My 2015 Mahindra smokes heavily when first starting. My dealer has told me it is because the 2015 only has a 4 sec timer on the glow plugs. He suggested hitting the glow twice to heat the glow plugs more. That seems to help but does not eliminate the problem. He said the 2015 is the only model with a 4 sec timer, the rest have 8 sec timers. Any one else having this problem?

4 sec. is short for glow plug timing but, if the smoke is as bad as you suggest that 4 additional sec is not going to solve you problem.
I would suggest having your dealer check the injection pump timing. As litte as 2 degrees can make a difference. ....

The above parts were installed on my dads 2015hst , the new glow plugs and timer make the tractor start the way it should , on a +8 degree day the glow plug light stayed on for over 30 seconds , the tractor fired up instantly ! the parts that Mahindra supplied fixed the problem , since the tractor would barely start on a 50 degree day before . ....
