    John Deere 5100m shuttle control

    Anyone have any idea as to a fault developed. The forward reverse shuttle does not work unless you press clutch pedal. In other words it won’t shuttle unless you use clutch at same time. Also if in the past I was to change gear or something too fast it would beep - often when wanting to move...

    Wondering if anyone can help. I have a JD 5100M and middle of three spool valve levers in the cab appears to be out of adjustment.

    Triffitt trailer brakes..

    Not my trailer but... Triffitt 2008 32foot straw trailer with oil brakes and the brakes keep sticking slightly on. I think 2 firms have serviced the brakes and although works fine for a while the brakes start to stick after a while. You can of course knock the levers back in front of the rams...

    John Deere 5100M fuel problem.

    Bought a 15 plate ex demo JD 5100M (and loader) with 250hrs on nearly 2 years ago. All went well until last winter when we got some frosts. Started to light an error on dashboard which turned out to be fuel low pressure. It eventually stopped and couldn't get it going again. Dealer came out and...

    Evening all. Had a prob today with diesel waxing in both my tractors, a 2yo John Deere and an older Ford 4600.

    Massey 8690 flashing 4wd light

    Pretty much as in title. 8690 dyna-vt without any warning the 4wd light on dash is flashing and isn't going into 4wd. Not my tractor but I drive it. Haven't had time to look through manual yet but could it be something simple like a fuse? Any advice appreciated. Thanks.

    Isuzu DPF issues again

    DPF filter has been regenerating every 30 to 40 miles for the last 6 months. I've had the filter taken off and cleaned with DPF cleaning foam and the EGR checked and cleaned. But still the damned thing regenerates every 30 miles give or take. Doesn't take long to regenerate and oil level doesn't...
