manholt Report post Posted August 4, 2017 My re generation was every 3 to 4 thousand miles 4 years ago. Then it dropped to 2,500 and now it's 400. I have heard about having the filter "baked", is it worth the cost and time? What's a new one cost? Coach has 72,400+ miles. Carl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jleamont Report post Posted August 4, 2017 Carl, usually we pull them send them out for cleaning at 200,000 mile mark. Cleaning costs less than $500 plus labor to remove it/reinstall it. A Cummins dealer should be able to check pressure deltas across it and see if that is causing you the problems. A reman filter is in the neighborhood of $1800 new $3000 assuming it's compromised internally. Keep in mind that is just the DPF portion not the Catalyst behind it. Those don't usually wear out....but I have seen a few Cummins powered Freightliners with ISL power in your year range tear them up, $5000 for one of those.
