TC33D info needed

Arkie,

I am looking at a TC33D. Drove one today and did not hear anything unusual. As a matter of fact I was pleased on how quiet it was for a deisel. (What little I know?)

Then I came home and found your posting. So are you still have that noise coming from your tranny?

Any other insights would be helpful.

Thanks,

Tim

Sorry about the late response.Yes,my 33D still makes the noise.It's more pronounced at idle after tractor is warmed up.I can still hear the noise up to about 2400 RPM. It has not affected the operation of the tractor,best i can tell. I went back to my dealer and test drove a TC29D and it made the same noise after warm up,although mine is a little bit louder.I traded a 1998 1725 2wd,gear,no FEL in for this tractor and what a difference there is in having 4WD and dif lock.(has already pulled me out of some tight spots).I love my TC33D and do not regret buying it.I did come close to buying a JD 4300,but stayed with the blue color due to dealer and possible service issues. I now have 36 hours on the tractor and have not had any trouble at all with it. Hope this helps. Arkie

Thanks for responding Arkie.

Does the dealer say that the noise is normal?

Tim,
I had the dealer come back and get my tractor the next day after delivery to check out noise. They ran the tractor for a couple of hours and said there were no unusual noises and that the noise that i was hearing was normal for this tractor with the hydro tranny.The owner of the dealership told me that he had his "best" mechanic look at it and explained the noise as normal due to the meshing relationship of the gears(gear chatter). The noise disappears whenever the clutch is depressed,at any rpm. TC33's,25's,29's are all excellent tractors. I did listen to a 40D and it did not make this noise,dealer said that they are a different "set up" than mine. The larger boomer was just to big for my needs. I have gotten feedback from other owners of tractors like mine on a different forum who said that their tractors made the same noise as mine and they have not had any trouble either,one had over 2000 hours on their tractor.
