How often should my 2012 Cascadia with the DD15 do a Regen?

If you are runnin through a lot of traffic like Chicago ? How often do you need regen or parked regen?

 

I usually did 1 a week but I was OTR so I was rarely in traffic. My original DPF filters lasted to 600k doing that being cleaned only once at 300k.

 

My 2016 cascadia requires manual regen every 700 - 800 kms.
Driving is local / occasionally 30-40 min run on hyway. I dont do idle .
Can you help me figure out what could be the problem?
I bought this truck used at 226k miles odo.. dpf filter was replaced 2020.i feel like the truck isn’t doing passive regen.

QUOTE="snowwy, post: 9516979, member: 30838"]If idle. The engine light will come on at 9 hours. Shut the truck down at 9.50 hours. IIRC.

You'll have to do a regen. Takes 45 minutes.

If idle after that. Plan on 5 hours for the second round. And I think it was close to 90 minutes for the second regen.

Been down that road a few times waiting in Cali for a load out. 12 and 16 models.[/QUOTE]

DPF filters on a Cascadia should be cleaned every 100k miles. How many miles on the truck since you bought it?

 

I have only driven it for a month or so .. 2000 miles nd have done regen 4 times already..when i started using it first.. came amber MIL sign on dashboard( nox outlet sensor not ready after dewpoint enable) but that went away onve i started it driving.)....QUOTE="LoneRanger, post: 12948346, member: 217848"]DPF filters on a Cascadia should be cleaned every 100k miles.

That's way too often. Shouldn't need cleaning sooner than 300K miles or more. Your truck will set a code and turn on the CEL when to do it.

4 regens in 2000 miles and city driving. You might not be driving long enough on the highway to do a passive regen. I’d have it checked out with a scanner and see what’s going on.

It was a once a year maintenance thing for me. One box lasted 700k miles with the original filters. Then again I had a 2013. His 2016 might be different.
