DPF Cleaning costs..can someone help with a cost effective place?

Yeah. You were looking at one of their rebuilds weren't you?

 

Couple of them— both 6NZ’s that didn’t take DEF

 

When we had ours baked at 250K the Pocatello Kenworth shop took it out and we ran it to the bake shop in Idaho Falls because we were on a tight schedule.

wasn’t very expensive and got us down the road for another 250 K.

I also had very good service from the Heyburn Kenworth shop, and they have access to aftermarket DPF’s.

 

Good deal— you get a Uber to take you up the road a couple miles to Fat Clarence’s — tell CR to go F himself for me if you do— he’ll understand

 

There’s this shop in Funtucky(Fontana) Commiefornia, that uses a solution he calls “The Dip”, cleans it better than baking it. $250.00.

 

At least it was under warranty. You may want to look at using Max Mileage since you idle a lot. Might prevent it from happening again.

 

The Volvo has a 7th injector that is a sensor that if it is not working will do just what happened to yours. The idling is a killer based off everything I have read but I have only read mainly about the D13 on Volvo.
I am glad I have a great relationship with my dealer. They will work with any other shop if I am down to help get me going. Also they are one of the bigger shops in the USA for Volvo. Never have to wait to get in if I need in right away and take care of me every time. I will never own any other kind of truck as long as I live in that area.
