I'm looking to see what other users with the LMM is experiencing with regen periods. Of course only those with the gauges can really contribute.

Until recently, my regen experience would start when soot levels reached 35+, which at the time I thought was a good thing. But higher soot levels mean that it takes more time to regen. I have read around on the forums that the regen is forced at about 410 miles, although that is not my experience (unless the mileage count starts at the time when the previous regen starts, then that would track with my results below fairly accurately).

Highway experience (experience base on about 1400 miles of 95% highway driving at or near speed limits, during this period, My truck experience 4 regens):
Recently I started do regens at about 395 miles (give or take a couple miles)
Soot level between 20 to 25 max
Regens on the highway are taking about 30 miles to complete. (70 MPH).

City:
I will add that later as I collect the data.

The soot level is displayed on my Edge CTS, and currently/always running stock.

I'd also be interested in anyone running a programmer with the DPF still as well.
