Hello all!

Last year I traded my BX1860 for a 2680. Love it!

But, when mowing and doing a turn around (fairly sharp, but not pinned) I can feel grinding through the steering wheel.

4wd is off. Fluid is fine.

I never felt this on my 1860. The amount of vibration/grinding varies a little with speed, turn sharpness, etc.

Is this something I should worry about, or normal?

Are you all the way to the stops, turning the maximum it will allow? (Not sure what pinned means...) If you back off the sharpness of the turn just a hair does it go away? Does it do this turning both left and right? Possible that the front tire is rubbing against something when turning sharply?

Both tires at correct pressure? I suggest putting it on jackstands and turning wheels by hand to see if you can feel it. Does it do it more when turning left, right, both? I'd give dealer a call, should be under warranty .
