What sort of warranty does Kato offer, and how much can you work on the model before you void the warranty? It sounds like this is a relatively new model with very little use. It might be better to see if they will look at it if you send it back to Kato. I think it is typical for most companies to presume that the problem is dirty wheels or track since that eliminates them from fault, but they may say that because they would rather you didn't take the model apart and risk doing damage that would be difficult to repair.
