I’ve monitored the soot mass on my MX+ and a 15 minute idle increases the load by 1/2 a percent. For example, when sitting last night at a local restaurant waiting for take out, I idled for fifteen minutes. Soot mass when I parked was at 52.5%…after 15 minutes when I departed for the house it was at 53%. When I parked at the house it was at 53.1%. Today, I went on a round trip run to Wharton which is 35 miles south of here. It is exactly 72 miles round trip and with passive regen doing 75 mph was able to reduce the soot mass to 45.1. I’ve got about another 20 miles before I’ll see an active regen as it seems to be going active every 750 to 800 miles.
Your results may vary but I’ve find the MX+ to be a fantastic way to keep an eye on soot mass, active regens and turbo shutdown temp.
