happy with the mahindra but surprised to see hyd oil leaking out shifter boot.. not surprised to find a leak, surprised to see the hyd level high, never added any so is there a way for the level to rise from another fluid?
why after yrs of use, hyd level high & leaking

Would it be possible that rainwater is getting into the sump thru the same shifter boot?

What model Mahindra? Has it been 5 years since you checked the level or changed the fluid?
Generally when we hear of this problem it is water like koua mentioned and only on older tractors with a shifter boot that is shot and then only on the type of transmissions for which a leaky boot is up on top and can collect rainwater. Seems unlikely on a newer model that is stored indoors. If you have that much water your hydraulic fluid will be milky.

Being washed and cleaned ?
I check engine oil & water each use but sadly the hyd fluid has not been checked or changed. I always look under her (concrete floor) and if no leaks I assume the fluid level is good..
Will drain fluid and change filter today, with proper level the small hole in boot will not be a problem.
thanks for all the fast replies!
