Hey All,
I have a shudder when I turn the wheel to the left or right. It is the same shudder if you are moving or not. The shudder is strong enough that it can be felt not only in the wheel but upon the dash as well. Hydo oil appears to be clear (assuming no water in it). The unit only has 35 hours on it. I plan to take it in for warranty work, just wonder if anyone else has experienced this yet? My assumtion is steering controller is going bad. Prior to the shudder you could hear the fluid running through the steering controller. This was a distinct noise that you could even hear from inside the cab. Others have mentioned being able to hear it as well. Almost as if the fluid was cavitating through the controller. Perhap a normal noise for the RTV. At any rate, as soon as the shudder started that controller got silent. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance,
Alan
