good when run, but overpriced when fuel system ore SCR fails. A bit exotic SMART injection
-
So I guess its not much of an improvement over cummins in that regard. And paccar hasnt gotten any better at SCR. in the shop 28 times in 2 years over emmisions crap kinda deal?
-
my 2011 has been in the shop once for emmisions
other then getting pm's done when due
much better then the 2010 model
the new 680's have been having issues
not all emission related
just new model related -
many of them here have fooled adblue temperature sensor so it is showing -30C this means frozen adblue and truck continue to drive without problems without power reduction and so on , they put relays complete instalation
but i would not worry about scr reliability this is not problem as long as you have good adblue only except you dont want to waste money on urea -
Basic,i have one but no EGR on it.
SCR system is NOT Paccar build.
Bosch.
Engine,strong and good on fuel.
Not the quickest but i think that you can relate to fuelusage.
Do i like it? YES but will you like it?
I don't know what kind off driver you are.
If you want to be the first up the hill,passing all,then i would say don't buy it.
If you like to think off your bankaccount..........then maybe yes.
They are workhorses,not racehorses.
I wouldn't worry to much about the SCR in your decision to which truck you buy.
Look at a KW,Mack and Volvo's SCR system.
I'm willing to bet that the control box on all 3 will the same shape.(12 inches by 8,8inch high) -
No Dpf either , some guys have all the luck! -
Because off some legal and technical issues,there was a limited series build without any derate system.
Guess which series mine is.
(just dumb luck,happend to buy at the right time)
Sorry Basic for the short hijack off your thread. -
No problem. Good information.
-
correct me if I am wrong but AGCO SISU has the patents on SCR.
