Sorry if this isn’t the right place to ask for help delete it if I’m in the wrong section but I’m having some issues hoping someone can give me some insight
I’m new to trucks especially Diesels I recently picked up a 2007.5 GMC Sierra 2500hd duramax the truck has 252,xxx miles when I got it I knew something didn’t feel right about the truck I took it to a shop and had them diagnostic the truck they told me my DPF was clogged severely and I would also need a new turbo they quoted me a hefty number that I just couldn’t afford I have a friend who’s a Diesel mechanic at universal studios in Hollywood ca and told him the issues we went ahead and got my turbo rebuilt the vein had a crack in it I replaced all the necessary gaskets o rings and metal fittings then I got a remanufactured DPF put it all back together the first day felt pretty good no codes I only put 20 miles on it the next day I turned it on stated driving 10 min later I got a check engine light and reduced engine power warning I took it back to the exhaust shop and the Remanufactured remanufactured DPF was already clogged! I don’t know how that’s even possible! When they took it off he also realized the cat had been previously cutted out im in desperate need of help I don’t want to throw anymore parts at it!!!!! Thank you
