    I stayed well away from there, you only go there once by choice. Consignee was across the street from theach TA and as soon as I able to I headed for a rest area off 95.

    It only took 6hrs,multiple QC messages and phone calls, but I finally got a DH back to the yard last night

    Turn off main batteries for 20 mins and see if that helps clear the codes long enough to initiate a regen.....certainly can't hurt.

    I know, it was my fault as I wanted to get to a place I could park for the night to do the Regen it was calling for but I didn't anticipate how quickly the engine would derate....or the 1 HR traffic tie up on the cross Bronx.

    Live and learn, I won't ever delay a regeneration request again.

    It's getting to where one needs a degree in computer science to drive a truck anymore...:confused:

    Ya, the guy from Volvo was not a mechanic but more of a tech support position... I could almost hear the pages flipping through the "problem solving" book... or rather PDF.
