Hello,
I've got a 2012 with a cracked DPF that I was fine with running on till the emissions fix was done but seems that will be a while from now. I monitor my EGTs and is driving me nuts seeing temps above 1200 much of the time I drive as it can't regen and keeps trying. $2500 for a replacement is out of the question but $1300 for a delete pre emissions fix is out too(Malone tune and delete will be ordered immediately after the 'fix' though) Then I question whether they will force me to repair to comply with the emissions fix... Anyone have any input on this issue? I worry that running these temps will cause damage and more issues later.
This issue has me reconsidering just going with a buy back to get it over with and not deal with the issues. Plus the buy back is offered at more than I paid for the car so it's attractive.
Thanks in advance. I did read several threads about this but still wonder about my options.
