For sure ! I usually hear the sound first then look at my gauge and boom, says ON lol

I have a scan gauge 3 that I mounted in the truck that tells me when it’s in regen . Since using Archoil additive my DPF gauge never comes off empty! Pretty cool there . Before , mine was like yours and got to 20% few times . Be aware that it will automatically regen at 24 hours drive time or...

Just finished a 2100 mile trip with the new 2025 pulling my 20K pound horse trailer. First observation was that it didn't even know the trailer was there! I had to really watch my speed cause it would go 80 at the drop of a hat!! My second observation was the exaust brake. I never had to touch...

675 miles, 23 hours and 4 idle.

Correct!! My 25 just did its first regen and I was seeing EGTs well over 1000

My 25 just did its first regen last night at 675 miles , 23 total hours of run time . I use a scan gauge to monitor . Regen started immediately ( went active) on a coms engine start after truck was parked couple days . Didn’t even wait for it to warm up. EGT quickly went over 1000 degrees and it...

Sorry about the signature , yes 2025 6.7. I was a Cummins guy my whole life and tried a ford and happy to be back ! They are having their fair share of HPfP issues so I always ran their additive . Glad to know I don’t need it every time . I’m loving the idea of the 6400 every 5k miles!

Thanks ! Looks like I will get some Archoil and just use it at regular intervals then . Just wasn’t sure if I needed day to day lubricity

Now that I'm back in a Ram, whats the general consensus on additives? Ive always used optilube but just not sure how necessary it is these days. Thanks !

Tech said the hose clamp was cutting into the hose . Either a defective clamp or hose . Not sure . Once the part got there they had it back to me in an hour . Ive put 150 miles on it so far and ifs staying dry so all good

Hey there does your EDGE CTS work on the 25? Jut picked my new truck up and edge says they won't work until August and some are reporting dead batteries cause it keeps their trucks from entering sleep mode. Thanks!

Glad to be back in a ram from ford! Long time Ram owner! Picked up my new 2025 3500 SRW and after 120 miles saw some purple coolant drips under the passenger front. Took a look and it looked just like hose clamp issue so took it back. Needs a new hose ! No big deal but has to be ordered and...

How are you monitoring the soot% on your 2025? My Idash and CTS3 neither capable of moniroting it quite yet. THey are hoping to get it done by august. Thanks!
