[QUOTE="Emery19, post: 194714, member: 2530"] I searched a little bit, but I couldn't really find what I was looking for. Bought the 08 in August with 77k or so on it, and when it went into regens everything seemed normal. I went back to school, and I leave the truck at home. Dad drives it every a few times every week so it doesn't sit. he called me one time and mentioned a little white smoke driving around. but not to to bad. I couldn't really diagnose it being 500 miles away. being home now for break I've been driving the truck around. Everything seemed normal and so i was like hmm, might have been a fluke, because it just so happened the two times dad noticed it, it was when it was damp and raining. Thursday 12/22/11 I went to my buddies house to move a couch and some other stuff, picked up all the stuff and went to drive from that house to his parents house (15-20 minute drive) pulled out onto the main road and i looked in my mirror and noticed the truck pouring white smoke out the tailpipe. Before i jumped to conclusions I ran a system check and it told me that the truck was cleaning the exhaust filter. I had never seen it do this before, but it cleared up pretty quick. drove to his parents house, back to my house about 20 miles or so. then a 75 mile round trip, to drop some rugs off in Falmouth and then parked it. It sat Friday and Saturday, I ran it for about 20-30 minutes on Sunday just because it had been about 10 degrees and I wanted to make sure it was run just to make sure. Today, 12/27/11 I went out did a few errands and drove about 15 miles or so, but it was completely warmed up and such. went to pick up some Applebees and was up to about 7-8 miles away from home at a stop light and as i took off the truck was dumping white smoke and pretty much fogged out everyone behind me, pulled off to the next light and sure enough the truck was in regen again, according to the computer. pulled away from the light and the smoke continued to come, (it hadn't stopped unless i wasnt accelerating) I could see the next couple lights were green so I gave it a good bit of gas, and it fogged my whole lane, did that for a 1/4 of a mile and eventually cleared up as i pulled into Applebees. No signs of smoke all the way home but it wasnt in regen. is this amount of white smoke normal when the trucks in regen? or is something wrong with the dpf or egr cooler. sorry for the long read, I was just trying to get as much information in for you guys to help me. Cliff notes: regened twice within 100 miles sh!t ton of white smoke during regen. not sure if something is wrong or if its normal. Thanks in advance guys! [/QUOTE]
