    2018 Freightliner cascadia. Truck regens but won’t get hot enough. Only codes are for the map sensor. Will that not allow the truck to get hot enough?

    Depending on your location you may need a winter front of ambient temps are too low.

    Incorrect, The new trucks now-a-days have no need for front covers especially when it is sitting in a parking lot doing a regen

    Not sure where your located but when it’s -40 here yes, they do need winterfronts for a proper parked regens and operation while driving.

    Yes you are correct. If it minus 15 outside and colder put a winterfront.

    There is no need of winterfront according to dtna engineers . The life shows if its very cold the truck needs a winterfront.
