Translation (multiple choice.):
a) We will not do a "modification" no matter how benign.
b) We don't know jack and don't plan on learning.
c) Get lost...the sign that says "Service Department" has 1 too many words.
d) None of the above. (Fat chance.)
e) All of the above

I even printed out the screen shots to show them. They are not interested in doing it.
called a local Custom Diesel shop. They said they have forscsn and IDS and would look into it and get back to me. That was a week ago on Monday. Called them back this past Monday and they said they haven't had time to look into it yet. I told them I have the screen shots if they want to learn. Have not heard back from them yet. They advertise they are the go to shop for all your Diesel needs including deletes and tuning.

Anyhow, you might shop another dealer next time, eh?

Done, no issues and tech said... piece of cake, do you want any other programming done?
I’m in the truck now with it on. Not sure how much I’ll use this, but while towing along I guess.
Good luck guys

Yeah, my dealer did this with no problem at all. I showed the tech the steps here and it took about 30 seconds. They had IDS hooked up to do a bunch of updates anyway. Any dealer that is too lazy to plug in the IDS and follow a couple of how to steps is just plain lazy and would not get my return business.

Sad. And a really dumb way to run a dealership. There is serious profit in parts and non-warranty work. Service departments should be cultivating long term customers...not chasing the away!

My SIL finally got a chance to bring his work laptop home tonight so he stopped by and it took all of about 5 minutes to get the DPF % to display in the info. It was cold out and his battery was about dead on his laptop but he will bring it again and we are going to see what else is available through IDS. He said they are about to update IDS.
When he first brought the screen up it said 95%. I drove it till it went to 99% then kept driving till it went down to 15%. It never went any lower and had quit the regen cycle. Is this typical?
