Highway 4x4

So what if you get the 80% message when you are way back on a 4x4 road and won't hit pavement for many hours? I was told a new DPF costs $3K.

If you stop and let it idle for 5 minutes you will go to 900 rpms and be in the "net-zero" (pretty sure that's its name), which is a slower regen. You can now idle or stay under 25 mph and continue to regen. It's programming specifically designed for backroads/farm use.

...and if you want a heat a little sooner in the morning plug it in the night before on a timer and let it warm up for a few hours before you leave.

i've been threatened with 80% for a few days now and today it climbed to "Go see a dealer". Unfortunately i'm 3 hrs away from the nearest city, in Northern Canada. I'm 12 miles from the nearest paved road. If I boogie out to the highway and burn for an hour will this filter clean out or am i destined to hit a dealership? (I still have 50,000 miles on the engine warranty but am seriously considering a full delete)

Any tips/Advice would rock.

(It's plugged in all night, warms up 15min before i drive, gets driven 15min at a time, idles off and on for 10 min or so, and all seems to make it worse. ) (First time i've gotten this message in 50,000 miles of driving)
