Buying Advice noisy machine

[gravelman]

hi folks, gravelman here in NH I have a 2016 Kubota 2650 cab tractor...nice machine EXCEPT the noise in the cab is awful...whiny hydraulics and or transmission...i have to wear ear protection and that should not be in a nice cab tractor...It is driving me to the point of looking for another machine. I have heard of ways to quiet it down, already changed fluids etc...no change. Any one out there with similar size machine with cab that is quiet??? I may look at John Deere. thanks much...other than that...nice tractor

You may want to try "dynamat" or similar sound deadening material.I have also heard this as a problem with the small cabbed tractors.I have a larger cabbed Kubota and don't have this problem.
