Morning guys,, I do have a question about my bx2360, and this about the hydraulic whine its pretty loud, it is most notciable when you traming around, with the mower and motor noise you cant hear it other wise while your mowing, the oil is right and she runs like a raped date but the whine bothers me. None of the other brands I have owned have had this whine,,sooooo Im wondering is it something I should be concerned with or is it a normal sound,, the stealer says they all sound like that,,, I duno so I is axin

Some folks claim that Kubota SUDT is the answer for whine in the BX series.

It is an awfully expensive experiment but next time your hydraulic fluid is changed out you might give it a try. The BX transmission doesn't really use that much oil compared to others and the extra price might be worth the SUDT if the whine is bothersome enough to post a question about it.

My father-in-law has one that has a definite whine to it. I've checked all fluids and theyre full.

On his, it's almost like it's being strained under pressure or something. Seems to operate ok, but,..............
