Well, the dealer stepped up, took off both cylinders, and is having them rebuilt. If that does not solve it, off to the shop it goes for the valve. I learned a few things that may be of value (validated by Kubota service):
1) Loader bucket curl/dump performance can completely not function or become low performance based on the internal seals on the cylinders.
2) All of the TLB models, have three loaders that could have been part of the package. All three did/do ship with auto-leveling, which is integrated into the core loader control value via a mechanical linkage.
3) A new valve is $865, a superseded part from $649.
4) Bucket cylinders are very expensive at just over $1K each.
