P24FFReductant Temperature Too High
The temperature of the AdBlue/DEF in the dosing system exceeds the safe limit — risk of thermal decomposition (NH3/biuret formation) and clogged dosing nozzles. Often caused by a stuck-on tank heater, a stalled coolant return or proximity to a hot exhaust component.
