Everyone...a quick question. I am a tad bit under 50,000miles on a 2010 F250 and normally get about 400 miles between cleaning intervals. I am now down to about 170 miles between cleanings. Driving is interstate highways with cruise control at about 75MPH...just developed the issue within the last month where all of that interstate driving has been noted.

Is that normal...just wondering.

Thanks,
RC

 

Difference in fuel, like bio?

I have almost 40K on mine now and running 350~400miles between completed regens. If I interrupt the regens, the next regen starts approx 10miles for every mile driven in regen. Still getting 14mpg+.

 

170 sounds pretty good to me, I never got close to that. Did you happen to have the truck in the ford shop lately. If they flashed it with the 11b23 program which I think is the latest version, I think that was to cause more frequent cleaning. Also, are you certain you were catching them all when getting 400. That message is not on long, it was very easy to miss.

 

I get 150 miles tops, when going faster it is closer to 100 miles apart. The worst I have seen so far is 65 miles apart.

 

Medic 66 never mentioned if his 170 mile regens were running empty or hauling. I can't imagine getting regens around 170 milers apart while drfiving empty is anywhere near normal.

 

It's been about 15,000 miles since my last regen. Then about 20,000 before that. LMAO!

 

Sorry for the long delay. Laptop crapped out.

No bio fuel...fillups at all the regular local areas that I always visit. Trips have been running when empty. No visits to the shop and no flashing has occured.

But in the last week the symptoms have dispersed it seems and I am now up to 259 miles since the last cleaning and still going so more monitoring is in order I guess.

Thanks everyone for posting to my question!!

 

Is this while towing?

 

Yes, I have a 6x12 flatbed trailer with the Ranger 800XP on the back, I have never weighed everything but I would guess less then 3000 lbs. Regens are 65-100 when towing, closer together when going 80 mph.

When not towing that around the farthest I can go is 160 miles apart. That is all highway driving, I never track it in town since sometimes they don't get to finish so I only watch it when I am out on the open road.
