    What would cause my DEF mileage to start dropping? Could a bad one box be doing it? I have a 2013 Cascadia with a 2012 dd15 in it. ANY help would be appreciated!

    The metering can be adjusted. Have it flow checked. Had a few that dropped all of a sudden from 250mpg to 180mpg.

    Ya good luck on finding someone have reputable to it. The EPA starting cracking down and given out HUGE fines to companies doing it. If ya do find someone you can trust. PM it to me.
