2320 noisey/vibration while in 4 WD

I just pirchased a new 2320 a few weeks ago. The first time I used the 4 wheel drive to move a pile of top soil I could hear a slight grinding noise and could feel a vibration comming from the front end that was not there before. I understand that the tractor might feel a little rougher or sound slightly differant while in 4 Wd but this was NOT present before and is rougher than I feel it should be, as I have used cut's all my life and have never noticed this much grinding noise while in 4 WD.
I have visually cheked it out and the noise/vibration appears to be the drive shaft and or transfer case in the front....as expected.
I was wondering if any one else has noticed this problem with the 2320? I have no problem taking it back to the dealer but it is one of those judgement calls where they will probably say "it is supposed to sound/feel like that" or "they do not here/feel anything"

I'am a new member to this site, but have been raeding the post for several months and really like the knowledge and friendly advise of everyone here.

:Welcome1: I haven't had any trouble with mine. Perhaps someone at the dealer can make a trip out to your place. Then you're right there with them to make sure the problem is replicated. Keep us posted.:goodl:

Call your dealer, I have driven a lot of four wheel drive tractors and even with my 2305 you can't tell if it's in 2 or 4 wheel drive. I have herd of this once before a long time ago on a new unit and I believe it was due to low fluid level but since you have already checked it, I would leave it to the dealer.

Hi

I had a brand new 2320 at my place for a test drive and I couldn't tell (noise wise) if it was in 2 or 4wd. You should have someone from the dealer check this out.
