Detroit Diesel Engine Repair in Montreal: DD13, DD15, DD16 and Series 60

Detroit engines power most Freightliner Cascadias and late-model Western Stars, and the Series 60 is still common in many fleets. We diagnose and repair them in Saint-Laurent.

FAQ

Are you a Detroit dealer?

No. CM Montréal is an independent heavy-duty truck shop; we are not a Detroit dealer or warranty centre.

Can you do a forced regen on a DD15?

Yes, after diagnostics. A regen doesn't always fix the root cause, so we check sensors, the DOC and the doser first.

Do you repair the Series 60?

Yes, we still service and repair Series 60 engines.
