XR3135 regeneration time?

[Nate71]

Have to say I feel bad for that guy. I have the same tractor & hove had no issues.

In response to the much older, original question. The first regen that I noticed was at 50hrs. Since that time it has always been around the 40-45 hour mark. It helps I think how the tractor is broken in. We stored the tractor about a mile from where we used it. Starting & ending every work day with a wide open mile long run to the shed .
The last few regens have been at 233hours, 278 hours, 325hours.

My first regen on the XR4145 was exactly at 50hrs. I just did the second one at 98.6hrs. I'd say that is close enough.
That guy in the videos, as Nate stated, I feel bad for him. It appears he got a 'lemon' and it happens. It happens with everything.

This guy has LS regen engine issue and takes it in stride..........

I see now this same guy has finally fixed his blue tractor, who would've thought that a simple color change fixes all tractor problems, but what will he say one year from now.................. We Went ORANGE! ~~ Kubota L251 - YouTube

Has anyone ever removed the environmental control unit from the engine and re-programmed? Is it possible?

This has been discussed on a few other threads. Namely:

So far, and as far as I know, the ECU has not been 'cracked' to allow users with simple free or cheap software to effectively communicate with the ECU to reprogram the emissions sensors... yet.

Removing the DPF and everything else, physically, is easy enough done. But as soon as you do, your tractor will not start. The computer (ECU) will throw errors and will require reprogramming. Your warranty (if applicable) will be voided.

I do believe some people have attempted to reprogram the ECU with varying degrees of success. Depends on make/model and year.

If it was my tractor off warranty and couldn't afford to fix it every month and or trade in, I'd rip out all the wires, computer and environmental control unit and start over with just the basic start and go wire harness.

I have wondered about this too. Although my little 25 hp doesn't have all that emissions crap on it to start with
