I purchased a Duramax after having a Dodge 5.7L gas for a year after having a Dodge 5.9 cummins for 18 years and 300k trouble free years.

Duramax is a 2013 with 99k - i put 10k on it last year.



Here is my issue;


Driving a Stock 2013 Duramax. Just started tossing a P0420 code. I have TorquePro and i watched the four EGT sensors

Cold they all read OK (within a couple of degrees of each other)
Start truck and the #1 and 2 go up to about 655-700 degrees pretty quicky, 3 & 4 are 150ish lower. As the truck comes up to temp #1 & 2 drop down to about the same as 3 & 4 at 350-450f

NOx #1 is a lot higher than #2 (#2 stays close t ozero - #1 is all over the place up to 500)

DPF #1 is about 50 higher than #2 at550f and 500f

Filter Bank1 Delta Pressure -300kPa


ANY Ideas as to the issue?




any other data needed, i may have it?

Thanks
Randy

Thanks for the help Guys! another day with NO Check Engine light!



New problem has crept into the picture, the darn radio is scanning channels at will.
(At least the truck is running) and i will research it and start a new thread if i need.
