There can be problems but most are over rated. Do what you can do and take care of what you can.


Agree with swne and most above

Have 8 pieces here with DEF --2 Volvo semi's 2012 and 2013 (should be the worst years???) 5 tractors and combine mostly 2015 models --think case had a 5 year warrenty on the DEF $500 deductible--not saying Case is better or worse than any other
get our DEF delivered bulk into a 275 gal tote--$1.50 a gal. range--take it inside when gets very cold
Not much trouble just ticks a person off when it does --usually a sensor or DEF filter once a year or so
The converters (mufflers???) are now cleaned for $500 but we haven't done that yet

Gets easier every year as mechanics and owners get used to DEF

Dan

to add we don't drain our DEF in winter or really pay much attention put some in when its low
