Hey Wyatt,

You may want to have the transaxle oil changed. We're finding the NHW20 transaxle oil seems to last about 60,000 miles but many folks don't know to change it. It is a fairly simple process and Hobbit has documented it. But you may want to have a spare, dry, water bottle to take a sample of the oil. If you have a sample, you can choose to test it. If you don't have a sample container, testing later is no longer an option. <grins>

FYI, it is time for my NHW11 transaxle oil change.
