My 2020 Kuga ST Line X 1.5 Ecoblue is currently managing around only 1500 miles between 10 litre fill ups of Adblue. I think this consumption is excessive but the garage say “it’s within tolerance“. Anyone else had this experience?

It varies depending on how you drive the car and the sort of journeys. That doesn't sound excessive.

I’ve done 3,400 miles and not topped up the adblue. Mines a 2ltr eco blue AWD. Mostly short journeys due to lockdown, although the odd 70 mile plus thrown in occasionally

~ 20,000 miles since last August with lots of motorway miles and around 50 mpg average.

AdBlue®: consumption by make and vehicle. Do the test yourself! (changeforblue.com)

Got the same problem here. After 2500 km (approx 1500 miles) i had to top up the Adblue tank (10 liters).
The onboard CPU estimates about 5000 KM (3000 miles) with a full tank.
I assume this is "normal" but still in my opinion the consumption is excessive.

I also had a look here : AdBlue®: consumption by make and vehicle. Do the test yourself!

Anyways, very very annoying.

I would be interested to know exactly what driving

Read somewhere just last week while Googling diesel cars that the estimated consumption was 25 litres on a Ford Kuga in an average years motoring but cannot remember where I read it. Does driving style affect it in the same way as fuel consumption, I suspect it does
