From day one,my tc33d has had what I call "gear chatter" from the rear pto area. The chatter gets LOUDER after everything warms up. It is really noticable at idle and is annoying. The dealer says that this is normal,but,I drove a newer model,mine is a 2001 compared to a 2002,2003, and the chatter was barely there or not at all. Is this normal???
Engaging the pto makes no difference. It only stops when I depress the clutch,regardless if it is in a gear range or in neutral. My powertrain warranty ends soon. ....

I don't think it has anything to do with the pto. The noise comes from the gear housing regardless if the tractor is moving or not. The noise stops when the clutch is pushed in.
Could it be a spring or something connected to the clutch somehow??? ....

My tc33d had the same problem. I fixed it by tapping the upper shock connecting pin with a hammer to unstick the little pin that releases and holds the shock. I had also sprayed it a week before with WD40,don't know how much that helped though. ....

Sorry about taking so long,3 young boys in baseball keeps you busy. The noise,best I can tell, is coming from the rear gear housing, sort of like a rattle but I cannot pinpoint it exactly.Like i said it stops when the clutch is pushed in, is worse after everything warms up. Everything works as it should, just the darn chatter is annoying. I know this is not much to go on. Dealer does have it noted in my file about the noise being there from delivery date. The dealer offered to break into the tractor to try to find the cause but I was hesitant for him to do that.So far,after 238 hours, no drivetrain problems. Is mine the only one that has this noise??? Oh well, guess I'll have to keep living with it. ....

Just a thought, your warranty must be getting close to being done (I did not catch the year) If it is still under warranty maybe you should take it in since you have over 200 hours on it anyway and have them look it over? Crack it open, maybe they will find something and then you may get new parts in it for nothing. You do realize that RIGHT after the warranty expires something rlated to this problem will break! Murphys Law you know? ....
