Did you clean the MAF sensor also? The MAF reads the air flow and reports back to the ECM to control fuel rate. They (the sensors) are all connected to each other and the ECM.
Being yours is a 19’ you may never have an issue with the filter. Then again if you change back to the ab filter, the MAF may have to relearn the air flow characteristics of the different filter. Idk
My 19 came with a AB. There was that brief period of time when the AA was a acceptable filter and the AB was hard to come by. When time was up on the factory installed AB that’s when I installed the AA. It’s still installed and never had a issue. It’s been my theory all along it’s a software issue, not a hardware issue. Why mainly the 22’s when mostly everything else is identical? We shall see.
I agree with you on that. And mostly the mid to late 22’s. I ran an AA filter in my 2018 with zero issues and some with early 22 models aren’t having any issues. I found a Z87 recall for defective ECM’s that came out on 8/25/2022 but I can’t find which manufacturing dates are involved. I didn’t buy my truck until May of 2023 but it was built in June of 2022.
Fingers crossed for you.
Good luck and keep us updated on your progress. I hope they use the upgraded one.
It will fall under the 50k emission warranty or 5yr/100k mile engine warranty if it’s hard parts. 22 ecm have been cracked FYI.

There was never a period when the AA filter was acceptable for the 2019+ diesels. That was an error within the Mopar parts network that Ram subsequently fixed by adding a notation to their system, as well as mailing out notices to service centers. The unfortunate thing was, many dealers didn’t really take note of the correction in the same manner that some dealers didn’t act on the K1 snap ring failure TSB’s and RSU’s when they were directed to.
I hope you’ve been changing your engine oil more frequently. 16,000 miles of frequent regeneration can have a devastating effect on the engine oil. Fuel dilution usually goes way up.
Or the upgraded locking 44” dipstick and tube or the Y43 recall or……
Well the 44” locking dipstick is being handled under a very poorly communicated Customer Satisfaction campaign. But you can get the 15” one replaced with the 44” one under that CSN.
Actually that is how I know when to change my oil. Hours, miles or number of regens.
At least you’re aware of this. I shudder to think how many people are out there blissfully ignorant to the fact that their truck is regenerating every 100 miles for 15,000 miles. The ones use Rotella oil, and who blindly follow the oil life monitor and pay no mind to the DPF gauge. I’m sure that’s doing a real number on their rotating assemblies and valve train.
Fuel is a major factor in these systems. I never would have believed that until I experienced it first hand. I’m currently at 870 miles and 22 engine hours since the last regen cycle finished. On track for the second 24 hour regeneration in a row which is a major improvement over where I was prior.
