Sort by Oldest first Oldest first Newest first Most reactions #2 · Apr 1, 2013 Run, don't look back! Poor front end, poor electrical system, poor fuel system. Owned a couple because they convinced me the first one was a lemon. It was, so was the next one! Case or deereid sized are very hard to beat, just my thought. #3 · Apr 1, 2013 ya our neighbor has a couple of new hollands, not sure what model they are, and I know he had problems with front wheel bearings on them. Mind you he grabs 2 1800 lb round bales with the loader and picks up one on the spear on the back and bounces down a cow trail to feed his cows. I figured that might have something to do with his problem. What type of electrical problems have you run into? #4 · Apr 1, 2013 The short wheel base ones up to 155 were fairly bomb proof , and got a very good name for themselves here and they got a hard time. As for the 170 190 i would run a mile! What transmission does it have as the early rc used to eat synchros for fun, but there was a mod to restrict the oil flow to the selector which helped a huge amount. Never any major issues with wheel bearings and there were a lot used to run duels all round on 25 tm140s and bearly an issue if the oil was changed reg. #5 · Apr 1, 2013 We bought a TM120 back in 05 brand new. We had problems with engine overheating at first but they re-programmed it so the fan would kick on faster. Also had some problems with the hyd. outlets. It has been running our TMR for the last couple years and has well over 8000 hrs now. We just finished overhauling the transmission, hyd pump, etc. #6 · Apr 1, 2013 TM= total mess, Scott. #7 · Apr 2, 2013 Agreed, saws several of these with nasty electrical gremlins, junk hydraulic couplers, poorly designed front ends. Run fast!!! 0 Reply #8 · Apr 2, 2013 well I guess that answers my question. I think I will take a look a a red or green one #9 · Apr 2, 2013 a red one would be the same as a blue one wouldn't it???? what year did CNH start using the same tractor just different colours?? #10 · Apr 2, 2013 The MXM series is the same as the TM. Just like the TS-A is the same as the MXU 1 Reply #11 · Apr 2, 2013 I had an MXU lots of problems Case took it back gave me a Puma (that's the MXU now) and i think they took a step backward the Puma is horrible. #13 · Apr 2, 2013 So your MXU problem were the same type of stuff as the TM. 0 Reply #14 · Apr 21, 2013 we have tm 130 boosted to 140 and no problems, and heaps fo guys have m135 and tm155 with 16000hrs hauling 20 tonne behind them with no drama's as stated over her ein oz, ahd more drama's wiht the green ones then the red and blue.
