Hey All,
I have a 2003 460DA with Cummins 480CE's aboard. I have put 800 hours on the engines in 12 months with no issues. Recently, when I run at about 2900 RPMs, I get a hard vibration and a drop in RPMs for 1-3 seconds, then it subsides. It then gets more frequent. If I continue, it can be almost a constant thing.
I ran an hour yesterday at 2200 RPMs with no hard vibration, but I can feel a small vibration with no RPM loss. I pushed it to 2900 just to see if it was still there and it happened again.
I have checked the wheels for obstructions, but found none. I did check the tranmission fluid level and it is good.
Thoughts?
