I use Shell Rotella T 15W-40 in my Duramax and my Cub transmissions.

Default Bucking, Surging, Jerking problem with my GT3200 Solved
One of the problems with forums is knowing what to search for. In describing my problem I used the word bucking, others used surging, and still another used jerking.

I found a post where it sounded like the member had exactly the same problem that I had. He even made a video of himself driving the bucking tractor. After trying the many suggestions offered he gave up and took it to his local CC dealer. They found two loose bolts and when they were tightened the problem went away.

I decided to look at my GT3200 to see if this was my problem too. The aforementioned bolts were tight on my tractor but I did notice some other bolts that were loose and one was completely missing. I guess I missed tightening them when I did my recent differential repair. The bolts in question are the four Hex 3/8-16 x 1.0 GR5 Bolts, Part number 710-0514.

After making this repair my tractor no longer has the bucking (surging) (jerking) problem when starting out in the forward direction.

I hope this post will help someone else who is having this same problem and will be able to find it by searching for one of the descriptive words used in this post.

My thanks go out to all of you who responded to my original post

Yep, I remembered that post. I'm glad that you got it fixed.

There was a guy on here a year or 2 ago with a similar issue like you have. The dealer found that his front mounting bolts were not tight on the transmission and it was causing the issue. Probably not your problem but just throwing that out there.

Does it sound like you are having pump cavitation when it is surging?

I run Rotella 15w40 oil and Wix 51410 filters in my hydro transmissions. For what it cost, I would drain what you have in there, save it and install a new Wix filter and Rotella just to rule that out.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
