    Hey guys!
    I m back. I have an international prostar with a cummins isx motor and it has been acting wierd with the regens all of a sudden. Just recently it started regening whenever i pulled a heavy load but now it would regen the way it should like a passive regen and after like 200-300 miles it would regen again but with no performance issues. Like my fuel mileage wont drop or anything but i could hear the way it would drive so i could tell that its regening. I have googled alot and asked alot of shops and they say its pretty normal and stuff. What do any of you guys think? The engine just got 300000 miles on it and its 2015 isx.
    Please any guidance would help.
    Thanks

    Have you ever had the filter put in an oven? They're supposed to be baked (or whatever they do to them) every so often or they clog and continuously want to regen.

    Has dpf filter been cleaned? They clog up with ash after cooking all the soot so they need to be taken out and washed out. Some guys literally wash them out at home
     
    Mandeepsingh Thanks this.

    A lender is asking for a ReGen reading on the truck I want to purchase. How hard is that to get done, how expensive is it usually, and what will it tell us?
