get a mechanic to look at it anytime soon!  Either they're snowed under or they don't want to touch this type of thing anymore.   It lost pressure about 6 months ago and a change of gear or brake oil at the time seemed to fix it.  But it's gone completely now.  If anyone knows anyone reliable around the Belfast area could you send me a message.

During the big storm, I lost plenty of slates from the roof and with all of that, something hit the bonnet of the car and scraped it in multiple places. It somehow is not dented, but badly enough scraped. Anyone know if that's a costly respray?

Probably around 3 or 4 hundred.

cost me 2/300 to get done. it just bypasses the adblue system, wont ask for adblu again. its probably a sensor gone. happened to me a few times.

Some vehicles, like mine, can't get it mapped out. Or the dpf mapped out for that matter. Some ultra locked down system apparantly. I'd assume other vehicles will introduce this over time, so you may not be able to get it mapped out. But definately worth a try.

What's the alternative to not being able to get it mapped out?? New part?

 Have sent a message to mechanic with few pictures of the warning messages to see what he things it is or has seen it before.f**k car problems are a ball ache aren't they

AdBlue is an absolute scam in every way possible.
