WIX are doing more and more Agri Stuff? Anyone using?
Years ago we had wix filters on listed gensets. Stopped using after the filters cracked pumping all the engine oil on the ground

Fyi I spoke to someone yesterday who priced a filter kit up for a 6145r, fell over, asked the cost for it to be serviced, including oils, only £100 more.Just doing a full service on my JD 6130R
Went to get all the filters and 2 fuel filters cost £114 + vat

That seems about £100 too muchGot a full set sitting waiting to go on a case puma 200cvx (6000hr) so will be around £500 as well I would think
14 filters in totalThat seems about £100 too much
14 filters in total
Engine oil, 3 fuel (including inline), 2 air, 3 cab, cvx takes 3 hydraulic, Adblue and air brakeWhere the heck do 14 filters go on a puma?
Hence , JD is cheaper to service, less filters . Valtra have plenty of filters to change every 600 hrs, makes every service expensiveEngine oil, 3 fuel (including inline), 2 air, 3 cab, cvx takes 3 hydraulic, Adblue and air brake
I notice they have a high level of safety standards ...oem then chargin top dollar for something made in a sweat shop.
Ant...
Yeah....call themselves a sweat shop, it's a disgraceI'm shocked that they don't employ the children of those blind, deaf, 3 fingered fellas with knackered lungs, to fold the crinkly yellow filter paper up.

Hydraulic filter seems around £87 too highJcb 526 filters and one drum of oil come to enough!View attachment 1128183
Depending on whether pattern or OEM they might not be cheap, check out Carpenter Goodwin at Leominster they have a good range of filters including Donaldson.Just doing a full service on my JD 6130R
