Notably practical: it identifies the drain bolt size (17mm), pinpoints filter and dipstick locations, names three interchangeable filter part numbers including a FRAM cross-reference, lists several approved diesel oil brands by name, and closes with a real cost figure under $50. Best for MAX28XL owners doing their first DIY oil change.
An owner-operator sharing hands-on maintenance experience from their own tractor, posted by the joeynickdotnet channel.
It is a 17 millimeter bolt, located on the right hand side of the engine along with the oil filter.
Mahindra part number MAM0117 fits, and FRAM part number PH6017A is an acceptable cross-reference according to the video.
Any oil meeting a CF or greater rating works, including Mobil DELVAC, Shell Rotella T, Texaco Ursa Super Plus, Chevron DELO 400, Exxon XD3 Extra, Citgo CITGARD, or Mobil 1 Turbo Diesel Truck.
The total cost was less than $50, including four quarts of Mobil 1 synthetic oil and a Mahindra brand oil filter.
