    I have just began to smell this very strong ammonia smell under my truck, not throwing any codes yet but it sure smells like something is wrong.

    anyone have any experience with this same problem?

    thanks

    DEF is made from cow urine.
    If you’re smelling it ,
    Youre leaking it .

    BIG MISCONCEPTION. Urea used in trucks is made synthetic for decades.
    It's original purpose was as fertilizer.
