OK, I've had my Duramax Diesel for 4 years now, and never ONCE noticed anything ever occurring. I keep waiting to feel something, loss of power, rev-ing engine, anything... nope. It does it so slick I never noticed or felt anything happening.
If I'm going city driving when a regen happens, I can tell it's in regen - examples are:
If I am at a stop light, I will notice higher engine RPM.
The engine sounds different - only usually noticeable if I am outside
the truck, like when I arrive home and open to door for some reason before shutting off the engine.
It will smell hot if I am out roaming around the truck when hooking up a trailer, etc.
When on the highway, I will see the AVG MPG start to go in the toilet.
I have had various Edge Insight engine monitors, they all tell me when the DPF regen cycle is happening.
Without fail, the truck will regen once during every tank of fuel.
I've never had it regen more frequently than that.
