How much I do not know.

What you really need to do is take it in for a diagnostics.

They can command the turbos and check the pressures and the DPF as well.

That would be the best way to determine the issue.

Just my 2 cents.

We were figuring if you just pulled the DPF back from the forward part of the exhaust a little it would still get enough heat to not go into regen, think that will work? The only problem is he can't get it to a place to check easily, it's around 600 miles to the nearest place he said.

That's what he said but where in the US would you be 600 miles from a Ford dealer? Then again he may not be in the US...profile info is often helpful.

i dont have a diagnostic here thats the problem.
but i took the dpf off besides a nice sound nothing changed so i guess i have to check the turbo shaft and the control unit :-(

OK, that explains the 600 mi to the dealer.

Knowing the fuel prices in Europe, I don't know how you guys can afford one of these trucks. Our cost is about a dollar per liter...I'm sure it's a lot higher there. I imagine that the purchase price is a bit higher, too. And except for the autobahn, I'd think would it be difficult to drive it on the narrow roads.
