    B3350 dpf issues

    So I read up on that very same thing. I'm a software engineer by trade and contemplated making some changes if I ended up stuck with the 3350. But then you get into the whole JD situation of which I'm unsure if Kubota follows the same practice. The practice of preventing owners from modifying...

    B3350 dpf issues

    My dealer made good and set me up in an L3301. I'm very happy to have a working tractor. However over the past weeks i've decided I need to do full write up on this issue. Especially on how Kubota corporate handled this situation so poorly. I don't think this is the place for names and such but...

    Considering up-sizing from JD1023 to Kubota B3550

    tommott77 just to give you my experience the b3350, it really isn't worth the gamble. If it wasn't for the DPF issues it would be a great tractor. I loved the power and agility. Most don't experience the issues until about 140+ hours. Here's a short list of the issues so you don't need to scour...

    Replacing b3350

    HI All, I've been the unfortunate owner of a b3350su (DPF Issues) and it looks like after a bit of navigating the Kubota corporate bureaucracy i'll be getting a new unit. It sounds like and I'm waiting for clarification here. But I'll be able to spend up to what I paid for it. The most likely...

    B3350 dpf issues

    Thanks @sheepfarmer. Thats good to hear on the l3560. I wouldn't mind that at all. I'm torn at the fact that I know my options will likely be a b2560 or an L series. But I'm also not looking forward to having to pay the difference just to get the HP I need around the property. I had planned to...

    B3350 dpf issues

    @spanky123 I hope so as well. I love the size of the b3350. Thats why I wanted it to begin with. Smaller frame and plenty of hp. I can get in and out of just about anywhere I need to with it.

    B3350 dpf issues

    @sheepfarmer I parked because I had other obligations that I needed to get on to. Thats one of the main issues with this tractor. I shouldn't be scared to use it. Update time. Since I last left off after getting the tractor back from the dealership I was able to do about 5 hours of work before...

    B3350 dpf issues

    Update time. TL:DR: After going back to the dealer ship for 3 more weeks. Kubota reps flying out to double check updates. Tractor still has DPF issues. The dealership I purchased from is Honda Kubota of issaquah. The head mechanic there has been great. I think genuinely wants to solve this...

    B3350 dpf issues

    @sheepfarmer I turn the key to the glow plugs pop on and wait about 60 seconds before attempting to fire. It has been in the teens and maybe I should be waiting longer? I've always been told the longer you hold the glow plug the quicker they quicker they go out. @madmax31 I am pretty 99% you're...

    B3350 dpf issues

    I've had my b3350 back for about 2 weeks now. We've had about 12 inches of snow since then. I was going to wait to report back after next regen cycle. The 3350SU has plenty of power but cannot recommend it at this time. As I right this my tractor took a considerable time to start this morning...

    B3350 dpf issues

    During the summer I completed one auto regen and one parked regen. I throttled up to 2500 and continued to clear a field. The auto regen completed successfully in about 30 minutes. After about 20-30 hours of further use the regen light lit up again. This time I parked. throttled to idle and...

    B3350 dpf issues

    Hi Everyone, TL;DR: My 3350su has been great but have experienced the issues discussed at length in this thread as well. Dealer is replacing the thermostat and doing two required updates from Kubota on the issue. Will keep this updated. Bought my Kubota 3350SU early spring. It was a trade in...
