Im losing faith fast,

I unhooked/hooked the quick connects 3 or 4 times and the BH is now working again.
Yes its the yellow handle I was talking about.
So the bh works again for now
Today I noticed that the hydro behind the brake pedal is worn, It seems when I put the parking brake on the brake arm rubs on the hose and has wore it down to the steel lining, one more problem now.
I stopped at my dealer, they said they will make me up a new hose at no charge, as I said before my dealer is great, I told him my frustrations with the Kioti, he told me that he just got a 07' ck30 with 150 hours on it and will give me a great deal since I have had so many problems, even he said I have had more then my share of problems, Im not to hopefull on the price, money is a little tight i told him, he replied "dont count my chickens just yet" So i will wait to see what Price he comes up with same year as mine, mine has 500 hours on it, it has the bigger tooth loader, ag tires, but the same bh

... they replaced the main valves which I believe were the main problem area with that 2365 BH. I had one myself and it worked great on my CK20, I never had any problems with it at all. Luck of the draw.

Bought my CK20HST about four years ago. I've been very happy with the machine's performance in all modes. Service - not so.

Dealer made three attempts to fix a leaky KB2365 valve. When that dealer dropped Kioti, I had the new new local franchiser do a scheduled service. They replaced one low-pressure seal, which reduced the leak, but it still drips. I contacted Kioti several times, including within the 1-year warranty period, and got no help at all. They never, over several years of calls and e-mails, even acknowledged that there might be a systemic problem with these valves, even after the dealer gave a hint.

I do like the machine, and would recommend it to anyone. I am not at all impressed with the company or its service. Perhaps Bobcat will add a positive influence to customer support.
