    Hello,

    Is there a way to manually turn off automatic High Idle Mode?

    You leave no details.

    If you idle a engine at certain RPM's they generally do well and keep cleaner inside etc.

    High idle mode - what rpms are we talking about??? 1100 rpm???
    What’s outside temperature when it’s doing it?? Does it do it all the time on a idle or occasionally??

    It is happening only when on parking and the engine is working not as good when high idle mode comes up, when I use the cruise controll to increase rpms is fine and the engine works perfectly as well as when the mode is off. Im talking about the one thats turning on and off automaticlly.

    It happends when outside temp. is low, usually under 10 deg. of C.

    I noticed also that fuel consupmtion is going high when high idle turns on, usually jumps up to 2.2 gallons per hour and when high idle is off it goes back to 0.6 gallon. Then also the "vacum" sound comes from the place where the DPF filter is installed.

    Sometimes code shows up for the missing DPF Filter but I know thats coming up because we changed the filter and we didnt go to the dealer to reset the soot level. I will get that done as soon as the truck is back.

    Well the answer is NO. You can not manually turn it off. Unless you do some kind of delete for aftertreatment system. Just curious how much you spend on a new filter??

    Even with a delete it doesn't affect warm up idle. That would be completely custom but why would you want that?. Once the truck is up to temperature the idle goes to normal.

    What he’s truck doing is not a warm up mode. When you starting cold truck and warming it up your rpm stay steady 600 or you might bump it up a hundred. Turbo actuator changes it position to 5% to put a load on a engine. In his case rpms go up to 1100 or even 1400 it’s like a little passive regen cause it doesn’t last as long as regular would.
