Reflash again! 3rd time a charm?

[Jabonee]

Just learned through the grape vine that ECU equipped tractors are slated for another reflash later this year.

All tractors with an ECU?

Not the 1526 though, right?

Not sure at this time. Mahindra will sent you a notification or your dealer will contact you.

I don't think the 1526/3016 has an ECU.

Thanks to the EPA.

Thank god I never at fish out of Lake Erie 40 years ago!

Correct - the 1526 is an old-school indirect-injection diesel with a mechanically-controlled injection pump.

Two of the primary reasons I chose my 1526 are that there's no emissions follow-on nonsense and there's no electronics.

Geez, Dick.... tell us how you REALLY feel.... !!!! [[[ ]]]

It's only a simple observation. There are not too many bureaucrats who are willing to break their own rice bowls for the good of the country or the people as a whole just because their job is pretty much done. It's a pretty simple and easily understood concept really. If you believe otherwise I guess you're also still waiting for Santa to show up every Christmas eve and stuffing teeth under your pillow for the tooth fairy.

As far as the ECU thing goes, I don't think anything has done more for internal combustion engines since they first came out than the concept of electronic fuel injection. However they won't do anyone much if any good without proper programming but sadly from what I've seen, that has been somewhat lacking on Mahindra's part. The auto industry tends to do a much better job but I guess they have larger numbers to work with so there is much more at stake if they don't get it right. Just ask VW. LOL

According to my dealer MCRD Engines under 50hp should receive an ECU update this spring/early to maintain EPA compliance.

Well if mine ain't broke I ain't fixin it. They can reflash it if and when it gets to the shop again. This is unless someone else wants to pick up the dime to ship it down there and return it.

This is a good thing.. id take advantage of any type of update offered... its not to fix your tractor its to let you take advantage of better software and help the tractor perform even better

 

[JerryK]

Any word yet when the latest update for the 2555 [ 55hp turbo ] will be available, including any kit for the EGR....??? I want mine reflashed, but don't want to bother the dealer until he can get the new one...

 

[Navasot]

There is already one up for that model. Ill send you a pm
