I dont know why you are constantly posting about this machine..... Isnt it away getting sorted?. Seems like you should throttle back and give the dealership a chance to look at it before hanging it out to dry.

we have had a 150r on hire to cart through harvest - its utterly gutless and has really struggled just pulling a trailer about

feels desperately plasticity inside as well, no feel of any quality or robustness at all. If JD want to try and maintain the illusion of premium brand they really had better up their game in that respect IMO the old JD's were much better

Well... it could even have the hydraulic pump staying in stroke etc. It needs to be checked over.. hydraulics, brakes, etc etc.. a dtac case started to push forward and let deere know there is a problem... for a start. I hope its happening. If not.... oh!.

He'll be posting about it because he'll be getting frustrated that the machine isn't up to doing what it should be. I've known yorkie for a number of yrs and used to work with him many moons ago. He's a top operator, very conscientious and likes to get on! If the new motor is covering the ground slower than his old one, then he'll be chewing his tail. I know for a fact that the instruction manual will have been read cover to cover and different settings will have been tried. As for someone saying just drive it. The boss paid for it. He's not that type of bloke. Drivers that are happy aslong as they can see the front wheels going around are two a penny. Good operators who can use their nouse and get the job done properly aren't.

I can fully understand this...I've pm'd him a little... but the dealership needs to be looking at this or at least communicating more to customer... its unfair really to shoot first and ask questions later. In my opinion...
