I have a 2013 6.7 diesel. It goes through the exhaust filter cleaning about every 200 miles. After this process starts the engine runs extremely rough, like it's ready to drop out. There is also a very loud knocking noise and violent shaking while i drive. Yes, it's more than just the typical diesel clatter.

I was in a rural stretch of highway and was able to get to the shoulder of the road without too much trouble,…
