Mahindra 6000 4wd tranny problems?

   / Mahindra 6000 4wd tranny problems? #11  
I have a 2002 Mah. 6000 2wd. Its been problems almost from day one.
Yes, i had the stalling problem. was air in the fuel line. got stopped up
in the screen inside the fuel tank. bled it and pumped up the line.
and it was fine. also had clutch slip problems. most of the 4 wd models
I've seen have had to have clutch replacements at about 400 hrs.
dealer said, they've had cl. go out at 80 hrs. if you believe that. I certainly
can. I made it to 1000 hrs on the clutch i have. Pto portion of is dead!!!!
and in high gear it slips or revs up! its bad!
These are my problems since 2002!
1. Hyd. leaks. first year
2. tie rod ends fell off. ( No grease fittings to use! )
3. muffler & exh. man. replaced
4. radiator leaks
5. all hyd lift cyl. replaced 2 times.
6. bad joy stick control, fell apart. also wore out.
7. bad brkes. & most of the Hyd.hoses on loader.
8. many flat tires. valve stems stick out to far!
9.starter went out. 5th yr.
10. steering box went out. leaked bad!!!
11. Note: This tractor had a bad front end. Defective front end!
Mahindra redesigned this model with larger spindles & housings!
The LF spindle broke on me on a job. Mahindra Did warranty the parts
only! Not the labor, my local dealer wanted 60.oo an Hr to replace
if i hauled it to him! I found out from the Texas Dealership, you know
the big one out there. It Was all under warranty. my local guy/ jerk said, after
I waited a week , he said, I really had haggle with them to get the parts
warrantied for you. yeah right! He's been sued! filed Bankruptcy
and now he's back at it again. Mahindra doesn't care who sells their Tractors
as long as someone does. Mahindra did not stand behind me!
I could list more problems, defects in designs etc.
But, Please don't buy one. you can't sell um used to anybody.
The Dealer, Mah. dealer is the only place that will accept it on trade
believe me I tried. These tractors are good for hobby farmers only!
People I've talked to, have only had problems! Been lied to about their
clutch problems etc.from clowns like the one here in Dade city, florida.
He told every one I spoke to this, Its your fault ,you rode it, kept
yr foot on it! Have you heard this before?I have rec.d my info other people
owners like me. Also from 2 other dealerships and a retired Mahindra
Mechanic. So think about it!
It was the worst mistake we ever made to buy this over priced cheap made piece of junK!!!!Its cost me over $10,000 in parts and repairs!
Thanks Mahindra! Thanks Alot! Byron Sessoms
I have a 2006Mahindra 7520 with over 1000hrs. Ive used it hard and its been pretty good. I am OK on the quality, altho I do have some significant quibbles in that regard. But the main issue I believe is that there is an extreme variability in dealers - and they are sparse at that. I would sure like to see better support, as well as fewer latent design and manufacturing problems.
