hey guys new to the forum, this is my first post. I read the posts all the time and really enjoy the insight that is shared on this board. I noticed this topic and funny enough I was just thinking of a related issue. My family has a new Deere 3120 compact utility tractor with ehydro. Well the other day I checked the trans. fluid and noticed it was a little low. I happened to have some JD Hy-gard fluid on hand and used it to fill it up. Well afterwards I noticed that the recommendation called for low viscosity hy-gard and i used just regular hy-gard. I realize the difference is the operating temp of the two fluids and the hy-gard is fine for my temp range. But my question is did I do anything bad by combining the low-viscosity the regualr hy-gard? I olnly added a small amoutn of regular hy-gard. Also one last concern. I checked my front axle fluid and it was real low, not on the dipper so i added some fluid to top it off. Why could this be, just not enough added from the factory, only 43 hours on the tractor? No leaks, could the fluid have gone elsewhere to make it low? Thanks in advance for you help with my issues, always appreciated <font color="green"> </font>
