Cameron Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Hi Guys! I'm in need of a bit of help. Recently i have been hearing a strange noise from the rear axle of my tractor when braking, it's hard to explain what it sounds like but the closest thing i can think of for comparison is the noise the hydraulic pump makes on a New Holland TM155 when you are tipping up a trailer, suddenly to find you have ran out of oil half way through tipping ... understand? ha ha!. Also, it only makes the noise when I'm close to stopping and i have seriously noticed a difference in braking performance since this all began - it takes a lot more effort to stop the tractor. I'm sorry that i can't explain the noise very well but i really hope that someone on here is able to help me, if not then I'm going to have to call the local the dealer in to have a look at it which will be a bummer seeing as I'm a bit short on cash at the moment \ Anyway thanks for your time Cameron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05rich Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 could be the brakes on their way out \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameron Posted May 11, 2009 Author Share Posted May 11, 2009 Yeah that's what i was thinking, seems a sensible reason really seeing as almost everything on it is still original and it's been around for 20 years now ... but anyway, thanks for the reply i'll definitely take it into account for sure now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Wouldn't think it was the brakes on there way out myself, more likely to be the brake seals going on it, had a Fiat F140 with similar symptoms in the past. See pm I sent you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardJW1 Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 maybe the hand-brake cables have seized and this has lead to brake drag and now the discs have warpped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIGEL FORD Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Only just seen this.....' could be just brake-"squark". Before "anti-squark" oils were formulated in the mid '60s these oil immersed brakes did suffer from very noisy action. Check your rear axle oil level, (allowing for any machine that you use drawing on it's supply) and even change the back-end oil for a proper CNH approved one.
