My RTV was at the dealer looking into why it is creeping backwards, and I ask them to check for service bullitins about oil leak and he showed me a list of VIN's that were involved in the recall. My 1100 was not on the list and I appear to have no issues at this time. I will try to get the list on Vin's involved and get them posted. Meanwhile check with your dealer! Still no work lights for front or rear. Come on Kubota.............Have fun RTVing.........
 
I had my oil line on my 1100start leaking on me. I ended up replacing it with a 45.00 hydraulic hose from NAPA. I posted some pics of this on TBN
 
Post a link on the pics please >>>></P>


Did you contact your dealer ? Was it the oilline itself, or connector leaking ?</P>
 
Here is a picture of where it failed. This was the line going to the engine from the remote oil filter. This happened on a Sat.afternoon and I wanted to use it on Sunday so I just purchased a hose from a local hydraulic hose shop. My dealer did not have the part in stock so I would have to wait another 3-4 days before I could even use it.</P>

Thanks for the photo, at least it is a crimping problem on the connector. Not to make light of the problem, because this just means it could happen on any other hydraulicconnector in the system.Looks like a QC problem, maybe thehydraulic hoses are out sourced. In my opinion, it will be difficultto say this happened on a particular range ofVIN numbers. Also, I am anxious to seehow and if Kubota responses to this problem. Just replacing the hose fixes the hose but not necessary the problem.</P>
