When the catylitic of soot filter builds up and not burned out totally what symptoms does one experience? Sluggis, no power?

If the filter gets to 100% it will need replacing, $2500 if your out of warranty. The overhead display will let you know when filter needs to be cleaned. You will have to drive truck over 50 mph for 45 minutes. You will need to have PCM and CCN updated if not done already. Refer to FLASH: Engine System And Exhaust Aftertreatment System Enhancements. TSB 18-013-08 Dealer will need to update computer.
