The ECM is programmed to do a regen burn every 500 miles regardless of DPF soot load %. My understanding is this is done to prevent coughing the DPF unnecessarily, though it is highly annoying to watch out do a regen burn when you're towing a trailer and your DPF soot load has been sitting at 0% for the last 700 miles. Even when not towing, mine will sit at 0% until it gets to about 450 miles since the last burn, then it will start to climb in ~5% increments until if gets to ~25-70%, I guess to make you think it really needs to do a burn. Interesting the highest my banks iDash has ever showed DPF % is ~25%, and usually much less than that.
Also, not sure if they changed it but up until MY23 trucks at least, the DPF soot load % displayed on the dash was always double what it actually was. Not sure why, but somebody somewhere thought it was a good idea.

My iDash SL PID has recently been matching my truck SL PID. Truck's at 90% and at about 400 miles out. iDash went over 100%. I used to see the iDash SL go to high 130s/low 140s. It's all over the place.

it would require pcm changes too, so i would highly doubt it. I will say 2 things on my 2024. First, you dont even know it's happening unless you have the diesel info screen up. In my 2016, you could feel a slight shudder when regen started. And second, the regen is like 5 or 10 minutes at most.
Dave, just sell the 2016 and get into a new one. You know you want too....
just make a few more arrests to get your commission up!!!

Never will sell the 16. You see me with a brand new truck, it's either my kid's I helped buy or a second one...
