The front windscreen on my 6125r is driving me nuts with it's squeaking, tried tightening it to the point I fear the glass would almost crack which slightly reduced it for about 5 mins , so next I released each mount and sprayed penetrating oil on the rubber and refitted , seemed to work for a few days but now it's doing it again . I seem to remember this was something of a known issue with this on the 20 series and wondered if anyone can remember what the fix was ?

Are these the ones that are exploding at the moment even on new tractors, heard of one near here that it happened to that was only a few weeks old

So is the squeak not coming from the rubber to glass contact but the actual hinge itself , I put wd40 between the rubber and glass but nothing on the actual hinge , will give that a go in the morning and if it doesn't work will order some new hinges

Yes it’s the pins in the hinge that makes the noise
