If I remember correctly from May of this year that code requires a Dealer Stationary Regeneration, the code is for Diesel Particulate Filter 100% full, you should have received that message on your EVIC along with your "Service Electronic Throttle Control". Sorry. My shop scanner could not turn...
I would love to pile on with this comment, but if you take the time to read the entire settlement, FCA and EPA with CARB did test the 2017 program on vehicles in testing mode and live driving tests. Purchased used vehicles and a few pristine models from FCA. Whether or not they documented the...
I really hate to jump in here but I will attempt to be polite and not piss anyone off. I am a big fan of Valvoline products used them for years in my automobile and trucks until I switched to synthetic, and even then I have found good synthetics in their brand. I am also a big proponent of...
No they do not turn off the EGR, do have EPA/CARB approval, provide the same HP and Torgue gains as well as mileage gains. They do change the turbo profile and offer a regen on demand function. Have multiple options for add on gauges etc.
Banks makes quality products and know what they are doing. No their system does not alter the EGR function, but they do change the turbo function to accomplish some positive effects. The also offer regen on demand function.
Banks Derringer, CARB/EPA approval number. Is a piggyback system with multiple system tie in points. Same HP and Torque gains as others, does not alter ERG function, and have several very nice functions, costs about the same.
Good Luck.

Yes the Volt is a good car, quality, performance, as advertised. The Tesla Model 3 is a leap forward and expects commercial success, and I am glad it fits a part of your driving style. Several years back when CNG was $.40 a gallon I looked into converting my Chevy for fuel cost savings and...
Don't know what electric vehicle you are charging. The Chevy Volt is advertised as using a wall socket for quick charging, yet reading the fine print that is a 12 hour recharge to get a maximum 50 mile range, a Level 2 charger, considerable larger cost yet faster charge, requires 32 to 50amps...
At present time the charge time is more like 14hrs+, however the hydrogen technology will be the savior and hopefully will develop fast enough that battery will not be considered. The environmental impact of mining and disposal of Lithium Ion batteries is far worse than hydrocarbon fuels. As...
Several points.
1. Cummins EGR doesn't dirty the engine as much as FCA.
2. With SCR NOX catalyst actually EGR not necessary.
3. Banks Derringer has a CARB/EPA approval, although it does not turn the EGR off.
4. EPA attempted to make it illegal to convert any road vehicle to race use a couple of...
Well, this whole mess starts with the EPA. The Mandated EGR solved a problem 30 years ago, today creates more problems than it solves. The scientific evidence is present that with current SCR converters that NOX reduction does not need EGR. EPA claims that it uses only scientific based solutions...
Tune and drive, enjoy. Even with warranty coverage, good oil, appropriate oil change cycle, Oil analysis at oil change, is called for.
Yes your driving style will affect your issues with the engine.
Now I will state that ALL DEF/SCR/DPF diesel engines are suffering from Daily Driver style of...
Just because IT said we can do it does it really need to be done?
I still reach for column shifter after almost three years. My neighbors 2500 has column shifter, I find excuses to help him in projects where I can drive his truck, shhh, don't tell him.
HaaaHaa! Small number of complaints. That is because most of us owners went another way. My wife called and filed a complaint, I did not. I fixed the issue with both eco's by tune. If FCA issues a fix for the AEM fix I will not participate. I already have a satisfactory resolution and am out no...
My next door neighbor purchased a 2017 new and stated that there was an option for air ride on his 2500 crew cab, $4500, so he did not opt in. After his first trip with his Toy Hauler RV, to Colorado, he purchased rear assist bags with on board compressor and in cab controls, uses to level out...
My 2014 Laramie Longhorn Limited started early this year with the intermittent cruise not functioning or quitting mid trip. Replaced pad on steering wheel with improved performance until two weeks ago, turning off mid trip and not being able to turn back on, not turning on at all, or working...
If they fix the fix I don't really care. I took FCA money and tuned both my eco's and got all my original performance back and better fuel mileage. End of Story, well maybe not, will be ordering ERG delete and storing it in garage until we spring a leak. Researching after market SCR and DPF...
My first trip with our new Toy Hauler RV, 25ft. Salem FSX, 28ft at tongue we wiggled and wiggled, tongue was too high. The dealer had set the Equalizer hitch upon picking up the RV. Our air systems need a few minutes to completely react. When you first hook up to the trailer the truck...
