Sorry to the O.P. for hijacking his thread,but a little update. I had the dealer come and get the GR2100 a couple weeks ago to fix the leak.They had an "upgrade" kit available,which I was told Kubota would cover under warranty(3 months past 4 yrs. and 15hrs. past 400) ,I had to pay for labor or any other parts that were worn(pto clutch)-I stopped by on Weds.,was torn apart-the one mechanic aid the pto clutches looked good(said they were the upgraded style already
)said it should be done Fri. or Sat.(15th or 16th),if not,Monday the latest. Well,it came back Sat. morning-looks like a new tranny case axle.A few hours later I go back out to put deck on-and there is a tiny puddle of oil under the right axle
-I look closely,and the case is a little damp underneath the right axle on the back,along w/ the channel that goes under the tranny case-I wipe it dry,put deck on,and mow for about a 1/2 hr-park it-and a few hrs. later check the floor,and it's still dry
-still dry this morning-I'll check it again before I go to work Mon. morning,as I will be stopping by dealer after work to see what total cost is for the job....I will post what I find out.
