    Too much oil and poor dealer help

    I just had my first regen after the dealer replaced the DPF. 281 miles and just over 7 engine hours. I'm not sure what is normal anymore at this point. I've heard 24 hours? Does anyone know what the computer is looking for before it triggers the CEL? I'm reluctant to call this fixed at this...

    Too much oil and poor dealer help

    I'd like to chime in here to add my experience to this issue. I have a 22 2500 Cummins with the same issues as the OP. I've been having issues since about 8k miles, now I'm at 22k. Frequent regens, around 30-60 miles between regens, some more some less. Throwing P2459 codes and it's also...
