    Road Dust Infiltrating Cab 2020 X1100C Kubota

    Has anyone found a small commercial weather-stripping with an adhesive backing to supplement the Kubota factory door seals? We're dry and dusty so the dust is seeping through the openings around the door seals. I'm hoping to add to what Kubota put in place to stop it. The interior of my cab...

    X1100C AC & Front Fan Cycles too Often

    My Kubota RTV cycles the AC compressor and front cooling fan very frequently (approximately every 8-10 seconds). It seems to me this would shorten the life of the AC compressor clutch and the front cooling fan. I replaced the temperature sensor in the thermostat housing plus the fan relay under...

    Problem w/2020 X1100C

    The Receiver/Dryer with High-Low switch unit was replaced. It made no difference in the rapid cycling. The Kubota rep said that is normal behavior for this unit. This rapid recycling of the AC compressor and front fan will reduce the life of the compressor and fan motor. It will probably last...

    Problem w/2020 X1100C

    My X1100C with 100 hours on it has a problem: when I turn the air-conditioner on, within just a few minutes the front fan begins to turn on and off, cycling every few seconds. The AC cools great; low and high pressures are good. The receiver dryer sight glass shows coolant level is okay. I...

    RTV 900 Rear Mud Flaps

    Purchased some 1/4" x 2' x 4' recycled rubber mat material from Tractor Supply. Fabricated the 2 sets of flaps and installed. Hopefully they will be better than the factory's. I don't know how long the recycled rubber material will last. Time will tell. As you can see in the photos, it...

    Rear Tire Mud Flaps

    I need to replace the front and rear mud flaps on the rear tires on my 2008 RTV900. I am looking for a set of aftermarket flaps that are more durable than the ones Kubota put on my RTV900 at the factory. Any suggestions and sources would be appreciated.

    Moving Cattle with an RTV 900

    Shifting Problems--RTV 900 w/60 hrs

    Occasionally I have a problem when I try to shift from forward to reverse while on a slight upward incline. It makes no difference what I do: push on the brake and pull the relief valve knob on the dash, turn the steering wheel, or press the accelerator slightly. The only way I can get it to...

    New2008 RTV 900: I completed all the fluid andfilter changes, greasing, and other checks as Kubota recommended. Everything went smooth until I checked the screen in the muffler. It was completely sealed with black soot residue. Is this normal???? What other options are available--other than...
