My Adblu froze. (-32 C) Does anybody know if the heater will unthaw the solutiuon . If so how long with the vehicle running? Will the engine lite go out by itself once unthawed? As long as it is frozen, can I expect any problems with the vehicle. ( 2011 M class) tks Can it be untawed with an interior heater. ?

light will need to be cleared with a scan tool.
the whole system is heated. lines, tanks, etc. but if its frozen it may not be enough to thaw the system. if you drive it you will start a count down and could be left stranded. you will get an error message in cluster on remaining starts.
IMO if you have a garage or alike put it in there until system thaws out.
the tank is located in the back of the vehicle. so an aux heater placed within range of vehicle may thaw it faster but I would be afraid of messing up the paint on the rear bumper.
