2006 (I think) RTV-900 with 1800 hours.
when shifting into forward or reverse and depressing the accelerator, the unit revs but does not move. It is sometimes helpful to go back to N, rev the engine, and put it back in gear, and it will usually move. If you rev the engine while in F or R it will eventually catch and go, sometimes barking the tires.
The problem has gotten worse over time. In addition to being hard to get moving, now the unit lopes or continually surges about every second or so as it goes along.
All farm work, no trails or other abuse.
The unit was at the dealer for this issue back in January and a complete hydraulic service was suggested. I did the service and there was no change. The dealer said there is something wrong inside the transmission and they dont know what it could be without opening it up. Basically, he let me know they were not too enthusiastic about pursuing it.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated as always.
