Hydraulic Tank Filter on pretty much all Dyna-VT Masseys & most likely the same part on all the Fendts...
Try £195 each yet you can buy aftermarket ones from £45-75 several brands.
Worse is your meant too change these every 400/500/600 hrs on def model masseys
Its tech more money than all 3 fuel & oil & air filters on the Engine itself.

Did you shop around? That's robbery and almost certainly available cheaper elsewhere.

that was jcb dealer price - we didn’t replace them as not worn out just very noisy- its back together with “anti squark” additive in the oil to see if that helps

it was stripped as it sounded like the diff maybe about to explode, but all looked fine in there

Main Belt Tensioner on 6480 Sisu Engine.... eye watering beyond belief.
Put it this way the bearing was whistling so its on its way out so i did the right thing...
Bearings no more than £10 by the way. Oh but you cant just get the bearing from Massey.
As long as the tensioner hasn’t got any sideways play just replace the bearing, usually just held in with a clip.

I found plates for ours at least, if not better, than half price elsewhere compared to dealers.
