That just makes me sick. hoping you have warrenty, I'd be screaming and I'm sure you are. Are the turbo's failure heat related ?

Considering the extremely complicated emissions system that produces substantion EGT's during a "regen" connected to a "filter" (triggered by back pressure) might contribute to turbo failure. hmmm... and when these engines are in regen then are shut off before it completes or is allowed to cool in park the engine bay and undercarriage remains crazy hot.

If that were the case and you have no warrenty my $0.02 would be to consider a tuner and dpf/doc delete. Just the price of the filter (if they'll take it back) covers the costs and then some, read alot a good about the top 3 for 6.4 (strongly considering it my self, this may have helped make up my mind)

Good luck, keep us posted.
