Oil & Fuel Dealship bad

[Green Acres Homestead]

Bought a new kubota L2502 tractor. Did two hours worth of work. I checked the transmission dipstick. The level was below the low level line. Pretty sure it is leaking. I previously had a lot of service trouble with the dealership. Peaved off.

Tomorrow when it opens they are going to here it maybe even tell them to come pick the tractor up and cancel my contract.

How old is it? How many hours only two?

Good luck with that

its normal to top off fluids after a few hours of use. a small tractor like this doesnt hold much. it is spread out into bucket lines, etc. just top it off.


if it was leaking you would see the puddles.

If you had previous problems with this dealership why did you purchase another item from them?

Like others have said not unusual to have to top off transmission on new tractor especially ones with small reservoir.

I have changed oil in mine 3 times since new and have had to add around quart to half gallon every time after operating for hour or so.

The oil is low and you're gonna take a tractor back? LOL.

Did you check it BEFORE you used it?
Can you park it over a tarp to find out where it is leaking?

Oh, good grief, another whiner so soon after Christmas.. Was too good to be true...lol Sounds to me like poor operator attitude.

Should be called “Bad Owner” lol. What does “ pretty sure it’s leaking” mean? It’s leaking or it’s not. A big oil puddle would mean it’s leaking. If nothing underneath….it needs topping up. It’s new and all fluid/oil levels could settle and NEED to be checked regularly from now until it’s replaced with a new tractor. Then start the cycle over again or hire someone to do the work for you…
Let us know what happens when you contact the dealer if you dare

I honestly doubt we’ll ever hear from this guy again…..
