    I have the smell of DEF blowing into the cab of my freightliner Coronado through the vent system . What could be the cause? I'm thinking a possible leak but can't find it. Help....

    Check your SCR box for cracks. You blowing any codes? How many miles on the truck? And, have you ever serviced the SCR box and the associated tank and fittings? They need to be removed periodically to be cleaned, inspected and serviced.

    I'm thinking DEF. It has the smell of ammonia.

    No codes showing. Tractor has about 80000 miles on it so the SCR box hasn't been serviced yet.
