    for some reason I was thinking there was a hole in the bottom of the onebox.

    Something can burn a hole in the DPF filter, certain fuel additives? The emissions warranty is a separate warranty and is rather fickle.

    If it is covered by the warranty they (FL) should reimburse you for the tow and cover a hotel room, i think....
