Is anyone having a problem with their 850 leaking oil. I bought mine in March and it had to newest oil filter on the machine and when I took it home it leaked oil in my garage. I had to put a pee pad on th floor to catch the oil. It hasn't leaked enough to add oil but it makes a mess. I took it back to the dealer with the transmission raking when I put in in gear and when I got it there it quit raking (of course) they changed the oil filter and it still leaks like it always did. The machine has about 80 miles on it.
I took the gator back to the dealer and they changed the filter and it still leaks. Does anyone know how I can get in touch with John Deere and talk to someone or don't they care enough about their customers to talk to them.
It sounds like it is leaking at the base where the filter gasket meets the engine. Did the mating surface get damaged from a previous filter removal? Without a good light, it may be hard to see.
