    Automatic Regen too often

    It seemed excessive and never was a problem on previous trips. It was nice however not to have a check engine light come on.....yet at least.

    Automatic Regen too often

    Mileage wasn't bad as far as diesel itself. Truck wasn't towing or loaded down, si that was just over 18mpg average. I would imagine running highway the whole time it wouldn't have clogged up or regened as often. As far as def goes, before the trip it was filled up to the top with jugs and...

    Yeah, I wasn't towing, and averaged between 75 and 80 mph.

    Automatic Regen too often

    I ended up giving architectural a shot after the install of my third set of injectors and another new dpf. While the check engine light seems to remain off, and I'm not seeing it go into regen near as often, I seem to be burning a lot of DEF. I recently drove it from my place in southern...

    Automatic Regen too often

    I'm just worried it's going to fall out of warranty. All these test drives add up.

    Automatic Regen too often

    Update on my truck. After replacing several seals including the crank case, the truck would still go into regen far too often. It's getting a new dpf (again....I think its the third....but would have to check). Part of me is hoping it doesn't "fix" the issue, as I feel a new dpf will just...

    Automatic Regen too often

    Would any of you Did he specifically reference part shortages due to a specific reason? It seems even trucks prior the "pandemic" caused shortages have similar issues to the current 22 and up trucks. I'm wondering if stellantis just decided to start cutting corners to increase profits and...

    I have a feeling this sort of story is going to become more commen as trucks get up in mileage.

    Automatic Regen too often

    Reminds me of asking for a tire rotation last time. It was in the return notes, but the tires were exactly where they were when I dropped the truck off. Verified by marks and the variance in pressure front and rear. Your truck is doing the exact same thing as mine. Yesterday they found the...

    Automatic Regen too often

    I understand the legal context. is is, however, unfortunate. This sort of thing from a third party (ram) only hurts their brand....especially when they plaster cummins on the side of the trucks as a sales point.

    Has anyone reached out directly to cummins on this issue to gather their take?

    Automatic Regen too often

    I would think that anytime there is something that they diagnose, that could contaminate oil, they should be replacing it anyhow. Unfortunately, your truck sounds like mine with the regen cycles. Just today I drove in to pickup my truck and was told that they "finally saw what I was talking...

    Automatic Regen too often

    Well looks like I'm getting the truck back tomorrow. Their new answer is a $7 intake seal. Can't make this sort of thing up. Replace cheap parts and give it back. Stellantis and their entire dealer network are useless. I have lost all faith.

    Automatic Regen too often

    Good question. I'll look into that if I end up going down that path.

    Automatic Regen too often

    Based on age, mileage and depreciation from purchase price....I don't really know if it's worth it. Plus, I don't really want them buying it back and just selling it off to an unsuspecting person.

    Automatic Regen too often

    This is what I have heard about all newer HD trucks.... just want what I bought to work, don't really want a hd gasser.

    Automatic Regen too often

    Sadly, with the dilution I experienced, I wouldn't be surprised if the motor itself is now fried. "Fixing it" would probably just buy me time until it implodes

    Automatic Regen too often

    Well my truck went in again for frequent Regens. The dealership had to change the oild under warranty last go around thanks to injectors leaking diesel into the oil. That said, I am now being asked about my fuel filter replacement, as though I don't keep logs or it is somehow my fault. I am...

    Automatic Regen too often

    I'll ask when I go in late next week. That said, everytime I ask a question I get the "our technicians will have to diagnose it with Stellantis, I don't want to lead them. Also, when was the last time you changed the oil and filters? You probably aren't driving it hard enough". Then they swap a...
