In -30C weather, you can tell if you’re in a regen by the white fog cloud spewing from the exhaust pipe while driving down the highway. Fuel mileage screen can give you a hint as well but I know you know that. (Putting it out there for those that don’t know)

1,000 miles on mine and just had a regen. I am not sure how many I have had prior. Only reason I knew this time was enabling the DPF%. This allowed me to see the regen happening and I was able to keep driving. Makes me wonder how many I interrupted prior.

It's been my experience that unless running a bluetooth OBD-II reader, the only way to confidently know if the truck is in regen, is to monitor the "Instant MPG". If in regen, the instant MPG will drop significantly.

Rather than enabling the DPF% screen and watching it go down? Im pretty confident that when that percent is dtopping, its in regen.

Very true. When I get a chance, i am going to ask the dealer to turn that screen on for me. Not apprehensive to turn it on myself, just don't trust the warranty side of Ford jumping in to the mix should I need to take the truck in for anything. I would love to have the DPF % screen active, but for now, I rely on the Instant MPG screen.

I looked on mine. Not enabled. I'll stay old school for the time being ;-)
