I try to avoid lawyers whenever possible, but in this case I would be happy to act as a witness.. Oh well, it certainly isnt worth the time to pursue it myself, so I will hopefully get a few more years out of it and sell it to someone with a flat yardit should be fine for that! Ive read several forums concerning the disappointing K46 transaxle on the web. Thanks for your notes on the transmission issue. Do I need to change the tranny fluid.

Ive looked at many tractors in the under $3000 range and find them basically all about the same, except for paint. Still the same. I have an LT160 drive belt blew, replaced it and noticed the fan above the trans was folding under the belt. Not my best move. Ridges.

They have to many lawyers to beat them in court and a class action will last years but the A.G., if you have enough people (at least well over 1,ooo) sending in their notarized complaints about John Deere then he can order a recall or reimbursement or file charges against them. Bought the D170 in May 2017. The mechanic at my local john deere dealer told me that the transmission only lasts three to five years and that the 100, 110, and the 125 are the cheapest ones made, and he steers people away from them. The Cubs hydro grunts and groans (loud!) thanks. I would have been bummed had replacing the belt solved the problem! I never heard another word.

Contact local supplier regarding tanks larger than 20 pounds. DO NOT pour antifreeze into the self-service motor oil recycling tanks. My oil really did not look bad, but I think the 350 hours of heat had probably ruined the viscosity to the extent that, coupled with the worn components, I had no pulling power. Anyone out there that does not have the Mechanical ability or just does not want to fool with the install I would be willing for a few $100 bucks or so.

The guy that was selling it had a 130 also for sale with two transaxles that were toast, hence the interest in the k46. I changed the transmission fluid in my LA120 (which has a T40 transaxle) after debating for a long time if it was time to ditch JD.

I have been thinking of ordering the upgrade K66 kit but its hard to spend $1,500.00 on the kit when I paid $2,100.00 for the mower new. It has been serviced by John Deere every year I have owned it (which by now I could have a nice Zero Turn for the cost of the oil changes/services). Thank you all for this information, too bad know this sooner. Like most others, I wish I had found a site like this BEFORE I spent big money on a John Deere. I called him a few times to ask questions and each time, he was there for me. Its never been abused, towed anything, pushed anything, or mowed hils.

I got the Snow blower for it so i can do my driveways what a POJ it turned out to be!

I told him I was going to buy a new Cub Cadet, he asked me where the dealer was HA HA John Deere people are catching on to your junk. It is doing the same thing that everyone else is complaining about . However, I got lucky and found an old style push-down door lock happened to be 3/8 in dia. It runs good but has no power to go up small inclines. Thanks, Count me in if there is a class action suit. Im very please with the result as well as my interfaces with Roger.

Now the spindle bearings are shot and until I can get to them Im getting quite a rough ride with all the vibration. and Ive gone through my second tranny. Changing the transmission fluid and installing new fluid may indeed fix your problem! So I dont know where my upgrade stands at this point. Check out your potential Cub Cadet very carefully before you pull your credit card. May be taken to either theI-66 Transfer Stationor I-95 Landfill Complex. Worked great until about 90 hours. Tuff Torq said, they have NO PLANS on manufacturing any more. It Seems that John Deere does not provide the pre-cut Axle Keys for some of their axles installed in JD, or Scotts tractors. Going to see what Craftsman has to offerand see if theyll haul off the JD JUNK. You may discover its the same animal with a different coat. I paid $2.200 for the entire machine?? Im sending you his email address. I have primarily used it to mow acres of 6-8 foot weeds and sparse weeds in high-dust areas. The performance did NOT improve, although I did not take the transmission apart and look at the filter. Not much. Well Im glad to see Im not alone. Small quantities may be bagged and disposed of in regular trash. Ive replaced a spindle, a belt and pulleys. Luckily only a portion of my 2 acres is hilly, but I have had to stop mowing the hill because I can not make the hill. From looking at published specifications the JD 1332 PE looked like a suitable buy for our very large driveway, after reading the descriptions of your problems and the response from JD Ill be looking for an alternative. What a disappointment. I was not happy with that and started my search. It climbs like a mountain goat. 42 lightning sno-blower, in the winter. If you have a boat, use it as an anchorit might catch on? I will NOT be buying any john deere product any time soon. When the K66 upgrades first started, about eighteen months ago, there were about 500 surplus K66 transaxles available on the market for around $200. I wish I had purchased one of these instead of my John Deere L series! Definitly with everyone on a lawsuite. Please add me to the petition. The install of the K-66 Kit into my S2548 was great. Now at 335. I have a LA 175 with 80 hrs. The performance is absolutely amazing. I bought it new and thought I was getting a good quality mower. I have the same problem with my john deere, as everyone else, dies when climbing a hill and if i leave it set for an hour it may work but not always, so sorry in trusted the name. To do this, divide the cubic yards by the bag yield. Mark the Transaxle Case. Keep shifting the transmission from side to side to get out all oil stuck between the inner crevices.

