Thanks - I wondered. So they do have the active regen systems like other diesels, using fuel to heat things up, so to speak.We have active regen. Burns extra fuel to heat the dpf. I dont know if it's direct injection into the exhaust or just post combustion injection to send fuel down the exhaust to heat it. If your Intune with your truck you will notice when It happens. You will see a drop of a few mpg for 20 Min or so. One way to tell Is if you are coasting and watch the mpg meter you will notice that it will struggle to hit over 90 mpg while coasting. Keep an eye out and you will see it. And smell a different smell if you shut it off when it's doing its thing.
We also have passive regen while on the highway itll burn off if things get hot enough.
