Kubota RTV400Ci Common Problems This Manual Covers
CVT belt wear and slipping
As service hours build, the CVT drive belt narrows toward its allowable limit and begins to slip, giving weak acceleration and extra heat. The Transaxle section covers the CVT, range gearshift, and drive components.
Manual Section: 3 Transaxle p. 149Weak or fading brakes
Brake pads wearing to their limit reduce stopping power, and air or low fluid softens the pedal. This section covers the front and rear brakes, master cylinder, brake oil, and parking brake.
Manual Section: 4 Brakes p. 189Hard starting or rough idle
Low compression, tight valve clearance, or a fouled spark plug shows up as hard starting and an unstable idle. The Engine section covers the engine body, fuel system, and intake and exhaust.
Manual Section: 1 Engine p. 74No-start or charging faults
The electric fuel injection, starting, and charging circuits can leave the vehicle dead or hard to run. Wiring diagrams and system tests are in the Electrical System section.
Manual Section: 7 Electrical System p. 259Loose or wandering steering
Wear in the steering linkage produces play at the wheel and a tendency to wander. The Steering section covers the linkage and manual steering setup.
Manual Section: 6 Steering p. 249Clutch or engine brake complaints
Slipping or grabbing in the clutch and one-way clutch (engine brake) affects drive and downhill control. The Clutch section covers clutch operation and the one-way clutch.
Manual Section: 2 Clutch p. 137Frequently Asked Questions
