Hi guys, I’d like to know your experiences in things related to auxiliary engines at Man. We are a working-class landlord and currently have 2 TGL and 2 L2000 (7,150, 8,150, 8,180 and 18,280) in use. At regular intervals we have serious problems with the auxiliary drives. With none of the 4 vehicles the drive has lasted longer than 1.5 years. Most of the time it starts with that the drives can be put in worse or almost only go in with crashes until they then s In the case of the diagnosis, the return fork and the pressure disc have usually always entered or the compressed air piston from the return fork has entered. It was also several times the case that the gears themselves were heavily worn out. One must also say that in these vehicles of the secondary drive a hydraulic pume drives which supplies our crane similar construction. Furthermore, our use cannot be compared with that of a tipper truck. Since we have the auxiliary drives considerably higher running times (about 500-1000h in the year). As a rule, the drives run all day at a time. Since we currently also have 3 Atego and div. Sprinter in use, which do not cause any problems (the oldest has already over 5000h) we are quite detached from the reliability. Moreover, for a repeater are always very fast 1000,- away and most vehicles run slowly out of the guarantee, what the story to a teuren hobby mac Our Man branch office is very busy and also regularly consults ZF on the problem (several local appointments with ZF) however, the MAN master is slow with his Latin at the end.
