What it means

P244B means Particulate Filter Differential Pressure Too High Bank 1.

Check these first

  • A bank 1 particulate filter loaded with soot or ash
  • A blocked bank 1 DPF pressure sensor hose
  • A failed bank 1 DPF pressure sensor reading high
  • A restricted bank 1 exhaust downstream

What to do next

  1. Read bank 1 DPF differential pressure and soot load on a scan tool
  2. Run a forced regeneration to clear soot
  3. Inspect the bank 1 sensor hoses for blockage
  4. Check the bank 1 exhaust for downstream restriction
  5. Replace the bank 1 filter if restriction stays high after regeneration
  6. Clear the code and retest
