Particulate Filter Shot

[mt1949]

3500 Ram Dually 22700 Miles, and my Particulate filter is shot. Dealer does not have one in stock and say that it will be about
two weeks before one arrives. Never saw a regeneration since I have had this truck since new 2014 Model.
Truck has been in the shop more than on the road, Tire Preasure sensors I have had three on the same wheel.
Among other problems. I'm finished with Diesels, Ford, GMC, Chev, Ram. Until they can get the problem with these
trucks fixed I'm done. Cheaper to use a delivery service. And this is 95% Hwy driving.

Whoa!
Theres more to the story, right? Please start from the beginning.

What took it out? Do you have an out of spec injector over fueling and creating too much soot? There has to be a cause unless the dpf itself is bad.

I work on 30-40 4th gens a week-never had any dpf issues

IMO, you won't see the regen taking place. There's no way you would not have a regen in 22,000 miles. I find it nearly impossible to tell when the truck is in regen with the gauge. The video below is what takes place. It's long but you really can hear or smell anything.
