How much does a forced Regen cost?
A forced regeneration can be performed by any service shop with the appropriate diagnostic software. The cost for a forced regeneration varies. Generally, it is between $300-$700 depending on the technician’s required diagnostic time and the length of time your DPF regeneration lasts.
When does the Diesel Particulate Filter ( DPF ) regens?
This will likely occur every 100-300 miles. You will only see the notice on the EVIC if the soot level reaches 80-90% due to uncompleted regens. Active self-regeneration occurs when there is not sufficient heat in the exhaust to convert all the carbon being collected in the DPF.
What are the different types of DPF regeneration?
There are 3 different types of DPF regeneration, which are active, passive and forced. Active reads the back pressure of the exhaust or soot load of the filter to determine when to begin the regeneration. Once initiated, the timing of the fuel injection will alter that will result in the exhaust temperature increasing to burn the soot particles.
When does the exhaust filter regenerate on a truck?
Your truck will regenerate (active) when the DPF soot level reaches 65%. This will likely occur every 100-300 miles. You will only see the notice on the EVIC if the soot level reaches 80-90% due to uncompleted regens.
When does the active particulate filter regenerate?
Active = fuel is injected into the exhaust stroke strictly for the purpose of increasing exhaust gas temperatures (EGT’s) in order to get to the temperature necessary to burn the soot out of the diesel particulate filter (DPF). Your truck will regenerate (active) when the DPF soot level reaches 65%. This will likely occur every 100-300 miles.

How does forced catalytic converter affect DPF levels?
Manufacturers that use a passive form of regeneration typically install a oxidizing catalytic converter near the engine to increase the temperature. Forced is where the Active regeneration could not occur that has resulted in the soot levels reaching 70% and above.
