Hi
My New Holland 5030 had new clutch installed about a year and a half ago and had new bearings put in gearbox a few months later. After the the gearbox job it sticks in gear and wont come out unless you switch the engine off. Then it runs forward or back slightly depending on gradient and frees up.It was split after this problem started and mechanic had pressure plate set, and said he saw no other problem with clutch, but it never remedied problem. This sticking happens about 80% of the time, getting worse the longer you work. It is a 4 x 4 tractor and some mechanics have said it has incorrect tyres on (back 14.9-36 on 13' rims and front 13.6-24 on 12" rims). To disprove that theory, or that that is cause of this problem, I removed 4 wheel drive-shaft and same occurs.
Anyone experienced similar problem? No one seems to know how to remedy this. I bought the tractor second hand, so not sure of year model.
