1. Diesel exhaust fluid

Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is a non-toxic liquid used in modern diesel vehicles to help reduce harmful emissions. It's part of a system called Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR).

  • DEF goes in a separate tank, not the fuel tank.
  • A warning light shows when DEF is low.
  • Reduces air pollution from diesel engines.
  • Helps vehicles meet emission standards (like Euro 6 or EPA regulations).
  • Required in most modern diesel trucks, buses, and some cars.
  • How It Works:
    • DEF is injected into the exhaust system, not the engine.
    • It reacts with nitrogen oxides (NOx) in the exhaust.
    • The reaction converts harmful NOx gases into nitrogen and water vapor, which are harmless.
