Has anyone else noticed a plastic burning/melting smell from the plastic covers just below the exhaust, I’m guessing all the ad blue re gen is under there. the plastic on the outside is getting very very hot🤦‍♂️🔥🔥

We’ve not had any mechanical issues to be fair too them… just never ending software/ electrical issues… gets a bit tedious when it’s like playing roulette weather it’s goi t too start today or you park up end it’s a mystery if it’s going too move again that day… or you go carting grass and get a load on too sit in the clamp for 20 minutes trying too get the spool valves too work 😂

only just got to do bits with ours but starting to try and get my head round the screen, have noticed a few things like speed steer turns it’s self off and won’t re engage. Or the headland management some times forgets part of the sequence. 🤦‍♂️ But not to worry my dealer has rung up to tell me he can see it’s ready for a service using the the new fancy telemetry, but when they come they won’t have a clue what’s wrong with it.
