Just purchased a new T1530 and what a loud whine in the Hydro system when using it! Anyone else have this problem or know of this?
Is it doing something that didn't happen during your test drives of the tractor?

I have worked in the aircraft maintenance business for quite a while now. Our hydraulic systems whine as well. We use the whine as an additional safety feature to remind us when the hydraulics are in operation, so the whine on the tractor could be viewed as a helpful thing. It's all in how you look at it.
I talked to the dealer today about the whine in the hydro system again. They found out that the floor model also had that same load whine. They are now contacting the New holland rep. to find out some answers? Checked with some other New Holland dealers and they are also having this same complaint.
My Dealer told me to keep driving it until they get some answers.
I'll keep in touch and let you know the results.
Every JD hydro I've driven - including my current JD 110 TLB - whines! I wear foam ear plugs, too. I can still hear it..
If it EVER stops whining -- I will be VERY, VERY concerned!

PS a local farmer friend is trying to nail down a deal on a new, 1530 with FEL up here in Alaska. The price on the Boomer series stopped him in his tracks!
What kind of oil you using? I guess the key question is "how much whine is normal"...all Hydro's do it to some extent, some quieter then others.
