That makes perfect sense! I expected it to move up to the "broken part" of the line but mine hasn't budged. . . Guess I will call the dealer today

The only trouble I have had is intermittently it will not stay in reverse. And that terrible gear whining noise.

I only hear the whining noise in reverse, are you seeing the same?

Mine does it all the time. Though in lower gears it's not as bad as it was brand new. I have got 68 hrs on it. In high 4 comin down the drive it sounds like the cops are chasing me.

How did you find out. What gives it away that we have it. Does your book list it as a tier 3.

What dose it do? I've noticed it when I dump the bucket.
To find out if you have it just lift your bucket up and dump but push it all the way to right just like you would when you push your bucket into float mode. Here is a description I have found online.
Regen is a "feature" of most modern FEL (Front End Loader) valves, it's on the Dump (joystick far right) circuit, and is also referred to as "Fast Dump". The reason it is nice to have is that without it, the weight of a filled bucket can actually "pull" the bucket down faster then the fluid can enter the other side of the cylinder, this will create a air pocket and give the bucket a "floppy" feeling until the joystick is held in the dump mode a few seconds to refill the cylinder pushing the air past the seals. So we add "regen" or "regenerative" function to the valve.
Regen solves this problem by actually filling both sides of the cylinder at the same time with hydraulic fluid. But how will that work you might ask? Well, because there is more volume on the side of the cylinder that extends it since the rod is taking up space in the other side, it "overpowers" the rod side and lets the cylinder extend-thereby dumping the bucket. So since now both sides of the cylinder are "pressurized", the air pocket can not develop, eliminating the "floppy" bucket syndrome. One other added bonus is that the bucket actually dumps faster due to the higher flow rate required to do all this, that's why it's referred to as "fast dump" sometimes.
So, now you may be asking 典his is cool and all that, but why do I need to know about it? The answer to that is simple, if you ever try to run a snow plow with two SA (single acting) cylinders, or a cylinder that drives a chute rotator on a snowblower you will soon find out that they won稚 work if you push the joystick to far right in the regen mode. The plow won稚 work because since both lines are pressurized-both cylinders will be trying to extend at the same time binding everything up. The rotator won稚 work because there is no weight pushing the cylinder closed like there is on the loader.
On most, if not all John Deere tractors there is a 斗ockout the limits how far the joystick travels to the right to keep it out of the regen mode.

Wow when you said regen I thought pollution control. That's one reason I went with this tractor, teir 3 engine.
I have noticed the floppy bucket and sometimes backdragging the bucket almost uncurls. One time I got off the tractor to make sure I had the bucket on right. Right now it's in the 60's and low humidity which is odd for Va. in August. I think I need to leave work rite now and go check on this. Where did you find the info.

I was looking up my loader valve (prince) website to see if this was normal or not. Prince Hydraulics > Products > Hydraulic Valves > Loader > Series 11 GPM
Then i starting looking uo about regen mode.
