    Great video. The DEF message pop up beginning of December, got it the injector off and cleaned it like you did ( wasn’t near as clog as yours ) cleaned everything real nice, cleared the code and all was fine for a week, then the message did pop-up again, I decided that I wouldn’t toy with that again, so I got the DEF deleted, all of the muffler component is still there, Let me tell you, it is not the same truck anymore, way more power and it respond faster. I love it even more now. Thank you.

      @@treyjuice422 went to a guy near montreal but i dont think it will pass the smog test because all the components to reduce smog are gone. We dont need to pass smog test here in quebec, (for now anyways).

    July 3 3:15 Georgia time. Just had this happen this morning on my 2021 2500. Watched video , pulled mine apart and that’s exactly what it was. Saved me a lot of money. Thanks so much great video!💪💪

    I removed and cleaned my DEF injector at 51k miles. I was surprised how plugged up it was. One hour of preventive maintenance can save you being in the Limp Mode on the hi way somewhere. Nice video. 👍

    Great video, just a heads up all DEF is the same. It is 67.5% water and 32.5% urea. The platinum is only 32.57% more urea and does the exact same job is the “cheap” DEF. The best hung you can do is make user the date code on the DEF new and use that.

    Good Video man. Appreciate it. Mines a 2021 3500 with only 34k on it…It’s being fixed by dealer for this issue. Getting it back tomorrow, but will be my problem in the future and thanks to this simple well laid out video, I will tackle the issue again in a couple years. Thanks again!

    To clean the DPF filter opening, use a acid brush with hot water and all DEF crystals will dissolve. End of problem.

    Well i jusy bought a new 2023 3500 and did a whole walk through with Tech he said the best way to keep that from happen dont wait for light to come on to add DEF its good add at half and try to buy the fresh as much as possible and some other person on here said there is a Additive you can use

    If you have ever bought Walmart house paint you will learn a good lesson about going cheap. I bought the Platinum from day one. I only have 16k miles so TBD on this. Great video. Keep them coming.

    To remove the def line push down on the down on the line then push on clip that holds the line onto the injector... Less chances on snapping the clip.. Since everything is made out of plastic now a days...

    I HATE THIS DEF CRAP !!! I HAVE A 2014 WITH 275K MILES !
    I put a new Transmission in it
    I havent had any engine problems
    I havent had any fuel system problems
    No oil problems
    No coolant problems
    BUT DEF still having same problems . I feel like they did this just to cost you more money. Im thinking about trading it in for a 2012 manual Just to stay away from DEF PROBLEMS . From what i learn owning nothing but DODGE TRUCKS . STEERING BOX IS TRASH
    DEF SUCKS AND THE ENTIRE SUSPENSION COULD BE WAY BETTER FOR WHAT YOU PAY !! FORD fixed the issues they had . So why in the hell hasnt RAM done the same .
    I had a 97 5.9 I put 500k miles on it and never had any problems .

      Thanks. Unfortunately yes. It worked fine for about a week then eventually I got a message saying the DPF was near full and to see dealer. I’ve sent it to the dealer but have gotten a diagnosis yet.
