Detroit Diesel Series (DD5 and DD8 engines), model years 2016–2021. Suitable for trucks requiring delete of emission control systems (DPF/SCR).

If the cost of fixing your truck’s emission systems is getting too expensive, our remote tuning service may be the perfect solution.

Derates, loss of power, poor fuel economy, and costly downtime that keeps your truck off the road are often caused by a clogged DPF filter or a failing SCR system.

Our remote tuning service solves these problems by professionally deleting the DPF and SCR systems through ECU software reprogramming. This eliminates some of the most common emissions-related failures and significantly lowers the ongoing maintenance costs associated with factory emission equipment.

And if you’d rather get ahead of the problem before it starts — this service is for you too. Proactively deleting these systems before they fail means you’ll never have to deal with those expensive repair bills in the first place. Once tuned, your truck will run without constant regeneration issues, DEF system faults, repeated sensor failures, or loss of performance from soot buildup and exhaust restrictions. The result is a more dependable truck with less downtime and fewer disruptions.

This is ECM tuning (adjustment) service. The result of this service is improvement the performance characteristics of customer’s equipment.

The service may require additional hardware and/or software tools on the Customer side. See “Equipment requirements” section for the details.

Terms and conditions are determined in the Public Offer Agreement. Full agreement text is located in the Agreement section of this website.

The ECM tuning may cause emission class change. Customer takes full responsibility of technical inspections and certification of his equipment regardless of his jurisdiction and local emissions regulations. DrunkLab LLC will not accept complaints due to certification incompatibilities.

A DPF and DEF delete changes the ECU software so it no longer operates or monitors the DPF and SCR (DEF) systems. These are the emissions systems that can start giving you trouble as the miles add up.

Our Detroit Diesel 2016-2021 DPF/SCR delete is a remote ECU programming service for engines originally equipped with these systems. It addresses recurring DPF and DEF problems that can keep putting a truck back in the shop.

The equipment was built to reduce exhaust emissions. But once components get older, keeping it working can become a job of its own. Clogged DPF. Another DEF sensor fault. Dosing problems that keep coming back. Before long, you’re losing power, missing loads, and spending more time parked than you planned.

With the delete, the ECU stops managing those systems and triggering their related warnings and derates. No more forced DPF regens or power cuts caused by DPF/SCR faults. Day-to-day engine operation becomes simpler and more predictable.

The priority is dependable operation: a truck that can get through the workday without another emissions issue bringing it to a stop.

We match the programming to your engine’s specific setup, with safe engine operation in mind. Each truck gets software suited to its configuration.
