If I didn't fill my tank to the brim does the adblue fluid not get put through?

If the adblue is in a different tank it will be fine.

Sorry, I read somewhere on here that you should always fill your tank to the brim when the fuel light is on - does this affect the regen fluid being put through the system?

If you over fill the tank it just overflows like any other car.

That warnings for the ENGINE oil
Diesel's can run away on there own oil & destroy themselves
If a diesel picks up on its own oil then this happens

Only ways to stop them is stall it, CO extinguisher squirted up the air intake, block the air intake OR wait for the engine to explode

Cerine is injected based on how much diesel you put into the tank. Doesn't matter whether its £10 or £50.

This is getting confusing!! Have you a seperate tank for the adblue? If so that works independently from your main fuel tank.
