New Holland Tractor problems

[paul]

Some dealers are better than others, doesn’t really matter the color you have it’s just a reflection of upper management….

I would take it to the Case dealer.

I’m lucky to have an independent fixer not very far from me that does good work on any color tractor, so that would be where I would go.

Here the green guys don’t want to talk to you unless you are leasing over a million dollars of stuff from them, I went to a green dealer 50 miles away and they were pleasant, helpful, spent time to sell me a $50 item.

The blue guys one is rude management but has stuff and one nice parts guy, the other blue is farther away nice people but doesn’t stock as much.

People run down Gleaner a lot for not having any dealers or parts; I have 3 imdepenebt Gleaner dealers all less than an hour from me and can often find parts on the shelf for my 40 year old combine while my green friends are struggling to find parts for their 25 year old machines…

Just have to find the right support people around you and use them, it sounds like the Case place is the one.

Since the original post is from 2019, i figure the tractor is fixed or sold or wore out by now.

Oh, missed that! Ha. I forget the old thread creep here.

They'd be pretty nice tractors if we only had some competent dealers.

Whomever makes the Valtra will probably be the next major player in the USA in the coming years.

But they are so loaded with pollution garbage I don't understand how farmers can afford to fix the stuff with crop prices the way they are.

Trade it in on a Kubota

Any one know anything about a T4.75 New Holland Tractor? I have one that I purchased 5 years ago(2250 hours) and for the second year in a row has loose transmission-rear end bolts resulting in leaking transmission oil, et al.. The unit has a cab, 4wd and a loader on it. Use it in the winter time to feed big round bales. I'm thinking that the chassis is just not stiff enough to keep from twisting when going over some rather rough/rutty frozen ground. I told the New Holland dealer that the transmission oil was leaking again and what he thought we might do differently this time around. His response was rather curt and somewhat disturbing... " fix it right this time.....take the cab off.. split the tractor, tighten the top bolts as well, etc"...... like it was my decision to not remove the cab in the first place!!! Talked to my local Case/NH dealer as the Case/IH 75c is the same tractor. They gave me a somewhat different take on what to do and it doesn't include removing the cab entirely... and it involves replacing the gasket ...discovered that the NH dealer didn't replace the gasket.. just tightened the bolts.. but not the top ones... I'll probably get it repaired at the Case/IH dealer.. as they diagnosed an air conditioning problem that was not fixed last spring as well...... but what about the long term prospects? I'm afraid the chassis will twist and loosen the bolts again after a few years. Or maybe, the bolts were not torqued properly during original assembly.

Ideas? Thanks..

Hopefully not wore out! These tractors aren’t that old. It’s a nice tractor other than bolts loosening. 7-8k for dealer repair with no guarantee of it not recurring. Keep or sell I will have to fix it. Only keep if i think fix will last!
