We never idle very long, only tillage.
Steiger 500 HD, replaced a good turbo with some oil bypass at 1500 hrs. The reman lasted 4 hours. After that the muffler failed ($4K). It was fine after those repairs.
Sold it and replaced with 850 hr. Steiger 550. It had to have DEF elbow replaced at 850 hrs (wasn't atomizing). Then the muffler was bad ($10K).
