That’s on a 137”:track too, average 800 struggles to crack 100. 25 minutes ago, Edmo said: Hard to believe they don’t find this stuff in testing. Mine hasn’t had any of those issues in1800 miles. I’m thinking Aaron’s sled might have gotten left out in the rain and then something froze up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have one in our group that has had a no start a few times. Just have to fiddle with the relay but still a pain at -40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's mostly about getting snow in, the turbo melts it and it freezes and locks the steering. Apparently if you believe hcs, doo is aware and working on something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steering froze cock stiff 2 times I had a completely dead machine I have developed a vibration at anything over 140 that'll shake your teeth out an insane amount of pressure in the tank to the point if you spin the cap off it will shoot up about 8" into the air engine oil is at the fill line throttle surge coming into corners. It will actually start to accelerate even though you aren't touching the throttle if you blip it before. Doesn't come to idle quick like a 2 stroke. Just have to know it may happen and adjust but I did have a few oh shit moments. Mine has a lag in it random high idles Backfiring clunking in reverse. Usually means the secondary spring is broken Some of these problems were on my first trip with it. Took it to the dealer and they told me they couldn't find a problem with it.

I checked mine and it is good. Some are sucking in and actually cracking the tank. BRP is warrantying those. Mine is building pressure and won't release until you take the cap off.

They just came out with the filter vent for the 900 turbo. Guys are saying on DOOtalk that it doesn't work. Some were taping off every vent and even taping off the intercooler opening but were still getting frozen steering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
