Default BX22 rear axle issue - little power

My BX22 showed little power with the rear wheels today. Had to put it in 4 wheel to get anything done. Could this be a fluid issue as I noticed some fluid spots under the rear axle where it was parked? Any suggestions?

Have you checked the simple things? Fluid level, 3PT control in neutral, parking brake off, engine/fluid warmed up, hydraulic connections full seated, etc.. Have you taken off or put on an implement recently? Have you taken off or put on the loader recently?

Just searching for something that can help point out potential issues so we can help you out better.

If you have a hydro issue,putting in 4wd isnt going to do a thing! If putting it in 4wd helps,you were spinning a tire...

used it today and noticed a problem. The rear tires were loaded by the dealer when I bought it new. The reason I am losing power is the right rear rim spins inside the tire when more power is needed. What would cause this?

Not enough friction between the bead and the rim... do you know what was used to load?

Sometimes, increasing the air pressure can help... they also make a bead sealer that is kind of sticky...

I foamed filled my tires and no more problems...

Sounds like you need some air presure in there,some folks try to use all fliud and don't put any air in.You need soome presure in there to hold tire tight to rim

I didn't think this would be possible without the wheel going flat?

Maybe try slightly over-inflating for a little bit (drive for a couple rounds) and then drop it to rated pressure? Just some thought
