2016 DEF capacity
It has been along time (4 years) since I've seen a 500 miles to empty display on the truck for def. I normally just add a 2.5 gallon jug before leaving on a long move with the 5th wheel. I don't remember the last time I put any in. A couple weeks ago it showed the display just before a move and I wasn't worried about it seeing it was only a couple hundred mile move towards civilization. I thought that the level would be low and bought 2 2.5 gallon jugs after arriving. I figured it would take 1 and some of the other jug. It didn't even take 1, maybe quart or so left in it. I would of thought with 5 gallon capacity that a 500 mile to empty display it would of taken more the 2+ gallons of def.
Anyone else seen or notice this?

I never had a problem with my 16. When I would get the 500 miles to empty message, I would put in a 2.5 gal jug, then start on the other one and maybe get half in or so I want to say...
But I normally don't wait until it gets down that much... I remember a Ford Tech here saying to add a jug full every 3k to 4k miles....
Some guys have problems by doing that but I never have... From what I've gathered from being here is that the 3 DEF level sensor system in our 11 to 16s CAN BE finicky when it comes to this but not always.
