[QUOTE="box, post: 7728297, member: 123958"] You don't actually have to use "genuine" fluids for warranty purposes, just approved fluids with the appropriate numbers and letters stuck to them. I don't think there are many car/tractor manufacturers that actually make their own oil, I assume they'd just be bought in or made to spec by Castrol, Mobil etc, and then put in an expensive bottle. My local SDF dealer uses Castrol oil. If something goes bang under warranty, the dealer's going to try to wriggle their slimy ass out paying for it regardless of who's done the servicing or what oil has been used. [/QUOTE]
