John Deere 4650 lacking speed

Hi Guys

My JD 4650 lacks the necessary speed, especially when ploughing. I have fitted new hydraulic filters everywhere, I have also poured new transmission oil (BP Castrol Super Tractor Universal oil), but still no joy. When ploughing, I can at most only go to the 3rd gear, any gear beyond 3, the Tractor will just stop moving completely, then I'd obviously have to change down to 3rd gear or lower, this resulting in the tractor literally moving at speed of a Turtle, this making it totally inefficient.

Someone suggested there might be problem with the Clutch, and someone else countered that by suggesting it might be something related to Hydraulic oil pressure, as the clutch should last long, as it is almost never used due to the tractor's inherent clutchless shifting capability. Someone please assist, I need to urgently get back onto the field.

What ever it is you had better stop "NOW" and fix it,,you have something that is failing badly and it will get costly if you continue..
 
Yeah, you better find someone with some knowledge on those transmissions and have them check the clutch pack pressures. Sounds like major problems.
