Posible DEF leak, any ideas?

Toyo · 03-15-2015, 08:50 PM

Just notice this going on under the car. 335D with around 20k on it, I have not added DEF recently, no other issues noticed. Could the tank be cracked or is there a vent around that area. Any ideas??

Oh shoot, that is funny and nasty at the same time....

If your car is still under warranty take it to a dealer. If you are off warranty, you will have to take the exhaust off to get to the tank.

New meaning to the term money shot.

Its funny but worries me at the same time. Hope is nothing serious.

Nice DEF stalactite! I had problems with my tank leaking:

The dealer changed the SCR delivery module b/c it was over-pressurizing the tank. Your leak looks to be much slower than mine.

There is a bit of a stalagmite in there as well. Who's going to be a spelunker under the car?
