Afternoon all... I have an unopened 10L bottle of Adblue in the garage, it was purchased in 2020 so is 4 years old, so does it go off and become unusable?

Date was smudged during printing, looks like a new 10L tub then.
Will have a look at the Redex.
Cheers Andy...

Will do matey... I don't use much, but I reckon it will be getting low after 11k miles and was reading it will be less likely to crystallise if the tank is kept full.

It also deteriorates due to UV light exposure
