[QUOTE="Sutton, post: 122204, member: 21844"] Thanks for the response. I know the oil should be changed periodically. This is just a mystery to me. I did the effort to test the machine a full day before the purchase. Bought it and then all the failures. Logically i'm only thinking of what we have done to the machine and whether any of these are reasons for the failures. Reason why i brought up the many hydraulic oil change theory It's just mind blowing, how is it possible? Now even worse, back from the mechanic again. $13 000 later making it a better machine. Done one job with it and it now has hydraulic drive motor problems. The mechanic is telling me that one of the hydraulic drive motors has failed and needs to be replaced. Is it just my bad luck? Or is this a ASV thing? Really starting to dislike asv. My old bobcat has more than double the hours on it and in all the years I have this machine, I don't think I have repaired so many things on it. [/QUOTE]
