My fel and 3pt don't move, but the BH uncurls an inch or 2 every day or so. It did that from day 1. Go figure.

You have a very good FEL valve (and 3-pt valve). The FEL curl is pulling on a cylinder, rather than pushing, so
leakdown will be greater as air is sucked into the gland seal.

In an attempt at full disclosure, it is a Mahindra but I do hear of other Mahindras with the same 'leakage' as the OP.

Normal or not uncommon on all brands. It's just what hydraulics do.
