mahindra 3616 oil filter?

[AchingBack]

I recall a thread about filters and one member paid dearly for not using a Mahindra filter. I'd rather pay more for the Mahindra filters than using something that is not filtering equal to what should be used. Just my point of view.

In the thread you referred to, the filter in question was an air filter. It cost the owner the price of a new engine. There was only a slight difference compared to the OEM filter, and it was less money, but in the long run, more expensive.

Mahindra, Deere, Kubota , New Holland and any other tractor maker that I know of manufactures their own filters. The filters are made to each makers specs by companies like wixs, baldwin, fram and fleetguard, so there are aftermarket filters that are as good or better than the OEM's. Just be careful to get one that specs correctly or saving a little can cost you a lot. Just my $.02

I will spend the big$ for a factory filter during the warrantee period. I have been down the aftermarket road and had warrantee issues that cost a lot of money. For an extra 15$ it is not worth the hassle or cost if something goes wrong.

Wix filter 51348 at an auto parts store is the replacement also at a third of the cost!

I'm having a heck of a time finding an oil filter wrench for my Mahindra 3616 HST. It's VERY difficult to even get to the darned filter (bad design). Do you have one, or can you suggest one?
