You haven't run into one of the guys in our rinding group, apparently. He bought a '25 858 last year, and it plagued him most of the season with codes and being forced to ride in limp mode. I think he had it in the shop at least 3 times? Fast forward to this season, we were in the U.P. and we made it to Houghton on Day 1 ... had breakfast, and as soon as we were getting ready to head north it threw the code again. Pissed off, he headed over to M&M to have them look at it - and was so pissed off he was debating on just dumping it and finding a new sled. He told us to just go, and he would either limp it back to Krupp's, or he'd be on a new sled and would meet us later in the day. Fast forward 4 hours, we met him right back in Houghton, and he was on a new '26 858 ZR! LOL
Well, go figure, the next day we're heading out for a south loop and about 10 minutes into the ride ... HE POPPED THE SAME EXACT CODE. We were joking within our group, "Does Dave have a sidearm on him, because if he does I'm going nowhere near him!" He ended up limping the new sled back to the resort, threw it on his trailer and headed back to M&M in Houghton. They got it fixed this time - something to do with the APV's and the servo motor, and the bracket they're mounted on? Needing to be adjusted (bent) properly. Thankfully the sled hasn't skpped a beat since then, and he's racked up 1800 miles this season.
So, nope - you're not alone @soeaster
