I think I found AlfaOBD on the PC, I'll see if a link & post it, ALFA seems to be the app of choice for the ECODIESEL. The CTS 3 does not support a forced regen that I've been able to find, it will give you soot mass and regen status, several exhaust temps, , engine oil temp & pressure, coolant...
Alphaobd is a phone , tablet or pc app that will give you the ability to do a plethora of things on your ram, obd scantool, the ability to turn on options & change some parameters of some modes of operation, such as fog light operation etc, and can allow you to force a stationary regen to help...
Putting it back on would totally defeat the purpose of tuning. I used to love the smell of some diesels BUT after working on Locomotives for 10 years not so much anymore, they could fill a large shop with thick smoke in just a couple of minutes.
I filled up about 3 weeks ago, maybe a month & always hand calculate my mileage, that particular fill-up I netted 43.6 MPG, I don't know how, the only thing I can figure is that I somehow missed resetting the trip odometer, prior to the the best I had ever achieved was 28.6 something, & that was...
I'll disagree on pipe size, airflow is critical to overall performance, it has to do with volumetric efficiency. I've always loved the sound of an inline CUMMINS OR MACK on straight pipes, each has it's own distinct "tone", I've heard some people say that an eco on straights don't get much...
I also opted for SFT, when I tuned my truck GDE was still out from the EPA shutdown. I went with a stage 1 with the rally trans tune, I love it, the regen status has been cut in half or theresbouts, I'm seeing a slight increase in fuel mileage, but under my current circumstances I can't drive...
I'm assuming the bluedriver is an OBD2 reader? What app are you monitoring with, I used a scangauge2 and programmed it for soot mass & REGEN status, those will be the most important IMO, but there is one exhaust temp that may help, I think it is SCR temp. My 2017 doesn't display any After...
I have stage 1 Sofaking tuning in my rig and it's great, I don't know about fuel mileage yet but has definitely slowed down regens. OP, you mentioned Edge tuners in your original post, Edge doesn't make tuners for the ECO, but I highly recommend an EDGE CTS 2 or 3 with the tunes so you can...
I got my letter in the mail today, the letter says failure to have the recall completed can equate to improper maintenance or something similar, so I guess I'll make an appointment & take her in. Hope it it doesn't turn into a pain in the arse, my wife is going through some cancer treatments...
