Covers warming up the machine, locating and draining two engine oil drains, inspecting magnetic drain plugs for break-in debris, swapping the engine oil filter, cleaning the air filter, and replacing the hydrostatic transmission filter, including a useful find that the OEM Mahindra filter is a Donaldson P169078 available on Amazon for roughly half the dealer price. Best for 2638 owners preparing for their own first service.
An owner-operator sharing a candid, unscripted hands-on service session on his own tractor, with no apparent dealer or brand affiliation.
It is a rebranded part with Mahindra stickers over it, actually a Donaldson Duramax P169078 filter.
The dealer charged about $75, while the same Donaldson Duramax P169078 filter is available on Amazon for about $33.
There are two drain plugs on the engine, both magnetic, which the owner checked for break-in debris during the 50-hour service.
The owner added about two gallons of oil using a funnel after draining both plugs and replacing the filter.
