Factory Mahindra Filters Question

CuzPat62 · Jun 27, 2008

Hello All,

Been quite awhile since I've posted but I do stop by to read very often. Hope everyone is doing well. Just wanted to ask a quick question or two.

Is there any place or a particular dealer that one can buy parts and things such as fuel filters, air filter elements and oil filters, transmission filters, etc. for our Mahindra tractors and get them at a good price? I'm just curious to know if I can order them from someplace without having to make such a long drive to the dealer nearest me to purchase them? I don't mind ordering stuff online.

Can anyone post a link or maybe a 1-800 number to a good resource for these factory Mahindra filters?

Much thanks!

Bill's tractor will ship filters

I'm sure I've also seen Daves Tractor and Lawall's (who are active here) offer to ship parts. In fact Galen LaWall was able to ship me a part my dealer didn't know existed.

Hey CuzPat... how has the 7520 been working out for you? I know you had some problems when it was new... everything going your way now?

I have not had any more problems with the tractor since last summer when a Mahindra rep. came to my place with someone from the dealership where I purchased the tractor. They were able to get all the remaining issues at that time resolved for me.

Since then, all has been well with the tractor. I have been doing a lot of hay work with it and this past fall we really worked it hard at our hunting club bushogging and breaking up food plots.

I just did a 250-300 hour service on it yesterday.

My only concern that I still have is that it seems to really like the fuel. I expected it to be somewhat easier on fuel consumption than it actually is.

I need a good source to order the factory filters from thus the reason for this post.

Glad to hear things went well. Mine is doing fine too at 400hrs - just some lingering non operational warranty issues Im trying to clear up.

I thot mine used a lot of fuel too until I noticed the tank only holds 10 or 12G when the reserve light comes on. Fast use of a tank doesnt seem so bad when you realize it isnt a very big tank. At full power it will suck it down tho. Heavy tractor. Also, Im thinking the injector timing is slightly retarded. Something on my list.

Don't want to hijack the thread, but I can't resist the fuel consumption topic. Running about 2k rpm, my 7520 burns about 2 gph. I've only got 100 hrs, so this may factor in. I'm using my tractor to make hay, and walking the fine line of RPM's , power demand, and fuel consumption.

One of the best Mahindra guys on this site

I dont post to often but Galen deserves a mention

You will find him on this site under the name

Lawallstractor

Ask for Galen

He has all the filters and experience with these tractors

I sure wish I could find the hydraulic filters for the 7010 cab cheaper than the $45 each my dealer charged. Takes 2. That's $90 just for hydraulic filters.

I think that you might need to find a different dealer. Call around, most will ship no problem. I went through the same thing here. Local dealer charged right around double of what I ended up finding elsewhere.

Fuel consumption, when I bought mine, did'nt give much thought to it but now that fuel's close to 5 bucks a gallon, boy am I glad my lil 3510 is a fuel mizer. I can barely get it to run through a gallon an hour while bush hogging. If useing just a blade or fel, it seems to last forever on a tank full. Proably not what some of you want to hear but I am really happy all around with this little tractor.

I see Bill's has them for $33 a piece and also offers a service pack, but he doesn't seem to understand the service pack should have 2 hydraulic filters in it. With shipping I could probably save $10.
I think I'll try through TYM dealers and check the price on hydraulic filters.

Are not the engines and hydraulics a wee bit different than the TYM's and Montana's?

jwcinpk · Jul 10, 2008

From what I gather the engines are the only difference other than the rear lift arms.

Hey guys, I'm brand new to the board. I only been here two or three times. I bought a 3510 about 3 yrs ago and love it . No major problems so far. I noticed the talk about cross referencing the oil filters at Napa or other parts stores and was wondering if that could be done with the trans/hydr filter also? I only have one dealer close to me and he always seems to have to order what I need and then I get charged with a shipping fee on top of the filter cost. Is it safe to do this?

I have a Mahindra 2615 4x4 Gear drive, w/ FL106, BH3710, I went to wix.com and was able to use their online tool to find the part# for all of my filters, I then went to fleetfilters.com and orded them all for like $32.00 plus shipping, well under $50.00, if I would have got them from NAPA it would have been like $160 for all.

Lenarguy · Aug 13, 2008

If you do not mind non-factory filters, NAPA can probably get you any filter you want. If you go to their website and put your Mahindra # in they can cross-reference it. They are WIX filters and from my research have some of the best filters on the market. It might be worth checking. Hope this helps! Good luck!

Hello Everyone
I am new to this website. I have read lots of post and feels like I know some of you already. I buy my filters from a local auto parts store, they seem to be eager enough to find a filter to work even if its not easy to crossover.On a Yanmar excavator I own (a beautiful shade of grey) I had to bring my hyd. filters to the service desk and we measured in and out, up one side down the other. Went through his big ole filter book and found a filter that will work just fine. They now, thankfully, carry that size filter just for me. I know this story warms the heart. The point is if you can't find a dealer on-line nd your dealer is to far away I would offer the suggestion that you get cozy with your local auto parts store and see what they can find. Wix, Baldwin and Napa are all pretty dang good. I live in Alabama as well and my Mahindra dealer sells both the Mahindra and the crossover Baldwin. HMMMMM!

V.Mullins · Aug 14, 2008

I got this info from www.wixconnect.com
It has alot of info for cross ref; filters, hope this helps everyone.

I ordered my filters from: fleetfilters.com and saved alot of money.
