I had dealer chomping at the bit for combine and Tractor inspection service last Feb/Mar. Both were done early march on the farm, outside. They did miss the combine PTO drive bearing being very rough, You have to remove 2 belts to spin the 6 grove pulley of back of motor. We disassembled Monday, didn't have big enough puller to separate. Took it to dealer, Should have it back Tomorrow, Friday. Blame is shared on this one. But I've been told these are known issue around 2000 eng hrs.
How long is too long for equipment to sit at a dealer waiting on service?
