Looked Up my Regen Stats

Went to dealer today to get the AJ flash installed and while I was there I asked if the technician could look at the number of active regens the truck has had.

29 regens in a total of 11,997 miles or roughly 1 every 400 miles. But he did tell me that the last regen recorded was at 62xx miles. So does this mean I haven't had an active regen in 5000 miles? I had the AF flash done when I bought it and put the exhaust blankets on when it had 3000-4000 miles. Maybe my blankets are doing something.

He also told me my idle time was 15% and I start it and drive and hardly ever leave it run when I am not in it so I was surprised the idle time was that high of a percentage.

Course as soon as I hit the highway after the AJ flash it regen'd. Mileage seems unaffected by the flash so far.

By the way the tech did try to tell me that it will not regen when cruise is on and I told him that this truck is not driven without cruise so it has to regen on cruise. This seems like an old wives tale that just won't go away.
