American central transport (lease)

Hope you took it to cummins or at least mhc. I went thru that last year... New egr valve or a few, dpf, new turbo etc... Over $6k out of pocket.

 

What happens when you dont have enough money and your maint. Account doesnt have enough either ?

 

If you don't have a few thousand $$ put away... you should not be leasing. Unless you plan on driving hard first few months with only maybe a day or two off a month.

 

to much work for me.....

 

Well like I said before...it's not for many people and 80-90% of people that are thinking of leasing or that are leasing...shouldn't be.

 

I read somewhere (but now can't find it. . Think I googled manual regen) the reason for multiple failures of the DPF is due to coolant ingestion.

Problem is. . The technicians see the DPF code/failure and just throw parts instead of finding the root cause and repairing that also. Then, just like you're experiencing. . You are right back in the shop.

Get Richie (head of maintenance at ACT) involved. . He was a shop foreman at KW before coming to ACT. Very intelligent and has A LOT of influence monetarily and warranty wise.
