Welcome to the forum! :welcome:

I was just reading your review. Leaking oil doesn't sound great.

No, I'd rather it burned it, at least I'd know the rings or valve stems were lubed1:dance1:

Welcome. So far no leaks on my 1538 with about 50 hours on the clock. I'd be talking to my dealer if mine were leaking that much oil. Do you know where it's leaking from?

Welcome! Can you tell where it's leaking from? 5 quarts is a ridiculous amount of oil to lose over only 50 hours! I'd be getting that fixed ASAP.

Dang, Dick! I was typing my response when you posted yours! Great minds think alike, I guess.

Yeah I originally told him to post in the Mahindra section but it looks like he did already. I wouldn't be putting up with that kind of foolishness for a nano second. I payed for a warranty and I have every intention of getting my money's worth. That's a whole lot of engine oil so it's gotta be easy to find.
