Can't you just thaw & dry out the filter? The snow came in through the fender?

That's the only thing 'serviced'? Either you have giant windshield washer fluid tank or was out for a while haha.

troy read manual, said to continue driving normal. 

about 30 minutes of 80% max power till a regen complete message appeared the full power resumed.

I know it's a different animal, but my bus used to do that. Dropped it to a lower gear one day a week to keep it blown/burnt/cleaned out. Never have me a loss in power so it could regen.

im confused- reading most complaints the DPF gets full from people driving there trucks too easy, not enough heat, load or RPM.  they get responses like: stop driving it like a car, put some load on it, drop a gear and get the EGTs up


My truck gets worked pretty good, i dont see how hawging through the PA mountains at 28K lbs is driving it too easy

weird
