Any use the Baldwin or Wix filter on their tractor? I've been using a Mahindra brand, but also have a Baldwin and Wix XP filter. Just wanted to ask before hand. Thanks

Recommend you owners of new Mahindras stick with OEM filters till the warranty runs out. Most companies these days are looking for any excuse to not pay a warranty claim.

Mine is out now. The funny thing, when I bought mine it was under warranty. Had 93 hours on it. The dealer didnt even use the OEM filter...lol.

Not all dealers are the same.

That's why its important to do your homework on a dealership if you intend on buying or getting service from them. Try to use a 'Red Carpet Dealer" They have the trained sales and service staff. Refrain from dealing with a dealership that sells cars or hardware. :thumbsup:

I tend to agree that if it’s still under warranty it’s best to stick with oem. With that said believe most if not all the Max and some of the other smaller machines have Mitsubishi SL3 motors. I’ve found very good service and operation and maintenance manuals online for these dated around 2008. So far it’s been completely accurate for my motor and has been very helpful in providing specs for fluids, torque adjustments s etc. this motor is very common. Here’s a link to a fram oil filter for Mahindra Parts Search Results MAHINDRA 2516 w/Mitsubishi S3L Engine | FRAM

They are a very big Case/IH, New Holland, and Mahindra dealer. Been here, 40 years I guess....lol. Great service and sales honestly.

Yeah, just didnt know if one of the others were better oil filters? A lot of Kubota things cross to this tractor though....lol. Air filter, fuel filter, fuel filter assembly. Mahindra like $58 for air filter Kubota is $35....lol.

Thanks for the tip there BootLegger... below is the air filter info. The filter on the left is the Mahindra ($55) and the right is the new Kubota ($33)... fits perfectly.
