14.6.1 Oils, Fluids and Flushing
In many cases, fluid discoloration is a normal operating characteristic by itself, and
does not necessarily indicate a concern or that the fluid needs to be changed.
However, discolored fluids that also show signs of overheating and/or foreign
material contamination should be inspected immediately by a qualified expert such
as the factory trained technicians at your Authorized Mahindra Dealer. Your vehicle's
oils and fluids should be changed at the specified intervals or in conjunction with a
repair.
14.6.2 Chemicals and Additives
Non-Mahindra approved chemicals or additives are not required for factory
recommended maintenance. In fact, Mahindra recommends against the use of such
additive products unless specifically recommended by Mahindra for a particular
application.
Your vehicle is very sophisticated and built with multiple complex performance
systems. Every manufacturer develops these systems using different specifications
and performance features. That's why it's important to rely on your Authorized
Mahindra Dealer to properly diagnose and repair your vehicle.
When planning your maintenance services, consider your Authorized Mahindra
Dealer for all your vehicle's needs.
14.6.3 Get the most from your service and maintenance visits
Getting your vehicle serviced at an Authorized Mahindra Dealer adds great value to
your vehicle in number of ways. Hence, it is recommended to service your vehicle at
an Authorized Mahindra Dealer only.
