[@chrisryan5668]

Your DPF is so clogged it won’t even run at this point. It’s clearly been an ongoing thing the whole trip but it’s went long enough at this point it’s totally choked out. I would start by removing the tuner and try unbolting the exhaust to limp it where you need to go. It should be able to breathe then. As far as fixing it, you’ll probably need to replace or “discard” that DPF since it’s gotten to this point. To me it seems like you may have a boost leak or something with the tuner that is causing the excessive soot buildup. I see this happen all the time on these trucks in stock form when the engine air filters are totally stopped up.

[@cory9088]

Josh there was a Recall from GM on some of the l5ps. It was a software update to increase the Regen Frequency. If you didn't get a recall I would visit your local dealer and have them check to make sure the ECM has the latest and greatest calibration installed. Also some had some injector problems that lead to the DPF plugging like yours is. If you still have issues after you had everything cleaned you may want to check into injectors. On a more positive note it looked like a fun road trip. I would love to do something like that.

[@mondo9.2.5]

[@mattt1982]

That's exactly what I did on my 16' denali. Was throwing a nox sensor code with the CEL and was trying to regen constantly. Said f it and let some parts fall off (completely on their own, of course). Couldnt be happier. I'm already converted to cp3 so losing my remaining warranty wasn't a big worry to me.

My 2021 Chevy LM2 started having various DPF issues after around 16 months of ownership. Mileage countdowns to limp mode to check engine light. Drove almost 4 thousand miles round trip to California and back home. The dealership has replaced all the sensors and erg under warranty. It's now in for a leaking gasket. The best tip I can give is to unplug the negative battery port and leave it out of an hour or so, maybe overnight if possible, then plug it back in. Resets the computer. I'm waiting on the dpf delete tuner system to come to the market.

[@kzim808]

[@Springfield-1903]

Bunch of comments about deleting 🙄... That's not the problem right now. Right now the problem is the "upgrades" not playing nice with the emissions equipment. The white smoke is normally OK but not in that quantity. I think your tuner has a bug in it. It's making the ECU think that the DPF is clean when it's really not. That or your differential pressure sensors are bad and sending the wrong signals to the ECU. I hope you get it figured out soon! Sorry this happened to you so far from home 🏡 😢 Prayers brother.

[@evanch123456]

Could not agree more. Take that tuner off Josh!

[@repairvehicle]

White smoke is coolant, blown head gasket

[@sg255010]

@@repairvehicle he said nothing about his coolant temps. I agree with you about white smoke but that's not it at all.

[@Springfield-1903]

@@repairvehicle Not always but very possible. Let's hope that for Josh's sake that it's not. If his truck weren't throwing all those DPF related fault codes at him the entire drive then I'd agree with you. The way the DPF works is when the upstream (before the DPF) and downstream (after the DPF) pressures are significantly different (differential pressure) it'll trigger the truck the go into DPF regeneration. During regeneration raw diesel fuel is injected directly into the DPF and exhaust gas tempos are raised to approximately 1,200 degrees which will effectively incinerate all the captured soot and convert it to ash. That's the entire purpose of the diesel particulate filter. That's why even a brand new duramax, Cummins or powerstroke will occasionally blow white smoke when they're in regen. The fact that he was blowing so much white smoke is because he's probably completely clogged his DPF. Evidence to support this is that his turbo can't even push exhaust through the intake because the engine is literally choking on its own exhaust. As a side note... the DEF is injected into the SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) chamber which is physically after the DPF chamber. If he was having a problem with the DEF fluid or otherwise having an SCR issue the truck would throw different codes at him.

[@nicholaswiltse9022]

As for tow/haul mode, I run around with it on at all times, the shift points are way better, holds gears longer to let the engine work, and it locks the torque converter in 2nd gear instead of at 55mph which takes a lot of heat and out of the converter and reduces wear. And in my case, with having 37’s and stock gears (4.56’s are on the way) it makes a world of difference holding lower gears longer; 6th gear is so overdriven with 3.73’s snd 37’s that it’s unusable. So it actually helps my fuel economy because the engine is up in its power band and holding 12 pounds of boost, so the engine load is 20-30% doing 80 in 5th instead of 40-60% in 6th

The wire had cut open and it was green that's where it was shorting and not giving signal.. now it runs great. .but with the videos u do I learned what I know about this truck.. I know you'll get this girl back on the road.. and thank you for the video..

Them l5p must be bad for emission issues my co worker has a 17 duramax that is having a lot of the similar problems. It's just so annoying that the factory spends 1000s on putting on those parts so we have to spend 1000s to get rid of them so we can actually go somewhere without worrying that were not gonna get there.🤯

[@TruckMaster]

You are exactly correct

[@justinperry4587]

Josh, I had similar issues in my LML. What Chevy told me direct is my Cat was clogged and needed replaced. I had seen a service bulletin out about the 9th injector not working properly in these Duramax’s and were covered under that specific bulletins warranty, but Chevy said they would not replace until I replaced my clogged Cat. Hope this helps some buddy!

