It reads up to 100%. On my way to work yesterday, I am seeing the value getting close to 100%. It was reading 99.6% as I was 1/4 mile from the parking lot, but then looked again and the value dropped to 78%, and within about 100 yards, I see the EGT gauges going up. I was already pulling in to work, so I would wait until after work to see what that gauge does during a regen.

The freeway isn't far from the office. The engine temp was just getting warm enough as I got on the freeway and I saw a regen start up. As the regen ran, I could see the DPF Status gauge come down. When the regen was finished, the status gauge had gotten down around 30%.

If this is any indication, whatever this gauge is measuring, it seems to be the trigger to start a regen cycle when it hits 100%.

Very cool! I'll check these numbers out first chance I get.. Thanks!

Tried the PID above in my 2011 just now and no worky.
I copied the PID code from the text above, to be sure I didn't mistype.
Noticed a scale factor and left it at default. Here's a screen shot when I just opened to edit. Well, maybe not. File upload button isn't working.

That's kinda what I was thinking, too. Thanks

Saw the same thing this last Saturday - was headed toward the freeway - reading was 99.6 - then all of a sudden it dropped to 56 and a regen started. Ran it on the freeway watching the temps. When they came back down to normal, the DPF reading was a little below 30. So i can confirm that this gauge works. It lets you know when it is about to start a regen when it approaches 100.
