DEF Systems Can Now Be Disabled if they Fail

[DavidL]

I am glad that when DEF equipment fails our rigs are no longer required to be instantly bricked. That was indeed a lame requirement. There should have been a built-in grace period to get the issue resolved vs. Being sent to the penalty box immediately.

However, I am also in favor of reducing my vehicle emissions by almost 90% and emitting harmless water and nitrogen gas. Not choking on harmful nitrogen oxide is a good thing.

Best,

I haven't read the new regulation re: DEF....is this going production forward or also backwards? Mine is pre-def so, no Diff to me but curious. Maybe thats the rub that is keeping RedBaron from marketing an aftermarket solution...

Don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings, but def was never a good idea. What a disaster it turned out to be. The best thing they can do is do away with it. Delete, delete, delete. If it worked they would have applied it for every engine that used diesel. All that regulation did was cost a whole bunch of people a lot of money and put many people at risk.
