Just a note on my '02 Mahindra 6000 4 WD.....no problems in the last 250hrs....yeah, I know, we seem to be listing Mahindras' that have "issues"...sorry, don't have any. How 'bout the rest of you Indian Mahindra owners that have no problems...time for little a different slant on these tractors. BobG in VA

517 hours on '06 6000 4wd. Only problems have been with coolant hoses going into oil filter. Replaced both of them for less than $10.

Additionally, the hours have not been easy. Bushogging on very steep ground, baling hay, cleaning up ice storm debris, etc.

'04 E350-DI no issues, and we have been very happy with the tractor during this last 5 years. :)

05, 7520, 400+ hours. Three problems with it.

First, a nut on the steering actuator came loose and was leaking.
Solution, tighten with wrench.

Second, PTO safety switch went out.
Solution, by pass switch, ordered replacement, never have replaced it though.:eek:

Third, power steering fitting down on steering hydraulic came loose.
Solution, tighten fitting with wrench.

And of course as most of you know, MY biggest problem with the 7520 was that it was red, but I took care of that problem. :D I feel like I have gotten past my problem with red, but I have to tell you, the Mahindra red paint on my 08, 3215HST is not the best paint around. :( I know that the 3215 is Japanese, but I have one of those too. :) I am sorry that I do not have enough hours on the 3215 to give a fair review.:eek: But what little that I have used it, it seems to be a real little work horse.:D

Oh yeah, the 40 hours that I have used the 3215HST, no problems. :D

The 6000 4x4 is still holding up fine. Over 900 hours on the pink tractor now.

Actually no issues with the 7010 lately. Rapidly aproaching 500 hours on it. Have a fix planned for the tie rod ends. Wheels seem to be holding up with the collars on them.

Sorry have to mention, new engine on the way for the 3316 HST. Please Please Please be fixed by 10-12. Chickens are leaving and I need you!

My opinion the Indian made Mahindras are the best!

'07 6520 4WD:cool: approaching 500 hours. Drive pulley on hyd. pump cracked out last January while digging my pond running max rpms all day for days running the backhoe. All other "events" were operator error.:eek:

1998 485DI with over 500 hours. I've replaced a hose and a fuel petcock. Probably $40.00 in parts. The 485DI is heavy and tough. Great Tractor!!

Don't have an Indian Mahindra, but my Korean made 3510 has almost 400 hours now and the only problem I have had is a rubber fuel line that split. 5 minute fix. I have been very happy with "the little tractor that could".
