That is when you need to hit highway and continue driving it until it no longer shows and cleaning exhaust filter is gone. If you continue to ignore that . Is when eventually you will start having concerns. Because the soot can never get completly burned out. If you do as it says you will be okay.

You know the more I think about this I am just in shock somewhat. If we pay 60 grand for these trucks, if we want to idle forever it should do it. If we want to city forever then it should do it.
I still think everyone here would never of bought these trucks of you thought you could never work in town.
Also the truck can idle for long periods of time. Just needs to be tacked up a little bit but there trucks are certified clean idle.
Anyways for 60 grand it should be fine.
So far it has not returned but I have not been driving for for a few days too.

and I like to say there is the plan, and there is what happens, and occasionally they touch.
the designers DEPEND on the sensors working per specs.. but they don't build them, or certify them or install them. that is a whole nother set of groups of folks. they can be built right, dropped (damaged somehow) and installed..
and now that its damaged the computer program depending on the values gets garbage.. and fun occurs.. for everyone.
so there are now multiple different streams of work to figure out
is this a fluke? or something more significant.. and if significant, how..
and then what to DO about it.. in the customer cars, on the line, on the lots. ... quite a logistical challenge (I call it nightmare!)..

dang right. I would call it a nightmare as well. Someone here hit it on the head though. They don't know how to fix some of the issues pertaining to DEF faults and EGR issues.
All I see is this emission stuff is killing diesels.
My dealer called me and said they have a Raptor in and is speced to my liking. I may just go trade my dually and get that thing not that my 30 foot enclosed is sold. I just love hauling with a diesel when going up into the mountain. That 6.7 doesn't downshift at all but the Raptor has to downshift and work its butt off to get up the mountain. That what makes me love a diesel.

I've helped design and build a lot of computer systems where there is NO WAY to test them. and not many diagnostics.. we recently spent 9 MONTHS looking for whatever killed the system regularly every month (but not on a time cycle or with the same symptoms)..
our customers are none too happy with the 'new system' either.
one setting wrong for the conditions was all it was.. 12 people 9 months to find it. 14 hard failures..
