I was getting error code for DPF so my Mechanic took apart and it has a hole at the corner. and i am also getting low fuel avg on this truck. like 4 MPG. Should i simply replace the filter or should i check something else as well before replacing it.
I'm just curious why did it crack and it more looks like its burned. So could there be a Fuel leak or something.. its Prostar Cummins ISX

You will need to replace both cans, DPF and DOC along with an EGR Tuneup... But FIRST! How many miles on the truck, which ISX motor, year? Could be a number of things that have caused this... That needs to be addressed first. Nothing worse than pissing money away.
