Brand new 2538 pops out of gear. Dealer has had it for a month.

i don't want to give the dealer to hard of time- But...

Would it have been asking to much to at least insulate painted surfaces from concrete and each other with some shop towels -or even cardboard?

and that shaft laying on the concrete with what appears to be machined ends... I would have been apoplectic.


I understand that it could be a small dealer with the mechanic doing his best but...

probably wouldn't have posted this but just happened to see a new Mahindra commercial where a John Deere owner gets so ticked off that he throws his hat in frustration and they cut to a scene of a new Mahindra.

any way it sounds like a thrust issue with the gears/ shaft Hope they check the installed clearances closely as Dave alluded to- Hope they get your tractor back together in perfect working order and condition POST-HASTE

Those Mahindra picts are too depressing. So, here is a picture of ole' Ollie who is keeping everything in order. When I got the Mahindra, I got a few people wanting to buy Ollie. I'm sure glad I didn't sell. One offer was pretty tempting at 4500.00. I might just keep Ollie forever.

Now there is a tractor with character. I'd have a hard time parting with Ollie.

That's a tease...info?

I'd say he's surely due a new one. Mahindra should pick up the pieces, study them and find out what went wrong so it doesn't happen again. This is the value of making sure you pick a good dealer.

You wouldn't? LOL

It is a brand new tractor. Even Armor-All on the tires. I'd love to know the story on the old one, but then again, maybe I don't. Anyway, I do feel bad for the dealer and hope Mahindra makes it right with him. I'm gonna hook this thing to the bush hog and start seating these new piston rings in.
