    Ok so I've searched more than just this forum and haven't come up with alot. I got put into this 2010 KW T700 by my company. And they aren't shy about repairs at all it's just the shops can never seem to fix it. As much info as I've found it sounds like an ECM issue. It's seeming like the truck is not regening the DPF while driving down the highway. The truck is requiring a parked Regen every night. And it's also getting 4 mpg at some points when I use to get 8.4. If anyone has any ideas from similar experiences it would be much appreciated.

    Does your truck have the option to do a manual regeneration?

    get your computer checked. It might be in a setting.

    Just going off what is in the training video.

    All these new engines and the new requirements I am totally new on. SO I am scouring the net for information on them.

    #### have these things come along ways from a 3406A....:eek:

    No idling actually the most idling it sees is backing in to a dock or a parking spot. I'm OTR this truck has a bunk heater and a cooler and works really well so if she's sitting she's off
