2003 f-250 6.0

Morningjust reaching out to see you have any ideas. I have a 2003 f-250 6.0 ford thathas a P1000 code that will not clear have taken it to one local shop and oneford dealer. The local shop says it’s a ford software problem and the dealersays it because I have a different coolant in it and because I have a coolantfilter on it.and because the truck wont get over 180 deg theys say but I toldthem they where full of crap on that one. Pulled my 36ft over the grapevine andit got about 220 deg All stock expectcoolant filter and exhaust. I changed the oil cooler and egr cooler about 55000’sago truck has 155000 now. Just reaching out for any help I need the p1000cleared to get it smogged. have put many miles on it and it still wont clear.

Thanks
