Final answer:

Both Technician A and Technician B are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Both Technician A and Technician B are correct.

Technician A is correct because most EPA MY 2013 highway compliant diesel engines do use SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) systems. SCR is a technology used to reduce nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions in diesel engines.

Technician B is also correct because an SCR system relies on replenishing DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) on a regular basis. DEF is a solution of urea and water that is injected into the exhaust system to convert NOx emissions into harmless nitrogen and water.