Local dealer wont return my phone calls, and corporate throws it back to the local dealer. The top pulley has stripped the spline teeth off the shaft. Tuff Torq is just as guilty. John Deere sent out their rep. ( a Mr. Smith) who called twice (NO NAME/NO NUMBER) came out to look and take pictures of our lawn mower. I recently also read a blog concerning the overpowering of the Lawn Tractors with higher horse power motors to compensate for bigger decks and transmission issues. Our high quality asphalt product solutions have been developed to be the ideal choice for a wide range of asphalt surface applications, from major civil engineering projects to domestic driveways and footpaths. At first I thought it was the belt (advice of the local JD dealer), so I gutted it out till spring, then changed the belt. Replaced the fluid with new hydraulic fluid from Walmart. Again, there was no contact and we were asked via email again that if no contact had been made by the manager to call him ourselves. the lawyers !!!! I got the next to the last upgrade kit Roger had and could not be more pleased. Well, my x300 is less than a year old, only 16 hours on it, and it would not move in reverse. Worked better for short period of time but did not last. We are currently selling about five kits per week and that rate is getting faster as the supply gets lower and the grass gets greener. Kells. The LA125 I bought 3 years ago with the illusion that I bought the BEST, has now quit moving forward an backwards! We have sold out of all our initial supply of 150 K66 transaxle kits. We also have worked out the problem with the X300 reverse logic situation. it work good should last long time that what i did on my tractor i use it for pulling heavy loads all year long i even pull over 1000 pounds of wood up hills no problems several times. I believe I would not have been able to do it without the k66 upgrade.. Best Regards, Roger. But when the number of comments Im seeing, and having experience the exact same problem, you can only conclude the products are defective. I hate my John Deere D170. it appears everything but the highrange is working. Last fall I purchased the K46 rebuild kit directly from Tuff Torq. Being somewhat mechanically knowledgeable I told her it was poor welds and cheap metal so what she said in essence was to bad. Thnx!!! I bought it because it was a JD and because it was made, or should I say assembled in my home state of TN. It also is parked in my garage and is no help to me. The bottom line is: Should I pay JD to replace the K46 (Im guessing at around $500-$700, or but a K66 Upgrade for around $1500? Containing pesticides or herbicides, take to a Household Hazardous Waste site. Thats like $15/hour operating cost for this mower not counting consumables like gas, oil, filters, and blades. The only thing nice it did was striping the yard. Its cost was about the same (almost $3300.00). The official test is to chain the mower from the rearend to a pole or beam with all 4 wheels on concrete/asphalt and see if the wheels will break traction when pulling forward. Yeah, add me to the lawsuit too JD SHOULD pick up the tab for the recall/ upgrade/repair bill on the ENTIRE Series of machines that have these apparently cheap-shit axles. Maybe people will start to think twice about buying JD. What a wealth of information. Engineered for extreme speed, strength and flexibility, this mix is specially formulated for extended working time so you can focus on putting a quality finish on your repairs. And thanks for the reference site also. Terry, your point is well-taken. Anyone who refuses to fuck is a detriment to society and others. I now own a JD X540 and am very pleased with it but still have my 2554 and know not what to do with it. They twisted my words, made me look like I was a fool and didnt know where the dealer sticker was. In most cases it will take some relative simple mods, but very do able.. Anyone know why that is? Do I go buy another mower, not John Deere or use the tuff torque. Both tractors are experiencing the same issues class action???? Really disappointed in John Deere. Then i went up a slight hill and it just stopped cold. So I contacted Tuff Torque and ordered all the replacement parts.I following the diagram and carefully putting all the parts back in place.am I going to regret spending so much on this project..I have 200 hours on the machine, since 2008. When it does arrive he will be helping me install it and well see what happens then :). The tractor companies design their products to a certain price point. My L120 is going on 12 years of abuse now and still runs quite well. I could either buy another John Deere that would last 2 years, or get a mower that has the right transmission (like a k66 transaxle); such a mower would run a few thousand at least, so, the best option for someone that owns a John Deere L120 or similar (l120, l130, la100, la110, la120,la130) with a transmission that cant be changed and losing power, is to buy an upgrade kit. Roger/Tony was/is the fit-up to an LT that much more involved. After mowing for about 20 minutes, its starts slowing down whenever I turn sharply. or will the problem continue until I have an expensive green yard ornament in the middle of my flat yard? stan, Still one K66 Upgrade kit available. I was soo wrong! I have a LA 145 and same problem, wont climb a small grade Hill. Im not a mechanic, but before I trash the old transmission, I am intending to dissect it and look at the inner guts and see how the two plates (clutches?) This is NOT intended for fats and grease. and i know they are sold in deere dealers to but they also have the premium line whitch is 100 times better than a l series. You get what you pay for, buy a real commercial duty machine from a dealer and actually know how to run/maintain the equipment. Less than 40 kits (K66s) left! My JD is an L118, which was described as an entry level model, insinuating that I should not expect it to last. My LX178 is a major power house. Acceptable types of cooking oils include