In Reply to: Jon deere 212 transaxle noise posted by rifraf on Thursday, August 26, 2004:
Mike is right! The 200s tranny and rear axle make some noise in top gear. I don't know why, for sure, but they do. Replace the oil as he suggests with the best quality gear oil you can find, and as long as it doesn't pop out of gear, or make any grinding noises, or loud clicking or shuddering, I'd leave it alone. There is almost 1.8 zillion little parts inside, and unless you have rebuilt a lot of gearboxes, it is not do-it-yourself stuff.
