def

Hi group. I committed the cardinal sin of putting just 0.9 gallons of DEF in my fuel tank. Long story short, $18K later, I’ve got new injectors, new high pressure pump etc and engine runs great. This is in my 2014 DX3 with the Cummins 8.9 ISL. I forgot to ask mechanic to drain fuel line to the...

Hello all, me and my boyfriend just bought a bus for cheap. 42ft 84 passenger IC R300 manufactured in 08/2007 but branded as a 2008 per usual. We're aware of the whole ordeal with Maxxforces, and we assumed it was a Maxxforce, given the, albeit peeled off, badge on the side. However it has NO...

Hi Everyone - I just joined. I have a 2012 Chevy Duramax shuttle bus. So not exactly a skoolie but in the ballpark? It is having DEF issues and is 33 miles away from being put into limp mode. I am in San Diego and you'd think I could find a shop to work on it. But no. At 26' long it is too big...

I have a 2019 Ram Cummins 3500 SRW with about 75k miles. I've had it in the shop three times for engine code P218F (has to do with flow of DEF). The first time they cleaned the injector. It coded again in less than 25 miles. The second time I took it in for the P218F code they flashed the truck...

Does my rv use DEF? If so how it is mixed? Do you check it like you do oil or am I suppose to get it at the pump. I’ve had it for 12 years and driven over 75000 miles and to my knowledge never added it. My service guy doesn’t think it uses DEF.

Hey all, just gathering some thoughts and stacking logic together. With full blown rookie freightliner status noted, when I started the Detroit yesterday I had smelled a new odor but upon checks noticed nothing out of place with fluids, belts, hoses all the visuals. Once we got moving the odor...

It happened to me today. After throwing a 3363 DEF code, my Freightliner dealer found that the coolant lines to the DEF unit were hooked up in reverse. Yikes! Fixed quickly and for free, thankfully. I remembered seeing a post or two here earlier but figured it had to be rare. On a side note, if...

Hi, noob here. I’ve been lurking and researching and understand that the general recommendation is to look for 2006 and earlier buses, due to the emissions requirements (DPF/DEF fluid) from 2007 on. Since we are also looking for one in the best condition with lowest miles, I’m wondering how much...

Good Day All, Sitting in Wyoming wondering if I should make my 2nd stop on this trip to Freightliner. Question really is a fundamental one of whether I can take my 2018.5 37K Seneca to either Cummins or Freightliner for warranty work? Two days ago Malfunction light comes on Scan gauge shows ID...

I have been having DEF issues in my 2015 etrek. And the Mercedes dealership. after trying many other things, decided to reset the computers on the sensors. Something they did messed up my inverter electricity and The second alternator is no longer charging the batteries when the engine is...

https://www.equipmentworld.com/cummins-recalls-record-500k-trucks-engines-due-to-faulty-emissions-device/ My Palazzo is currently in the shop having the DPF filter changed. While its there I have asked Frieghtliner to check and see if my coach is part of the recall. So far I have not been able...

How many of you have removed your EGR, DEF, and DPF on your diesel trucks? How many miles on the truck before doing it? I did mine a few month ago right at 150,000 miles because it was due for another EGR cleaning and I was getting high exhaust temps due to a failing DPF. I really wanted to...

All - I thought this was a really good winter-time topic: [URL="https://www.aggman.com/winter-fluid-check-health-coolants-lube-oils-def/?utm_source=daily&utm_medium=email&utm_content=12-04-2017&utm_campaign=Aggregates%20Manager&ust_id=34e7781f030af2b972b677d8a64709fb"] Although it's heavy...
