dealer wants $2200.00 to replace particulate filter
#61
I still have powertrain warranty. And my code reader is saying P2002 Particulate trap efficency below threshold bank 1. They say it "may" be under warranty. I heard if you have an after market intake they will void that right away. They want me to take it in and charge me for diagnosing the problem.
Any sugestions?

yes it will. sooner or later it will plug up but that has nothing to do with it being cracked.
the onlt thing a cracked dpf does is blow more soot.
now sooner or later all dpfs will go bad from either face pluging or just ash load. this is normal and the unit would have to be replaced. this will also come at the expense of more regen cycles.

I never believed it, but what happens, is that oil can get through, but smoke can't.
So, if your turbo or something else is leaking, it can make it past the DPF, or even burn off the back side of the DPF, smoking. \
He said this is what happens to lots of DPF's, they get replaced, but only the symptom was fixed- not the problem.

I was told by a guy that works at ford, that a perfectly good DPF CAN IN FACT have black smoke out the exhaust.