vegetable, peanut, canola, olive, and deep fryer oils. I purchased the mower fight from a John Deer dealership thinking that I got a good product. This year I installed both front axles, bushing and two new front tires at the same time and they still going bad. Sure would be nice if a class action suit would include that series mower. However, TuffTorq does publish a procedure for adjusting this with the tractor running on jack stands listed below: The procedure is probably similar for many models. It has always been useless going backward, but now even worse, especially with snow blower attachment. They agreed becasue they said some of the K-46s could be serviced. $879.00 Upgrade Kit * Almost every time we buy parts, the price is higher! It appears that all the 100 series used the same front axle and same bushings and I have been changing them 2 or 3 times a year. I love the tractor and snow thrower, dethatcher, etc accessories and cannot affort to buy a whole new mower and accessories. Roger has the same tractor as I have (JD L130) and he said that he had the same trouble and was going to install the K66 transaxel. Today, we have 12 kits left. A hardpan is a hard layer of soil which the roots cant penetrate. It was neatly packaged and numbered and came with a manual that had step by step instructions much better than anything you would get from JD! I did a lot of research and there are manuals you can buy to do it yourself; youll save some money buying the transmission separately, but you have to run around and get all the parts. ? Boy was my intuition right. Works good on a downhill run but have to use the ATV to bring it back home! Suggest that lawyers go after Lowes, HD and Tuff Torq since they are all pointing fingers at one another. OK, Im done ranting. This mower has serious design flaws with the front axel and transmission. Where do things stand with this law suite? You, your PHD and your high and mighty attitude will end of sliding out of my and my girlfriends anuses, into our toilet, within the next two days. I had everything removed and prepared and was waiting for the new kit to arrive. Stumps can be taken to the I-66 Transfer Station or I-95 Landfill Complex for disposal. Take to a Household Hazardous Waste Site. Asphalt, Brick, Cement, Ceramic, Cinder Block, Concrete, Dirt, Drywall, Marble, Porcelain, Rock, Slate. 124 hours! CLOSED on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Sometimes that seems to work for awhile sometimes it doesnt. Nope that wasnt it. Are you trying to tell me that I should have known that there is a low end and its my fault for buying it? My JD LA 130 will no longer climbs small hills after about 15-30 mins. I also bought a LA175. I thought it would be something simple. WebAs concrete dries you can shape and smooth it. You can also contact your local media newspaper, television ect. So my word of warning, do not make it do the work of a tractor. UPDATE FOR K66 UPGRADE KIT PROGRAM The Box Stores boasted a 4 year warranty I guess I didnt read the fine print4 year/120 hour warranty. It can be left smooth or textured by lightly dragging a broom across the surface. Ill keep you informed on the testing. He told me to call the dealership I purchased it from and get service from them. I then read that the process of changing out the transmission is very time consuming (to install the new one on my tractor, it took 5 hours and two of us) so Im guessing that just dropping it and doing a change would be about 3 4 hours? Gnawwww! Go figure! Polishes, rust removers and floor care products should be taken to a Household Hazardous Waste site. I have to cut a small amount and give it about two hours to cool then repeat. I trusted John Deere, I felt that no matter what the price, I could count on it lasting forever. Thanks. Well after new tires, battery, carb clean, and cleaning grounds, it starts. My mower is losing power, even on small hills, changed transmission belt thinking this would alleviate the problem. Indeed we are in!!!! Asphalt offers a flexible solution for overlaying concrete and Hanson can supply crack-resisting asphalt including, Tufflayer and Tufflex, for example. Buyer beware! I too have a K46 Transaxle on a John Deere 155 C. It stopped going uphill, To be honest I have quite the hill behind my house, but I was told when I bought it It was no problem. Why has the price nearly doubled in less than a years time? Thats still less than JD wants.Cant afford a new one. If you do this and get an answer, can you post it here so that others having the same problem will have the solution? DO NOT pour windshield washer fluid into the motor oil recycling tanks. I take umbrage with the dealer (True Statement) who chastised owners for not being as knowledgeable as John Deere salespeople. Can you advise please. Have to wait about 30 min to mow again. JD is no different from all the others. I have 2 tractors a LA 105 with manual transmission and a L111 automatic the L111 has 360 hours on it will not pull any kind of hill just flat surface but the briggs and straten big 2 cylinder engine is still running strong with no issues no smoke or nothing wish the trans was same way but nooooooo I am hoping the la 105 will out perform the L111 I have 135 hours on la 105 The L111 is much easier to use I hope john deere will help us out of this problem Thanks and keep inform of any remedies.

Most of us are average have average conditions and lawns to manage. Best regards, roger, My problem may be a little different. Thanks. You know, one comment I kept seeing repeated was that after the upgrade many felt like they had a new lawn tractor again. At least Im not mowing around it. I am buying a gravely zt hd 60 zero turn mower. It runs well now and has otherwise been a good mower that has had a lot of use on our 1 acre of slightly hilly grass. Going to pull my K46 today on that DYS4500. What is this? Plastic bags that make it past the rollers contaminate the other recyclable materials. Turn the Fulcrum Shaft clockwise slowly until the Axle Shaft stops and mark the Transaxle Case.
