Screeching on a 2015 Max II when Turning

[einar1968]

Hello Mike. I have a question about my 2015 Max II. I am hearing a loud screeching noise coming from the max when I pull back on the right stick to make a right turn. It's high pitched. It does not do it when I turn soft, but if I make a hard turn it makes the noise. It does not do it until I have run if for a while. I have a total of 5 hours on it (have had it for 3 days so far) and it just started today. Has not done it before today. Can you give me any information on this? Thanks.

Take the max to a fairly steep down hill only needs to be a road bank or a couple vehicle lengths long. Stop the vehicle with the sticks and shut off the engine. Allow the vehicle to creep down the hill a bit at a time and stop it one stick at a time. If the noise is there doing this its band noise. Check transmission fluid level. And report back on what happens.

John,

I have contacted them. They are great guys and are helping me get this issue solved. I was just wondering if there was something I could do to test it at my place so I could give them more information on what is going on. Thanks for the reply!
