I read this posting with great interest, and enjoyed all of it, the positives and negatives.

I agree whole heatedly with Rawze.

As a mechanic, I would also add more frequent oil and filter changes to help lower the rubbish content that get circulated in the combustion process.

I currently am driving a 2017 Mercedes MP4 Actros Euro 6 ( Add Blue ) Inline 6, 510hp.
I am blown away by the service schedule Daimler, Chrysler have allocated this truck.
At 40,000k, Check the lights are working ( Saftey Check )
At 80,000k, change the oil and filters.

My personal oil changes on my Cars ( Petrol and Diesel ) are at 5,000k or 6 months.
When I get my Truck, it will be every 20,000k. ( As I can change it myself )
And the cost will only be around $250 AUD.
Diesel in Australia is $1.38 per LITRE. ( Around $5 per gallon ! )
On average, and Aussie truck gets 1.7 > 2.5 Kilometres per Litre.
Pulling B-Doubles the lowest.

Oil never wears out, it just gets dirty.
The thicker it gets with rubbish, the harder it is for the crankshaft to slice through it on EACH rotation ( Like dragging a stick through the water from the bank, the faster you go, the more drag it has ) This cost in HP and Fuel. Also adding the rubbish to the cylinder wall on each stroke of the piston.

Well thats my 2 cents :)

At the bottom of this post, I describe my recommendations to others on oil change intervals...

Your on the money mate :)
I try to inform all my car owner customers of the potential damage, and the savings they can gain.
I also educate them on tire pressures as well.

Engine seals go hard from lack of oil changes, which in turn wears grooves in crankshafts / camshafts.

I forgot to mention, Oil NEVER wears out, it just gets dirty.
( Thats why it can be recycled )
Synthetic was only manufactured to HOLD more dirt than Mineral Oil.

Hey Guys,

I have a 2010 cummins isc 8.3 in a freightliner M2. Looking for info getting a de-mandate. I almost purchased a ecm mod through 1 of the "big guys" but luckily came across this this forum first during my research!
Big guys wanted $4400 for the ecm tune and their "local guy" wanted $3,000 to gut dpf/scr as well as plug the egr and egr valve!
I am not looking for a hp mod, just a emissions mod as well as a possible egr/valve bypass kit. If anyone would pm me info that would be appreciated. Also any post or info on the web with detailed instructions on xing out the dpf/scr/doc? I have cummins insite as well.

I honestly cannot afford another week at the shop! I wish this system worked well but unfortunately it is ahead of its time with my application needs. Hopefully it was okay to post on this thread...:blush:

Thank you

A good friend of mine recently purchased 2 - 2014 Peterbuilts. They have ISX15s in them. He told me they came from the previous owner with no exhaust filters. He has no clue what program is in the computer. I convinced him that he needs to find out.
I'm in San Diego the trucks are in Las Vegas. Is there anybody in Sin City that could help us out?

Dr ISX in Vegas, search him here on the forum, his number is posted. I don't know if he messes with the anything newer than a CM-871.
