Yup. Sounds just like mine. I hear mine more cuz I have an AFE cold air intake (less muffle to it ). Really sounds ugly if I shut it down during a regen.

Well, i have not had good luck with the updates. Ended up taking mine off.
You can check some of the post on this issue. Seems like most people that have any exhaust upgades are having the most issues. Its good to erase the codes because it will also cause your truck to go into constiant regen.

I never took mine off cuz it's really only a minor inconvenience with the CEL. I do also have the MBRP "cool duals" on it too. That stock air box was showing restrictions whenever I hit it hard. Did it a couple of times B4 I went to the AFE and the filter was clean. I had about 10,000 miles on the truck when I switched. Seems to me that the CEL is the lesser of the 2 evils.
