Yes. All hydo systems will do this to some extent. Some faster than others.

The 3PH and loader on my BX2000 "leak-down" over time. Depending on the weight attached it make take anywhere from a few hours to several days. I think that is normal, at least for Kubota. A friend of mine has a 7800 and it does the same thing.
