Got a N5 that stopped moving suddenly when unloading corn, will not go forward or reverse. When it happened, I heard a little bit of a clunk and then it stopped moving. Combine hydraulics are also slow and will only work unless revved high. I replaced all the hydraulic filters the morning after and everything was back to normal, ran corn for about a hour and then once again, I heard a slight clunk and no forward motion or reverse. Main belt coming off the engine is not broken and seems tight. Any ideas?

Sounds to me like the hydraulic system isn't keeping the hydro charge pressure steady. I'd say it's time for some hydraulic pump testing with multiple gauges and for sure a charge pressure gauge from the pressure reducing valve to the hydro. This is kind of serious as you could smoke the hydro from lack of charge/lube pressure. No, I have never seen this happen before.

I seen that there is a strainer in the hydraulic reservoir, according to the service manual if there’s a low charge pressure issue that is one of the places to check, no I have not confirmed that it’s got low pressure yet. I’m just wondering if maybe it’s worth draining the hydraulic fluid and having a look.
