A toro is a pretty expensive lawnmower. I would take it in and have them look at it. If could be something simple and inexpensive for them to fix. At the time they give you the estimate you can make a decision depending on the estimate, how old your mower is and how much the estimate was as to whether you should dip money into that unit or move on to a new one.
Good answer & suggestion.
Call them and ask or bring by. I know they have parts there and also service.