[@repairvehicle]

There’s no 9th injectors on this year’s

[@justinperry4587]

@@repairvehicle good to know! I thought maybe they did since he had that “injector” code come in early.

Just give it the “Weight reduction” exhaust

[@MrStaybrown]

These new diesels have so much torque and HP I wouldn't add a tuner, in the past yes..nowadays no.

My prayers are coming out to you and your brother be safe and good luck!

The mighty F250/350 Powerstroke........ get one!

If I were a gambling man I'd say that edge pulsar was the culprit

[@TruckMaster]

It might be

Anyway to pull it while on the trip and go back to normal just for the trip.

[@benbellino3596]

It’s almost like tuning your truck results in long-term reliability issues in exchange for short-term performance gains. 🤔 Who would’ve thought?

[@asianpersuasion1807]

Such a nice truck to have such a hard time

[@Mebob2001]

DPF is Plugged Solid i dare say, the MAF sensor code was a warning to that issue, also could be plugged because of the MAF sensor, thats partly why i say emissions equipt trucks keep the STOCK air filters and Box. u mess with that mAF reading at all, it will mess with the missions systems over the long run.

[@cesare8020]

This almost smells like a fuel rail issue. They have a big problem with the pass side rail and connector having issues. If you watch your rail pressures. Fuel rail pressure 1+2 should be near thier desired. Any deviation by more than a couple hundred psi.. there's an issue. Also they have injector and injector connector issues. Also the fact you threw a mass air flow code makes me think you might have an issue there or you have a boost leak somewhere. The other big issue they have issue the def injector getting clogged and causing regens to be a massive pita. Im a gm tech by trade. If you want to work with me directly. Hit me up.

Need to retitle the video my government left me stranded 20 hours from home

[@t.l.robinson2162]

Delete it but, do NOT put it on your channel.

[@holsteinsanddiesels7758]

Second that motion. Don’t put it out there, nobody knows.

[@isaacwais9810]

They can’t really do much to you at all for a delete unless you have DOT numbers multiple KZbinrs have gotten away with it

[@caleblevasseur2657]

I agree

[@markbremmer8642]

Need to know. They don't need to know.

[@douglasworkman2788]

Thats why you should of check complaints on the dura max, my dad went thru same crap, 90 thousand dallars of junk, 100s complaints online

[@countcuda70]

They all have the same emission issues. This epa crap is garbage

[@cobralife0417]

It's a little hard giving this video a thumbs up considering how it ended. That sucks!

[@Kennethlewis1972]

I have the same problem with my diesel particular filter. The dealer says Chevy is aware that it is an issue at high elevation and when towing

[@803_l5p]

Time for a “permanent fix”

[@bat__bat]

Hey it's good shit you're able to give the trucks away. It ties the channel together nicely.

[@ffmed6495]

Definitely scaring me off from going to a diesel.

[@Calebflying2025]

This is at extremely high elevation, and at the IKE gaunlet. 95% of people are not putting the truck at these extremes.

[@Double_deuce22]

I have a 2017 Ram 3500 Cummins with the Edge Juice. I live in Colorado and we travel on I-70 up and down the mountains. With my Cummins it will sometimes defuel me and the torque management will kick in when I am hauling our 16k lb fifth wheel toy hauler. It only happens every now and then when I am on level 3 or higher. Yes, I only use level 4,5, or 6 for very short bursts. Then again that is even a bad idea. But hey it’s my truck.

[@repairvehicle]

It’s your tune, it keeps truck running reach and generating more soot. Tune is a death to the engine. Manufacturers spend millions on testing making sure everything works fine. Tuning software companies spend no money on testing, you just get unreliable power and problems later. With factory software truck is happy and regeneration happens automatically on highway driving specially with load.

[@bullofthewoods9374]

thats why i leave my lly alone 05, 200k and going strong. you do not need all that horsepower nor torque u still cant haul more than the manufacture says. why do that to ur truck, all that money for something you dont need in the first place.

[@MRW21783]

Until you're the one on the side of the highway with a trailer, in rush hour stuck in limp mode lol. Been there done that.

[@bullofthewoods9374]

@@MRW21783 well not me i have the lly, but i work for a local gov and our fleet is going back to gas engines due to the regen bs on all the diesels.. who ever the idiots at the epa were that thought emergency vehicles would be fine with the regen are truly ignorant college dummies. hope im not in the back of an ambulance when it goes into limp mode for regen what a bunch of idiots. im keeping my lly no issues

[@bullofthewoods9374]

@Levi Doherty i do think thats the issue as well. im going to keep my ole 05 love the truck

[@tbiker99]

Wished I was along your route and could offer a hand. Unless you went way south on the return trip. Hope it turns out to be something minor. I've pulled a camper to Alaska and back, and I worry about stuff like this every trip. My '06 has caused me some issues, but most of been very minor and easy to fix on the side of the road. Every time I think about a newer one, I see something like this and I get reminded to keep my old truck. Staying tuned for the next video.
