Soot level staying at 100%

[Jeepfueledbydiesel]

The iDash is a great tool but might be something that can cause stress. LOL. For the past three weeks my DPFRG has been at 100%. This is even after driving 50 miles at 70mph. It will go PAS and that's it. Never REGEN It did a nice REGEN back before all this started and went down to 10% but once it climbed up to 100% it has never gone back down.

Is this a sign of an issue? It goes in and out of PAS but never REG, at least in the past three weeks. From what I can tell I can't force a regen. I guess I just need to drive it until it either clears or something happens.

Just not used to this. I had a 2014 Cruze diesel and if it went into regen, I could sit in the driveway and hold the idle up to 2k and let it finish. That's if it didn't finish before I got home. All I can see in my mind is there is going to be an issue and I will have to take it into the dealer.

This is a 2022 with 45k miles. I'm the third owner.

What soot level?

I think you want to monitor DPF soot load% which is the bottom right one in my pic

This DPF SL%

Thanks, but Banks left out a bunch of parameters when they released the newer version of the idash. Transmission temperature is one of them along with DPFSL%.
Im hoping they will show up in the next update.

You need DPF SL% I believe like the others stated. Not sure what DPFRG% is monitoring.

The only two things i have ever seen for REGEN is PASS or OFF so i wouldnt worry about that.

DPFEG is the regen trigger % which is 100

as stated above you should monitor DPFSL.

Got it straightened out. I'm good to go now.

I wonder why the regen trigger isn't 80%? That's where our DPFs kick into active regen mode.

Seems odd that that value is 100%, maybe it’s just what Banks is interpreting it at. Mine always went into Regen at about 84% and ended at 8%. Haven’t seen it since the DPF got approved for “work from home”.
