All are scheduled for withdrawal by late 2014.<ref name=history>{{cite news |title=Railfan|publisher=Triple M Publications|volume=20|number=3|ISSN=1173-2229|date=June 2014}}</ref>

{{As of|2014|9|15}}, all services on the Manukau Line are operated by the [[New Zealand AM class electric multiple unit|AM class]]. As a result of this, all ADK units were placed into storage. Services to Papakura formerly run by ADKs are now run by ADLs, also displaced from the Manukau Line. A farewell trip was run by the [[Railway Enthusiasts Society]] on 16 November 2014, running on every suburban line in Auckland.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.gvr.co.nz/Rail+Excursions++Tours/The+Last+Diesel+Subbie+Train+In+Auckland.html|title=The Last Diesel Subbie Train In Auckland Farewell to the SA's|date=20 September 2015}}{{Dead link|date=June 2022 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> The units were completely withdrawn on 20 July 2015.
