Looking for some advise and help troubleshooting. Have a b2400HSD with 423 hours. Lost loader, 3pt and forward / reverse movement all at once. Shut machine off, let rest for 30 min and was able to limp machine back to garage in L gear range.
Spent next week looking into problem and best i can figure it could be an issue in either the hydraulic pump, value or clog or (dare i say) hydro transmission. Detached weight box and loader attachment to try and isolate if loader valves were to blame. No change. Further drained hydro, replaced hydro fluid, filter and removed & cleaned screen. Hydro fluid was dark although didn't smell burnt. Was some metal shavings in fluid when drained and on screen. Always use OEM Kubota parts & fluids. Issue improved slightly (5-10%) but was no magic bullet. After oil change (and letting run) took for a test in driveway. When in H, and depressing forward or back, engine bogged as if under very heavy load.
At this point, can engage transmission, hear a whine when clutch is out. When try to move forward or back, i get very little response, jerks a bit unpredictably and can feel slight to moderate periodic pulsating in the pedal. Pedal does not return to neutral position.
Any initial thoughts? Next step will be to pick up hydraulic pressure test and or send to dealer to diagnose. Appreciate your thoughts. Thanks
