EDIT: I’ll add that I just had a third function installed. I can’t say for certain if the noise was there before or not. I figured I’d try to get all inputs first. Is there something they could have done during the install that would cause what I’m hearing?

Hi, new Kioti DK5310SE (hydro) with 7 hours on it. I noticed when I idle it down to cool down before shutting it off, it makes a random clunking or knocking noise under the steering wheel. It has nothing to do with turning (tractor is parked). I also hear and barely feel it at 2k RPM. There’s some casing there but I’m not sure what it is (hydro sump?). It’s right under the steering column in the pics. Didn’t happen on my 2019 CK2610 hydro. Any thoughts? Thanks!

I discovered the same issue today on my new DK 4720 with only 3 hrs on the meter... and after running it for about an hour. Used the tractor today for the first time. Any word from your dealer?
