Emax25 smoke, smell, no heat

[tommy49]

My 2019 Emax 25 Cab suffered from smoke and excessive diesel fumes to the point that we
couldn't use it. Our clothes would reek of diesel. Another issue was lack of cab heat. I suspected
the engine was not getting hot enough and not burning fuel. We had only used it a couple times
and since we were still waiting for the snowblower, we just parked it until the dealer picked it up.
Now, my dealer has had my tractor for 2 weeks and here's what they discovered about the
smoke, fumes, and no heat, from Mahindra. All Emax tractors are shipped here without cabs
and there's a company that installs the cabs for Mahindra. My dealer doesn't know who the
installer is. Mahindra has a cooling system kit that is supposed to be installed with the cab. This
installer company has a history, known to Mahindra, to ship Emax cab tractors without the
cooling system kit, when their supply of kits runs out. My dealer found all this out yesterday.
They have my Emax, another customer's Emax, and one in their lot, missing kits. To top it off,
there are no cooling system kits available at the moment, so my dealer's service techs are fabricating a kit for
my Emax and I should have it back next week. When they get a kit, they'll put that on my Emax.
So, that's the story. If you have an Emax with a cab and it smokes, reeks of diesel, and no cab
heat, contact your dealer about the cooling system kit. Hope this helps others.

Wow, good heads up for people. It sounds like Mahindra needs to ditch that supplier ASAP.

I got my Emax back from the dealer a couple weeks ago and it's running great!:thumbsup: No smoke, no stink, and plenty of cab heat!:thumbsup: Today, while in the big city of Cadillac, we made a special trip to the dealer, Ellen's Equipment in McBain, to thank them for the great work they did fabbing up the cooling system parts that Mahindra didn't install. They said they still don't know when the factory parts would come in, but when they do, they'll install them so the tractor has all factory parts for warranty coverage. They also said I'll get a copy of the work order and a list of the parts installed. When I get the parts list, I'll post it here.

Ellen's new dealership lot and building sure are impressive. I was down that way a boot a couple months ago checking doing my normal Fall ' check out the big wind generators ' trip. My buffalo ranch neighbor just had his New Holland fixed there and he was impressed, too. He was disillusioned with Ginop's.
