Does your Cummins regenerate once per tank?

Refreshing this old thread.
My truck is now going through a regen every less than 100 miles to no more than 225 miles.
I have had to drain oil out of my crank case twice due to it showing over full. I sent an oil sample to Black Stone and I have as expected excess fuel in my oil. My truck is going in to the local Ram dealer body shop on Monday (I was rear ended) and the shop will check for stored codes. If the “frequent regen” code is stored, the truck will be transferred to the service dept for corrections. If this is not corrected I will be selling the truck.
Have to ask is the truck doing 75% or more city stop & go driving? If so may want to do weekly hwy drive of 1 hr or more along with a fuel additive like Pittsburg Max Mileage FBC or Archoil 6400d followed by their 6500 in every tank. As others stated above ditch Blackstone, your choice of UOA kits is either Fleetguard CC2543 kit or the one from Amsoil they both use the same oil lab and never buy prepaid postage kits as you can pay the postage yourself and save a few $$$, also the kits I listed are cheaper than Blackstone and they include TBN at no extra cost....
