I had the temperature sensor go bad on mine last year. The fan wouldn't come on and it did over heat and when it does an alarm goes off. It did not boil over or smoke or anything even through the alarm was going off.

I am still waiting to hear from Messicks. I think maybe I will call them next week.

Call them up! Be proactive. Some dealers are lazy, some are just no good. And in my case the ownership of the dealership has changed hands 3 times in 3 years. At least now it's with Messicks and I know they will take care of things.

aurthuritis, I have a feeling that this guy called the hubs ball joints and it's probably the same thing that you all heard about ages ago and I am just finding out. Kubota has sent me notices prior to this, like when they put the rubber flap over the engine under the bed, so I don't know why...

Nothing was said about the hubs and the person calling from Messicks was just the rental equipment manager who was given the task of locating the machine I bought. He told me someone from the service department would be contacting me in the next few weeks.

I got a call today from my dealer about a recall on replacing the rear ball joints on the 2014 X1100C? Odd there are different recalls and the dealers are calling. No letter in the mail. My dealer is now Messicks since the dealer I bought it from has now gone and Messicks bought out the person...

32 hours since hose changes, not one single leak of antifreeze! Those hoses are bad from the start. Not even a minor leak, antifreeze level has stayed exactly the same. And now that the fan runs regularly I realize that sensor was bad from the beginning. It ran intermittently until it wouldn't...

I went and looked and unfortunately I didn't record the hours when I traded the 900 in. But they gave me 6 grand for it. The Kawasaki before that I sent to auction because it had over 9000 hours on it and it still brought $650 with 4 flat tires and missing parts. 2 years and 8 months on this...

I want to wish each and everyone of you a Merry Christmas and a safe one if you have to travel. This is one of the best forums on the web and I am a member of a few. Never any flaming or nastiness, just really nice, honest people! Thank you all for giving your time. HUGS!

OMG I need that!!!

Oh, and some of that remember is because I wanted different clamps and all new hoses on every hose on that machine! There is not one single piece of original rubber on the whole thing. Now let's see if it leaks!

Machine is back. It has never sounded so good or run as well. I love my John Deere dealer. After George went through the list I ask him if there were things on there that he would say that could be skipped and he said there were but there were also things that didn't make sense because some 700...

yep, I hit 700 hours and 2 years at the same time. Actually it's 2 years and a few months.

there's the difference, I do the two year. Air filters are cheap in comparison to what can happen.

I don't have the manual right now. I am using my Deere dealership to do the work and I let them have my shop manual and the owners manual with the list in it.

700 hour service stuff is what ran the bill up... Front brake seals--592.52 Master cylinder seals--235.71 Rear brake seals--107.48 Replace fuel system hoses--181.91 Replace hydraulic tank fluid--211.67 All cooling system hoses--743.07 $2,072.36 because of the leaks I am having them replace the...

You know what you might do! Since you haven't purchased the machine yet, have the dealer take the manual and calculate for you each service, starting with the break in at 50 hours. But then have them do the major ones that you wouldn't do yourself. Skip just plain old oil changes unless you are...

700 hour service. The repairs were $97. Look very carefully at the manual for what has to be replaced on the machine at what hours. Mine is an older machine, but if I'd known the upkeep on it (not counting several thousand I've had to do in repairs) I wouldn't have bought it.

Am I the first to hit 700 hours? I had not looked at the list of what Kubota says should be replaced. Now I am astonished. I had a few other issues (overheating issue) other then normal service (oil change, etc.) plus what's on the 700 hour list to be replaced. $3700.00! what the heck!?! The...

Yep, I haven't done it yet so I can't swear that it will swivel out or if you have to detach the bottom too. I used the little loader tractor to hold it up when I repaired the other one. But I needed to get it out that way because it was wedged into the fan shroud.
