Does anybody have a coolant leak on their John Deere 4320, 4520 and or 4720 compact tractor? I have had a leak, some where on my 4320, for about as long as have owned the tractor, which is 9 years. I bought the tractor new in April of 2006. It is the cab model with the 72 inch 7 Iron mowing deck 400X loader and a 3 pt. hitch snow blower. I have approx. 1225 hrs on the tractor and it leaks more than the NSA. The tractor has always been inside in a heated garage, except when I need the room to do a repair. Then it would only set out side during the daytime. The leak is with the aluminum forward end cover. I am going to repair my tractor some time in the early spring before the weather breaks but not now because of the possibility of snow. I have the John Deere maintenance CD. I am just interested on who else may have this problem. I am some what familiar as to what some of the root problems are but I just wanted to get some feed back from other owners that have this same problem. Did you repair it yourself? or did the John Deere dealer repair, How much did it cost etc. At a later date I will post some of my thoughts on this design which are not positive. Thanks in advance.
