Hey guys. I have a DEF issue on my 2019 freightliner cascadia. Dd15. When i got my truck as a second hand, i put premium def into the truck and after a month the supplier didnt have the premium def and i end up using regular def from the bottle, then My truck at first stop consume DEF at quarter tank. So I switch it back to premium def, when I did that I empty out whatever def left inside the tank and put brand new premium def into the tank n fill it 3/4 full, change out def filter, but it still stop consuming at a little over quarter tank. then now even I put in premium def my truck stop consume DEF at half tank. As I drive with the truck not able to consume def it throw out the code for nox sensor and dpf but once I fill it 3/4 full def and drive all the sensor and code shut off. But the problem remain that my truck stop consume DEF at half tank. Please help. Thank you.

Maybe the float's stuck at 1/2 tank but in reality the tank is actually empty? That'd probably throw some NOx conversion faults since there's no DEF there to actually react with the exhaust and catalyst.

Faulty DEF level sensor?

Yes it's going to be the leveling sensor it's on the tank.I had the almost the same problem it will empty the tank with only 800 miles. Change the sensor problem fix!
