Some of you guys might remember the "transmission" issue I had over the summer of 2016 where I would get an error code once every few times I tried to move my tractor. Long story short I paid a dealer many thousands to split my tractor and not find a thing wrong with the transmission. Gave t back to me saying it was fixed and did the exact same thing the next day. Turned out it was the $150 shuttle lever was randomly shorting out!
Anyway, everything was figured out late fall of 2016, I only used my tractor from that point in to feed cows over the winter. So when spring came and I discovered anywhere above 18mph on the road that there was what seemed to be as best as I can explain a random shield being hit rotationally by say a wheel? Not to mention the diff lock light will come on but I could never get it to engage after I got the tractor back.
After being so upset with the dealer and the timeframe from when it was fixed to when I actually used it above a couple mph I never brought it up to them figuring t would fall on deaf ears.
The fact I don't road my tractor very much it wasn't a huge problem for speed wise. Fast forward to yesterday and I had to go about 5 miles away with it. Took the trip(stayed below 18mph due to the noise showing up about 18.2-18.4) move some hay in a field with 4wd. Pulled out of the field flipped the 4wd switch and drove the 5 miles home. But for something happened that I can't explain as I was able to go a full 25 mph without any noise? I did absolutely nothing different than any other day, didn't hear any random(other) noises, bangs, clunks etc.
Today I go to feed the cows, flip the switch 4wd light comes on but no 4wd. Tractor is currently stuck in the pasture as I had to leave for work so I have not had a chance to look into this much.
Tractor has the 16spd trans. Sorry for the long post but thought it might help with some background on the tractor. Runs great and no noise at all roading it home like something is loose or banging around somewhere.
Thanks
Matt
