Message: <blockquote data-quote="Scavenger" data-source="post: 30767" data-attributes="member: 1365"><p>I am thinking about changing the hydraulic fluid in my Case 1845C and I am wondering if someone can tell me what brands of synthetic fluid they use, part numbers for a crossover/conversion, and anything else with their experiences with synthetic. I can get a discount on Mobil products through work, so if Mobil provides a compatible synthetic I would prefer Mobil. I figured that since it needs to be changed, now would be a good time to switch over. I really cringe when it is cold and I hear a loud squealing sound for about 5 minutes, or until the fluid warms up. I never hear this squealing in the spring, summer, or fall. The loader is not kept in a heated building, and stays outside all the time. It seems to only happen when the temperature gets down to about 35 degrees F. I was told that the synthetic fluid would not only stop the squealing, but I guess it is also better for the seals, and can reduce wear much better than the regular hydraulic fluid............thanks.</p></blockquote><p></p>
