Would love to know what you find out about a delete. My online research has gotten nothing and I haven't asked around yet. No emissions where I am either. Will keep using DEF with my fingers crossed for now

I found the delete and tune.

https://www.velocityap.com/ British Columbia. you have to call them.

The draw back is, you or a shop has to gut the SCR, DPF, and Cat. and remove the EGR.

or you take it to British Columbia and they will turn key is all.

Hope this helps.

Oil change Saturday.

Oil Dilution number was 7.62, trigged service engine message to come up.

I went ahead and changed oil and filter, and fuel filter. No metal in oil filter, no leaks on belly pan.


No metal

No leak

Bull bar still crooked, this weekends project.

@gmfain was finally able to get my diagnostics tool working properly. Thanks again for the recommendation, the tool is awesome!

Went to reset my "service due now" indicator last night (can't stand any lights/notifications on the dash) and planning to do an oil change/fuel filter service this weekend and reset again. The oil dilution was at 4.3% per the tools interface. How accurate is that oil dilution calculation and how high is unsafe for dilution numbers? Have read online anything greater than 2% is bad, but have also read higher 4-6%. Anyone have good information on this? Thanks in advance!

I too have asked this question to my Indy mechanic. He said I over think stuff..LOL.

He said you change your oil 5-6 thousand mile intervals and use the correct oil.

In case it still get too diluted, the computer will pop up and tell you its time to change your oil, way early than you expected.

He didn't have a specific dilution number.

Hope this helps.
