Comparing servicing costs between gear / Shuttle and Dyna transmissions

[Mike476]

I've read quite a few posts about the intervals and costs associated with servicing HST transmissions but not much on geared, synchro-shuttle or Dyna QPS transmissions. Was wondering if anyone could provide some insight into Intervals / materials / costs for servicing their newer tractors.

Massey 1660 Dyna QPS, the transmission filter costs around $20, and the manual calls for a complete fluid change at 50 hours, and then again at 400 hours, I don't remember the capacity of oil but I believe it is in the 15 gallon range.

Our 1635 Powershuttle holds 31L /7gallons, spin on filter costs $43, then clean the internal filter at 50 hour service. Every change after the initial is done at 150 hours.

Just have to check clutch free play as per the manual, and are good to go.

Next tractor will be a DynaQPS, or if I can go bigger, CVT!

Thanks for the replies gents. Just trying to get a sense for the different servicing requirements.
