Seems like this is related so I'm posting on this thread. Since I changed that egr pipe my DEF usage has shot up substantialy. Sometimes when the truck is idling you can smell ammonia. It went through 3 1/2 gallons in about 500 miles. Previously that would last me almost 5000 miles. There...

Can't. Bolts are threaded right into the exhaust manifold casting with no through hole. Watched a few YouTube videos and got some free advice from a Hino tech who happened to wander into the parts department while I was picking up the new pipe ($600 for the pipe and gaskets -Holy smokes!). He...

Ok. So it's not the intercooler, it's an EGR cooler? It looks like the cooler bolts will come off ok, but I have the same reservation about the manifold end. It is 12 years old, but still only 60k on it so maybe it won't be too seized up. At least I know what to look for. Thanks again.

Used the exhaust brake the other day and heard a hissing like a giant air leak. Checked around under the hood and saw a pile of soot on the right side of the engine. Found a good size leak in the forward flex joint in the pipe shown that runs from the rear of the exhaust manifold to the...

This one is closer to the target, but it only does 300 and 600 series trucks: Hino Diagnostic EXplorer 2 HINO DX2 V1.1.21.2 +Troubleshootings Manuals | eBay I haven't stress tested it like you techs would, but it does work, and it runs on Windows 10.

I finally went and bought DX2 software and a knockoff USB link. Sooner or later I knew I'd need it, I just didn't want to spend the time learning how to use it. Turns out it wasn't that bad (with a little help from my friends here). On 2 trips longer than 15 minutes I got a fault code--P2214...

Just PM'd you. Yesterday, the CEL came on about 10 miles into a 120 mile round trip. While it showed no fault after shutting off the engine, the CEL remained and it came back on the return trip. P204F is showing but it seems that can be a lot of things, including the DEF injector. But at...

Catching up on unread posts..... I haven't heard of that campaign, but a quick Google search says it's a recall for specific trucks. How can I find out if mine is effected?

So I've been looking for brake rotors for my 2011 Hino 258 LP. I've noticed that 258 LP's have 8 lugs and 258 ALP's have 10. Seems to be about the same number of each for sale when I look on trucktrader or some other site so I can't imagine the ALP's outsell the LP's by some large margin. Why...

Well, it took a while, but the problem "resolved" itself....at 65 mph on Route 90 eastbound. Sounded like a grenade going off and did just about as much damage. Not even 40,000 miles on the tire and it was wearing evenly but something definitely wasn't right. Fortunately I was in the right...

Does this spell the end of Hino diesel engines? Cummins (CMI) Strikes Deal With Hino, Hits 52-Week High

Sounds like air is getting in there. Are the o rings good, no cuts or abrasions? Did you lubricate them before reinstalling them? Did you tighten the dome ring properly? If not, air can get in and the fuel can drain back. First time I changed my filter I had that issue and it turns out the ring...

I tried that. It won't. But it will hold just fine with 3 clips.

Hey, that's great to hear! When you said that procedure wasn't in the manual I was stumped. I had to drive a good 300 miles and the bad DEF light went out by itself. Not really sure why, but when I tried to get diagnostic codes it said there weren't any even though the check engine light was...

Did you follow the directions in the owners manual when you changed the DEF? I got some bad DEF and the "change DEF" warning came on at 3 a.m. on 95 in Eastern Connecticut. Lots of hills and not much in the way of open truck stops. It derated and had a real hard time getting up some of those...

If its the same as the 2011, use a thin flat blade screwdriver in the slots on the sides where the back meets the front bezel. Pry gently toward the bezel so that the blade lifts the edge of the back plate away from the housing until you hear it release. Do the top and bottom on one side and...

So I've searched and read all forums with the word "shock" in them, and I can't find a definite answer. I've been trying to find the source of a vibration in my 2011 Hino 258 LP for months. It has 24,000 original miles and the original tires. I've had the front tires balanced and checked for...

I honestly have no idea how much it is going to cost. What am I willing to pay? Let's just say I'm not going to put that in writing here as company reps often read forums that deal with their products. I'm cheap and I don't want to pay more than I have to, but once I get the price I'll know...

Update: Hendrickson came through with the Hino specs. Due to the utility body on the truck they upgraded the kit from the CA-190 to the CA-230 for additional roll stiffness. Still need an approved application, but since they have all the dimensions I don't have to crawl around under there and...

Ok, so I'm sick of having everything that's stored behind the rear axle tossed around by the factory leaf spring suspension. I've contacted Hendrickson about one of their Comfort Air kits (CA-190 seems right for a 258LP) and despite the fact that they manufacture the factory air suspension for...
