"I can guarantee you that the DPF's were getting hot enough to passively regen up that hill. Anytime you are at high load for periods like that will trigger a passive regen due to the DPF getting hot enough without the use of extra fuel."
Are you saying that a "passive regen" is an actual event to the engine or simply that due to running the engine so hard the filter got hot enough to self clean and no further action by the engine management system was necessary?
If they had followed this piece of advice " I am not too fond of pulling a load like that up a hill at 1,600 rpm and would rather be in the 1,800-2,200 rpm range to keep EGT's as low as possible." would that have killed the passive regen?
