No, the 2011 Chevy Duramax diesel engines do not use DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid). DEF was introduced in the Duramax line starting with the 2013 model year to comply with stricter emissions regulations. The 2011 model does not have the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system that requires DEF.
General Motors began using diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) in its Duramax diesel engines starting with the 2011 model year. This was part of the implementation of the EPA's stricter emissions standards, which aimed to reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions. The use of DEF helps improve the overall efficiency and environmental performance of the engine.

No, it is not recommended to use any other fluid in the Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) system besides DEF. Using any other fluid can cause damage to the system and affect the performance of the vehicle. DEF is specifically designed to work with the system and meet emission standards.
DEF (diesel exhaust fluid) is used as a consumable in SCR (selective catalytic reduction) in order to lower NOx concentration in the diesel exhaust emissions from diesel engines.
A gallon of Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) typically weighs about 8.5 pounds. This weight can vary slightly depending on the specific formulation and temperature, but 8.5 pounds is a standard approximation for DEF, which is composed of 32.5% urea and 67.5% deionized water.
Tractor Trailers got to meet EPA requirements. Because California has so much pollution in the air. "DEF fluid" can get about 2,700 miles to a 25 gallon tank, that is what my 2011 Volvo is averaging. DEF Fluid helps your truck burn cleaner fuel, so you put out less pollution, so you can better reach California EPA requirements.
It's spelt Def Leppard, for a start and they're hoping to start touring in the beginning of 2011 = )
you should. its def worth it. you dont absolutely have to, but you really should.
DEF is Diesel Exhaust Fluid - it's intended to burn off emissions from diesel motors by sending it through a furnace of sorts. 2011 and newer diesel motors have it. Bulk DEF - it simply means you buy it in bulk, rather than in individual gallon containers. This would usually require you to have your own storage tank, and the idea is that you pay a lower per unit price than if you bought it in small quantities.
Def Leopard does still tour. They are going to be performing at the Blossom Music Center in Cleavland, Ohio today, August 24, 2011. They will be at the Minnesota State Fair on August 26, 2011.
The following matches happened in WWE summerslam 2011: a. Mark Henry def. Sheamus b. Kelly Kelly def. Beth Phoenix c. Wade Barret def. Daniel Bryan d. Randy Orton def. Christian (For World Title) e. CM Punk def. John Cena (For WWE Title) f. Alberto Del Rio cashed in his Money in the Bank option and won the WWE Title.
Stupid idea. These catalyst systems are extremely strict about how pure the DEF must be. If it detects impurities in the DEF, it'll first derate, and eventually shut down, the engine. Then, the DEF tank, DEF doser, and all DEF lines will have to be removed and thoroughly cleaned out (in the case of the lines and the tank, they'll probably just be replaced outright). The DEF doser will have to be cleaned out and possibly replaced, then all that has to be reinstalled.
