Hey Paul, have the dealer check the pressure differential sensor. It could be faulty and misreading the level of backpressure between the front and rear of the DPF. The Pressure Differential Sensor calculates carbon saturation levels. The DPF could be fine but the sensor is reporting excess carbon and preventing a regeneration cycle.
About a month ago I threw in the towel on my diesel pick up. It got to the point where I had to wait days on end just for a diesel tech to be available to see the truck then was placed on a back order for an egr 3 months. Luckily for me gassers can do everything I need and I will never again own another diesel. If your out of warranty and own a diesel most people would go broke at the sight of a check engine light.
Its unfortunate. Diesels were always more simple and more reliable than a gas motor but thats no longer true. Gas engines are now more reliable due to emissions. If you really need to tow heavy all the time you just gotta either bite the bullet and be ready to spend tons on repairs and have downtime or buy an older truck and restore it. Either way its not worth it
I had a 2020 Laramie and that was the holy grail for me. Zero issues, had features that some 2021's lost, and Ram covered the CP3 pump swap free of charge
Had the same issue dealer tried to manually regen the truck wouldn’t fix it they reflashed the ecu didn’t fix ended up being a bad dog filter now I’m waiting because it’s on back order 22 ram bighorn mega cab
Just got my 2022 2500 out the shop yesterday for a full DEF filter with no warning. Dealer is waiting on a recall DEF sensor along with 2 other recalls but they cant get the parts. After leaving the dealer yesterday my truck did a regeneration with another regen this morning. No dealer can tell me the true process of what to do when my truck starts a regeneration; as of yesterday my truck said regeneration in progress continue driving. Now it just says regeneration in progress, not continue driving. I dont know.
I have a 2020 Cummins 3500 shingle shingle rear wheel. Just had the CP4 replace today under the recall, back to CP3. I have a bank's data monster that tells me when Regeneration is going to happen. I never shut the truck off until the process is over. I've never had a problem with DPf filter.
Experiencing the same issues with a 22. Currently have 60k (52k towing) and 200 idle hours/ 1176 drive hours and well maintained. Dpf was replaced at 35k and I depend on this truck for work. Going back to ford
I would not label all MY2022 are issues. There are tens of thousands of them out there that do not have an issue. Diesel emissions has come a long ways when it was introduced in late 2000’s, but can be an isssue early on before racking a couple hundred thousand miles. It sucks if it happens.
Did you have any boost? You were gonna show it then it threw that alert. My ‘21 was having some issues with not spooling. Just wondering if its a DPF issue
Mine did this about two weeks ago at 70k miles. Exact same. See dealer power reduced blah blah. 50% DPF and Check engine light. But I gunned it, and it went into regen mode, it cleared the see dealer message. And haven’t had an issue since. Fingers crossed :/

Hey Paul thanks for the video. Do you know by chance if the drivers of your trucks are shutting it off when it high idles itself? I've read on a few forums that it plugs the def when you shut the truck off when it is regening itself
Two out of the three trucks I've driven have not had plug def filters! Other drivers have gotten those trucks and have had problems with the def. My thoughts are that's the only thing I do that is different is if the truck High idles itself I wait until it idles down
I have researched both 2021 and 2022 6.7 Cummins and I can not find anything different they changed between the two. If there is no change, how is 2021 the holy grail. I’m just curious.
Drive idle does not plug up any worse than driving loaded, it still burns fuel and generates soot. Idle hours not displayed by the date, it shows total hours for idling and driving
@@repairvehicle DRIVER. As in Is the driver idling all night so the exhaust and engine is not hot enough to burn anything off. I don't know what you a referencing.
@@repairvehicle That's not true at all. At idle or low load, the EGTs are lower, creating more soot. But at higher RPM and higher engine loads, it reduces the soot buildup, even creating enough EGTs for passive regeneration.
Have you deleted any of your 4th or 5th gen trucks? I know it’s frowned upon but it’s aggravating for someone like me who would like a diesel pickup and won’t use it all the time but still would like to have a reliable truck.

Doubt that fixes it either unless it was sucking air
They should have never added these emissions systems
The dpf on my 22 only starts to fill up when towing. Unloaded the gauge never moved off empty.
It should move because soot is generated every time engine is running

When don’t allow complete regen done
So if your almost home and the regen starts what do you do ? Drive around till its done ?
