General Questions for Cummins X15

[Rawze]

Highway trucks that drive 10+ hours at a time regularly ...

== Regular EGR-circuit tune-up work (about every year or 2 at the most) to keep everything from getting sooted up and running AMOK.

== Pull the cans and have them baked, de-ashed, and flow tested every 2 years or so as well.

Do this to both the engine and the cans and it will stay healthy for a very very long time.


Local trucks that hardly drive for 10+ hours at a time somewhere...

== Tune up work every year. Pull the cans to have them cleaned every year.

===============

If someone is not wanting to outright de-mandate it, there is still some custom tuning that can be done...

== It is also possible to have everything operate as normal while still shutting off most of those dreaded derates and shutdowns only. Make the system more lenient so that they do not leave you stranded on the side of the road whenever they do act up or give faults. The systems, CEL lights, warnings, regen, etc. will all still operate as normal, but someone can finish their deliveries etc. and get it back home / to the place of their choice to fix on it, without it shutting you down.
