Oil & Fuel Engine Oil

[Taiser]

Did you prefill the new filter before putting it on, that may explain the drop? Since it's fairly new and you don't report any leaks or burning just fill it back to the full mark, run it a few minutes, check it again then just keep an eye on it for the next couple of weeks, I'm sure it's fine!

Oh no, it is not the case. I have changed the oil already myself. All was good. It was I guess 50-60 hours since I checked it. My dealer has told me to check the bell housing, there is a drain under there that he showed me. This weekend I will check to see if oil comes out. If it does he says it may be the crank shaft seal.

I check my engine oil and hydraulic oil with every use. It takes me about one minute.

That is going to be my rule for now on. My dealer is contacting Kubota next week to see if there may be some info on what may be happening. The dealer said just to keep and eye on it for now.

If it is time, change the fluids, and check fluids with every use. Nice that you caught it before real damage!
