Diesel Exhasut Fluid at the Pump vs BlueDef Jugs | Chevy Silverado 2500 HD Duramax Custom

I have a couple 3500 silverados. The truck stop def isn’t cheaper in the long run. Full tank of DEF from truck stop last about 800 miles. Blue DEF last me about 1600 miles Blue def platinum last me about 2200 miles. Not only that the truck stop def dropped my mpgs and the platinum helped my mpgs. So yes cheaper at the pump but more expensive in the pocket. You’ll be buying more def and fuel use it from the truck stop. I’m a hot shot driver so I put in a lot of miles and researched all the def out there. Hands down to the blue def platinum

[@Myksgarage]

Interesting observation. Thanks for sharing

[@dannyg5598]

You must run a Ram as a hot shot I get 1200 miles at the pump for 5 gallons of DEF also DEF Is based off of mpg economy If you didn’t know that

[@Bpf1893]

Blue def platinum made my truck, and many others, go into limp mode for poor def quality.

[@dianahamister8175]

Good to know!! I was wondering why my mpg dropped. Wow!

[@jdaniel11405822]

I used to be a truck driver and I work at a diesel repair dealership. Getting DEF from the truck stops is a bad idea because they are known for bad DEF which gets really expensive for repairs. Box fluid is much better for the aftertreatment

[@Myksgarage]

Interesting to hear all of the different experiences with DEF

[@El_Lobo_Blanco]

​@@Myksgarage hes right im a trucker for 12 years def from pump is the worst you can do i buy the jugs blue def.

[@raylewis3355]

I wonder how clean is the DEF coming out of the pump vs a clean jug???

[@Myksgarage]

Yeah I wonder that as well

[@bozkurt7673]

Just like buying fuel, as clean as the quality of the fuel station,.

[@ICE-FYB]

As a semi truck owner I can 110% tell you def at the pump IS NOT the way to go.. I have got bad def so many times from the pump and the only way to know unless you test it is by your truck telling you aka nox efficiency codes which will put you on the side of the road quick.

[@Myksgarage]

So do you buy the jugs?

[@petekane2501]

I am still not sure if buying from truck stop vs buying box which is better. Box gotta watch dates. Truck stop certainty more fresh but is it clean top quality. I gotta believe truck stop def like gas must be tested & is good. Price might be cheaper at truck stop vs store jugs

[@Myksgarage]

Yeah, have to be careful either way

[@alexdailey1359]

how often do you need to fill the def

[@Myksgarage]

I'd say around every 4-7k miles.

[@homemprovmentguy]

@@Myksgaragethe answer I came here for. Even if the tank in my new-to-me 2015 3500 pickup holds only a couple gallons, sounds like something I can manage without effing anything up 👍🏻 Anything else this first time diesel owner should learn? Thank you!

[@clifdavis9013]

The service dept. at the dealer where I bought my truck told me that there’s two things to know about DEF: 1: don’t fill it up, unless you’re towing constantly, or taking a multi-thousand mile trip. DEF has a shelf life, and under normal everyday driving, the DEF may go past its shelf life, before you use it all. They told me to let it get down around 15-20% then just add a 2 1/2 gallon jug, which would put it back up to 65-ish% full. (On my ‘16 Duramax) And 2: learn to read the date of manufacture code on the box of blue DEF. (There’s KZbin videos that show you how to read the code),…. And get the newest stuff you can find on the shelf.

[@hav1byte]

you do realize that when the def is filled at the pump by delivery trucks, you dont really know how much of the old stuff in the tank is being mixed with the new stuff in the delivery truck? better to by the jugs and examine the product date on the box for the freshest stuff.

[@Myksgarage]

True, however this truck stops go through some much of this DEF that I’m confident it’s not an issue.

[@markmidkiff7048]

But with that, you do realize as well that when you buy DEF in the jug, you have NO clue on how it was stored before it got to the store shelf. Both have drawbacks

[@markmidkiff7048]

@@Myksgarage agree. But like I stated in earlier post. Be mindful of the pump condition at truck stop. Make sure hose it stored as intended and nozzle door is closed from previous user. If not, move to another pump.

[@tommccoythomasm2505]

When you get your DEF out of the ground it is new stuff put together with old stuff as it is replaced you don't know how old it is because it is mixed, on the other hand when you buy the box it is dated and you know how old it is.

[@Myksgarage]

Good point!

[@garrettn.8585]

Are you not concerned more about the quality of the DEF than a cheap price?

[@Myksgarage]

I'm more concerned about the quality

you can go 500 miles after empty before the computer will limit you to 65mph. don't stress about it. i sure don't

[@Myksgarage]

Yeah good point

[@elgringoec]

That sounds vehicle dependent. Others have reported "limp mode" and no subsequent starting.

[@speedshifter1981]

You should only but DEF from the box to ensure good quality DEF.

[@Myksgarage]

Interesting opinion

[@Stoplyingandlearnsomething]

Most guys will tell you the only thing that matters is that it’s not expired, as the urea % can change. Pump at a truck stop should be good. Unless you’ve got the tool to test % you won’t know until your truck tells you if you get bad def. I’ve heard lots of complaints on the platinum causing problems.

[@squirrelatwork]

How many miles do you get on a fill with DEF

[@Myksgarage]

5-6k miles, less if you're towing a lot

[@joemama8379]

Whoever gets that vehicle after you trade it in eventually is getting a well taken care of vehicle

[@Myksgarage]

Thanks for the positive comment!!

[@markmidkiff7048]

But...yes, truck stop is probably the freshest DEF since it's used daily by big rigs. Its all regulated to be made the same regardless of the brand. But truck stop DEF is more at risk for crystallization because of fluid left in the pump hose from previous fills. DEF crystallizes from age, poorly storage and rapidly from exposure to the atmosphere. Not saying don't use Truck stop DEF, it's most certainly cheaper. But make sure the hose and nozzle was stored properly from the previous use. That means hose rolled up, door sealed etc... You definitely don't want to risk pumping crystallized fluid in your tank just to save a couple of buck when you fill up.

[@Myksgarage]

Good tips, thanks for sharing

[@speedshifter1981]

I’m an owner operator. Trust me DO NOT BUY DEF FROM THE PUMP ITS DILUTED. Poor Quality etc. Only buy DEF from the box

[@bozkurt7673]

Well depends on how busy the gas station you go to, I always get my diesel and def at speedway by my house, it is very busy truck stop , they wouldn't risk their business with bad fuel or def to make one of the truck driver unhappy, he will make sure every semi driver know not go there, so I am confident to say use good truck stop and you will be fine with clean fuel and def.

[@Myksgarage]

Great point
