Reverse stopped working

If you have oil coming out of the weep hole, I'd think it is either hydraulic fluid from the transmission side or engine oil from the other side. Generally it is hard to tell by looking at the oil, but you might try that. The engine oil on a diesel turns dark pretty fast, while the hytrans ought to stay clear to honey like.

Either way, a new tractor should not be leaking any appreciable amount from that weep hole. If you had 3-5 oz, a half a cup of oil, a dealer should see this tractor. I'd probably call the dealer, and he will likely say to just keep an eye on it and it can be looked at during the next service.

Warranty does not cover hauling the tractor.

Good work from the TBN team here on getting your forward and reverse going again and your water in fuel problem solved.

Any way you happened to leave your hyd remote engaged for a good while? Very common to happen since its a detent remote and has to be put back into neutral manually.... iv seen to many times someone either bumps it and dosnt realize the tractor engine dragging... it can heat up every seal in the tractor and cause them to go out and leak oil places it shouldn't... I may have already mentioned this I remember a thread just like this a good while ago hope not the same one lol.

You referring to rear remote lever? If so, no, it stays in neutral. But tomorrow makes a week since I dropped it off at dealer. Hopefully I get word soon.

Okay, so I got the tractor back today. They replaced the whole HST all covered under warranty. Dealer said inside there a defective flange where it meets the gasket, thingymabobber, was leaking. Said they could have repaired it, but since it was warranty, they just replaced the whole HST. Also with the water in fuel light scenario, the wiring was kinda chewed up, so they replaced it and all is good to go. They also did the most recent flash/update. Everything seems fine, but only drove it onto trailer as of now.

I was able to get it running, so I just put her on the trailer and took her in. I was questioning transport when I thought she might be dead in the water. It's all good!
