Ok I found out something interesting at my dealer today. As I posted a couple of days ago, my hoses are already starting to split that go to and from my oil cooler on my TC29D. For those who also have class 2 boomers, my dealer service manager told me today that New Holland is aware of this issue, and they are replacing the cooler and hoses under warranty. Here is the interesting part.... it is NOT the fault of the hoses. It is the fault of the cooler not flowing freely enough. He told me today that the only way to remedy the problem permanently is to replace the cooler with a new one (different flow of course) and new hoses. If you just replace the hoses, you will be having the problem again soon. He explained to me that even if you get very strong hoses, they will eventually fail because of the immense pressure at those points. So if your unit is still under warranty, get this taken care of asap. If not, you might as well bite the bullet and just buy a new cooler and hoses. Hope this helps someone! Mine is in the shop as we speak. Oh and I also give praise to New Holland. I called them about the problem and they were at my house 3 hours later loading my tractor on a trailer to take it to the shop. I know this is also praise to the dealer, but its good to know that New Holland is keeping up with the current problems.
