I ask because I keep getting a CEL that I'm sure is regen related. Trouble is, the light will reset after a decent length drive (25-30+mins at highway speeds), but then it will come back on just a few days later. I'll do another long drive, it'll reset....then a few days later, back on.

Wondering if this could be related.

Thx.
I'll be honest, my mechanic told me too every other oil change. I trust him fully. Try it, hopefully it will solve the problem. It's a pretty easy procedure. Just have the extra clamp, as a stand by.

Bosch part # 0-44-021-007 Injector Clamp, pretty universal for DEF https://www.carparts.com/intake-clam...h/bs0444021007

@ponderosajack might know that answer.
Sorry, I don't have that answer but can look it up if you haven't received an answer yet.
I thought I saw a post stating it was separate filter.

@BchBum11511 Here are a few pics of winch connections. For the positive, remove the two 5mm bolts, and notch the plastic, and mount underneath. Sorry you can see it. clearly.


Negative, just clean it well, don't over torque it.

I thought they were those tires I was gonna buy them but went with the cooper discoverer rugged treks because @orangeman recommended them and I thought the falkens weren't going to be that good offroad so went with the coopers since they are a rugged terrain tire so the perfect mix of A/T and M/T

Nice! ..... I went by my tire store. My tire guy said I could get KO2 BFG for $150 more than the AT3w Falkens. So I went with the KO2s, $1300 out the door.

He will install them Friday.
