It is Low Conversion Efficiency, says to take to dealer
Did you ever resolve the issue. What did the dealer do to fix the error? I've now taken my 2017 SVL95 2S (500hrs) in 4 different times, to 2 different dealers and no one can fix the error. The last 2 visits they replaced a "leaky def injector", which did nothing to fix the error and yes twice within a month because the replacement injector was leaking I guess.
Huffman it might be a while before someone logs on that can help, there aren't a lot of SVL owners on the forum, and it might take one of the Kubota techs to make some suggestions. Keep checking back.
It is not getting enough good quality DEF injected so either the fluid is poor quality, the scr injector is faulty or the NOX sensors are faulty. It is a dealer problem and there is 5 years warranty on it! ( unless the problem is contaminated or poor quality DEF!)
Same issue E:9518 with flashing red def symbol and exclamation triangle. Shut machine down. Wait for the pumps to cycle after engine off. Here a “click” like a relay drop out. Restart machine and warning gone.. for 18-20minutes (.3 hrs) RPM stay at 2480. Machine functions as it should. Went to a dealer. Told me to run it for 30-45 minutes to burn it off. No change. I’m afraid if they work on it will just exchange expense parts without any understanding of what’s wrong. 525 hrs. Otherwise a great machine Any thoughts appreciated. Calling a buddy that used to sell Kubota tomorrow to see if he has advice thx
There are reports of DEF issues with the SVL95's. It is my understanding that Kubota is going to take care of them once they have a permanent solution for these issues. In the mean time, take it in, have them repair whatever is wrong (within emission warranty)-and make sure to get a copy of the warranty repair order and keep it for your records.
I have seen sometimes (other equipment) when the injector will leak, def wicks up the harness, gets into the ECU and the fix is to replace the injector, entire wiring harness, and ECU--and on that one, it's just temporary because the "new" parts are identical to the old; since there isn't a fix for that one. It isn't isolated to Kubota only, by the way. There's other brands having def issues too.

Something about urea and deionized water that makes good fertilizer but for emissions, not so much. I spray it on my hay fields between cuts, the old, out of date stuff.
I talked with 2 different dealers and decided to drain def tank and replace fluid. I replaced it initially with just enough to have one bar on the meter. Red codes initially returned at start up. Shut it off. Let it cycle. Restart and cleared. Low def warning came on. Filled to half. Warning gone. We ran it 6+ hours yesterday in storm cleanup without shutting it down. Ran thru normal regen. 9518 cleared. Just posting if others have same issue. Not sure my sequence was significant. My problem is I don’t use it enough to run thru def fluid and it seems to have decomposed to cause the warning.
