wh500special 2,277 #27 Posted February 10, 2022 The 5xi’s are generally quieter than other WH tractors so the lift noise is more apparent. This is especially true if you happen to have the liquid cooled 520Lxi. Mine all whine when the relief valve opens at the end of the stroke. If you have a model with power steering, there is another filter in the hydraulic system in the power steering circuit. When it’s dirty it makes the lift and steering do erratic things and can increase the noise. Clean it. It’s behind the cooling air intake screen under the steering wheel. There’s probably a manual posted here somewhere that details the procedure. Steve 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fatboycowen 31 #28 Posted February 10, 2022 Mine has been noisy since I've owned it. 7 or 8 years. It makes a nice horn to get the wife's attention, when I need another beer. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dang that is wrong. ...and my wife would respond with a flying heavy object propelled in my general direction, repeatedly as necessary until proper point was made. ...and it would not be a beer. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
