Mine gets used in about the same way that you're talking about using one and I'm having emissions issues. It's throwing the "regen too frequently" code. I understand why it did it the first time but I've made adjustments since and it's still throwing the code. My commute is only about 12 miles...
I appreciate the reply. My truck only has 5xxx miles and still has the OEM air filter so unfortunately I don't think that's my culprit. Good info though and I'm glad it's helped for you!
I posted this earlier today on another related thread and it falls within this topic. I left it out of the previous post but my commute is 30 miles round trip doing roughly 80% interstate speeds (65-75mph). Any ideas?
Just an update here. Had the regen issue a month ago. Bought the Hot Shot's Diesel Extreme and added it to a full tank. DEF fluid has remained above half a tank. Have not let the truck idle longer than a minute or two after starting up. My check engine light came on again yesterday with the same...
Are you referring to the "Diesel Extreme" or the "Everyday Diesel Treatment" from Hot Shot's? I'm having the regen issue and am searching for a solution.
Good info. I'll check out the Hot Shots stuff that you mentioned. I assume that if I quit using remote start and letting it run for 10-15 minutes frequently would help as well.
I agree. I remote start is pretty much every morning because it's still been upper 40's/lower 50's when I leave. And no, I can't say I watch the DPF screen at all but will start now.
The check engine light came on in my 2023 with 4,200 miles on it this morning so I scanned it and got the P2459 (DPF regen too frequent) code. I've been reading through all of this but I'll be honest, all of this percentage this/temperature that is way above my pay grade. My commute is short (14...
Yes, they are the stock 20's. It's stock height in the rear with just a 2.5" level up front. No spacers and did not do any trimming so it does rub a little at full lock in both directions. I've learned about where the rub point in the turning radius is so it's not much of a problem for me.
They're 2.5" coil spacers. I'm not running wheel spacers right now so there is a very slight rub at full lock but my F250 that I drove for the last three years was the same way so I guess I'm used to it and it doesn't bother me that bad. Those tires and wheel are going to look nice on that new...
The ride is just as good as stock. I just went with the spacer kit and shock extensions for now since the shocks are brand new but will upgrade a little later once I get some miles on it. They didn't have a bit of trouble with the balancing and rides like factor at highway speeds.
