They can stick Bobcat tractors where the sun don't shine.

We are trying to rewire a Kubota L2850 right now and getting harnesses is a nightmare.

That statement would turn me off from buying a Bobcat Tractor in a heartbeat.......:thumbdown:

Guess where VOLVO Excavators are made.

the CT335 may be unsupported because of it's age, Bobcat did stop making tractors for a long time, and now have a new line!.. like I said before, ask YOUR dealer if the CT335 is still supported!..

All of the engine parts and replacement engines are all available for this tractor. This engine is still fully supported.

Hope this helps

Thanks MichiganIron!

I knew something was wrong with the OPs story, along with all the fake news doods who piled on!

.....and hardly any rules pertaining to the environment during the whole manufacturing process.

Not to mention we never learned what was wrong with his tractor. Could have been something like a head gasket for all we know. If his story was just like he related, then he needs to be getting legal representation for having his tractor disassembled and all the engine parts left outside in the weather. He never did mention what he was going to do about all of this, Just wanted to make sure we understood that Bobcat tractors are no good, and cannot be repaired either by a Bobcat dealer or a Kioti dealer. And they will just disassemble them without any diagnosis of the actual problem, and then throw up their hands and leave the owner to gather up the pieces literally. He is going to "hurt" Bobcat by not buying another thing from them. He just wanted us all to know we are fools for investing in either Bobcat or Kioti products as we will not ever be able to get service or repair of them. I would give 50 cents to know what really happened or some pictures of the tractor parts strewn about. What say you Original Poster? What ARE you going to do?

A "dead" cylinder could be as simple as a problem with one valve....not a big deal. Hopefully, the OP's tractor is repairable....after the snow melts and all the parts are found.

Well it does look like he has had the tractor for quite a while and really liked it.:

Re: Tractor- An Expensive Toy, ...until the big one hits
LOL Yeah, here in northern Minnesota I'm the tractor guy in our neighborhood. My 335 Bobcat plows snow for the weekend neighbors from Minneapolis. Brings in area lake docks, and is an invaluable...




I feel bad for the OP he may have been taken for a ride on the trouble shooting and diagnosis of the root problem. Then WAS given inaccurate info on replacement parts.

$2000 to change 3 injectors then say tough luck... I would be more than a little ticked off to. That is a parts changer not a mechanic. Could even just have been in need of a valve adjustment.

Here is hoping he finds a knowledgeable mechanic that can salvage this situation since parts are obviously readily available.

I think there is more to it. Korea is not a particularly cheap labor market today. If the only concern was labor cost, they would be building them in China, Cambodia or somewhere in Africa. Having spent a lot of time in Korea, I think the key is educated hard working labor at a reasonable cost.
