Did they actually fix that?

Unless you are seeing something that I am not there is nothing published on this bottle that states it's fully synthetic.

Please take a picture and post it.

Not saying you're wrong but please provide documented proof of what you're saying.

I could be wrong but my bet is that fluid would look about the same if he changed it again at 100 hours. SUDT2 is a semi-synthetic oil so it can go much longer than conventional/dino oil.

Here's my two cents: That tractor should not have a clutch slipping at 300 hours. There's either a defect or the person you purchased it from misused it. How old is this tractor?

I am starting this thread as an addendum to a discussion that took place on this thread here: https://www.orangetractortalks.com/forums/threads/kubota-response-to-questions.50121/ starting with post #18. After a lot of research and study I feel that this discussion deserves it's own thread now...

Guys I just figured out why Kubota is requiring all the hoses under the hood to be replaced in 2 to 4 years. I had a hunch this morning and it turned out to be right. The answer to this mystery can be found on page 7 and 14 of the Owner's Warranty Information Guide. I have uploaded a highlighted...

Thanks for posting this. So I took my time to study all the pictures and read the thread that you provided and I was surprised to find out that all those lines were fuel lines. I was under the impression this whole time that they were electrical lines. Every day I learn something new here. So...

So why not choose different language such as "Service As Required" instead of "Replace Regardless Of Condition" ?

Sounds about right 😄

Thanks for sharing your experience Old_Paint. Do you think the manual for the MX series is wrong also about which filter is which?

You make a lot of valid points but aren't the fuel lines metal tubing?

Correct me if I am wrong but it is my understanding that the fuel lines are steel tubing.

The way I see it is the 2038R compares to the 3901 in frame size and horsepower. I agree that they are not direct comparisons because the standard L series tractors are economy tractors and the R series tractors are deluxe models in Deere's lineup. Maybe the LX 3310 is a better comparison since...

That was one of the things on the list. According to the maintenance schedule, Kubota wants you to replace the fuel line every 4 years regardless of condition. Why??? And when you ask them why they don't have an answer.

This may be a little off topic but does anyone know who makes the hydraulic pump and wheel motors for my MX series tractor? I know Deere uses Danfoss but who does Kubota use??

I would be interested to know why you think this.

Kubota was calling for the replacement of a lot of miscellaneous parts under the hood in 2 to 4 years regardless of condition which should of been labeled "Service As Required" . When I questioned why the parts should be replaced if there was no sign of deterioration the National Customer...

This is where I think the Deere 2038R beats Kubota in this class and size of tractor. However Kubota runs circles around Deere in the large compact tractor class.
