Yesterday I went to purchase another bucket of hydro fluid for my Max 28 and found out that what I wanted was no longer carried at the (close by) store.

I'm sure I can find another source, but I'd rather not waste any more gasoline/time than is needed for this one purchase.

Back when I first got the machine, the dealer sold me a generic "universal" fluid which was inexpensive and seemed to work fine. I figured that if the dealer gave me this, there wouldn't be any question if a warranty issue came up. Since then, however, I've been able to find locally something from Mahindra's (rather sparse) listing of recommended fluids. Now I've got to start looking again. Before I do, however, I thought I'd see what others are using.

What hydro fluid do you use in your (especially Mitsubishi-built) Mahindras?

I use the Mahindra oil from my dealer for my MAX 28.

for my 100 hour I went with Amalie Ultra Trac 245. Its multi grade, very good in cold climate, transmission noise is down a bit as well. Heres a link to the data sheet. Amalie Oil Co.

I only use Shell Donax, which has been changed to something (Spirax, I think) now. Shell Spirax gear oil also.
