Regen light on

[Kelly O'Laughlin]

I have a 2015 Eco diesel with 130,000 miles .....the check engine is on I have brought for service and was told its the Regen code , garage wasn't a Dealer but a diesel mechanic. He doesn't know what to do , does the Regen system have a life and does it need to be replaced ? If yes what parts and sensors (if there are any) should be replaced . Is this related to poor mileage ? poor acceleration? Can I do the work myself? I have read many articles and forums on the Eco Diesel , I bought initially thinking I could drive it for many more years than a conventional gas engine, now I have my doubts . The truck is high maintenance and expensive to repair , from the experts ......should I hang in with it

If you can get ahold of a code reader, that will better direct you to a solution. Modern vehicles are a lot more sophisticated than before and normally the code will pinpoint you to the correct fix. You can replace the entire emissions system for around 5-8k $ but if it’s just the def injector clogged the code should tell you.
