Awesome instructional video....thank you so much!! I have been looking for this type of video for my 2011 Polaris 850XP forever. Words can't describe how much I appreciate this video. Time for me to get to work changing my ATV fluids.
Awesome, Michael! Glad we could help you get the job done. Happy wrenching and riding!
These videos are so helpful! I'm about to purchase my first Polaris atv(used). Not only is this helping me to know what to look for before buying, but I'm learning about how to do the proper maintenance to it before taking it for its first ride. Thank you very much.
T
Thanks so much for doing this video. Makes the job for me easier!
A big thank you from France and all my gratitude for your great videos.
I have many regrets for not being able to order the material from you because of the European rules on the transport of fluids.
My heart is with you.
I just bought a 2005 Sportsman 500 This video was extremely Helpful Thank you
I got a 2006 Polaris sportsman 450 H.O. and this helped me so much
What would we do without Partzilla videos? Thanks so much. Handy tip... when you are draining the transmission oil, you can use a half funnel or form-a-funnel to keep the oil from draining on to the forward skid plate and making another mess to clean up.
Excellent Video and the information was excellent as a new ATV owner I had no idea different fluids went into different locations.
Thank you for the clarity on which lub. goes where. Very helpful!!!
followed your procedure and completed everything with no issues -thank you
John is the absolute best. I have watched a ton of his videos and they are all done the way they should be. THE RIGHT WAY HAHA. If you do what he says then you'll have a great running machine. Thanks John.
Great video. Simple and to the point. Very helpful to maintain my 2020 850 Trail.
I wonder what the equivalent generic versions are of these fluids. Like 75w140 gear fluid front or rear, ATF for the transmission? I'm assuming there's no wet clutches so does the 5w50 oil have to be designed for motorcycles or could it be formulated more for a car?
Thank you for the video sir! Bought a 850 touring last year and wanting to change all 4 fluids you covered in your video. Perfect !
You're very welcome, Buck! Glad we could help! How are you liking the 850?
Thank you very much, I/We all appreciate the service directives.
2007 sportsman 800 x2. The drain bolt is in the front of the front diff, by the left tire. Also, Polaris said, active decent fluid ADC, IS now demand drive fluid ADF. Its demand drive front, agl for trans, and angle drive fluid for the rear on mine. 3 fluids. 4 spots.
appreciate all these how to videos it is a great help
Thanks, Jim! Glad you're digging it. Sorry we missed your comment -- hoping to see you around the 'tube again!
You are such a BIG help I don’t know what I would do without you 😊,,, MUCH THANKS 🙏
Well described, thankyou
Excellent video! Thank you. Very descriptive and good video!
Great video all I can say is thanks because it help me a lot, I just replace all the fluids to my 850 xp with the help of your videos👍
Awesome, Ricardo! You're welcome! We love to hear updates like this. Glad you were able to get it done yourself; you can save lots of $$ that way... and it's fun once you know what you're doing.
John you're a beast. Hope all is well, great video keep up the good work
Fantastic simple video. Thank you for the help sir
Thanks for the video. I was able to change the front deferential, the rear deferential and the transmission oil in my 2007 efl Polaris spokesman 700 twin
Well done Sir. I feel good about changing my fluids today. Thank you
The front diff being low on gear oil, if for say owner of the Polaris never had done any maintenance. I'd say there was not enough gear oil put in at the factory when the bike was built. Even if you buy a atv new do not assume all fluids are correct capacity fill, check them first to be sure.
Part of pdi at dealer is checking the fluids to make sure
5:48 a good tip from bleeding lots of furnaces. That valve can he turned a couple more times. It makes the bleed process faster. 7:30 tinfoil has always helped keep the fluids where I want them.
This was the most informative video out there for this line of quads. I have a 2014 550 Sportsman due for a fluid change, and this tutorial was great. Thank you and look to do more business with you at Partzilla
Thanks, Mykol! Glad the video helped you get the job done. Looking forward to seeing you on Partzilla.com. We have a full line of genuine parts for 7 different versions of the 2014 550 Sportsman: www.partzilla.com/parts/search/Polaris/ATV/2014/parts.html
Partzilla.com I'm thinking of buying a 2016 Polaris Sportsman's Touring SP 850 X2 up from the dealership brand new only 1.6 miles I asked if they would put A winch with synthetic rope hand warmers front and back 4 my wife 2 mirrors hand guards 1 very nice helmet and goggles and the the other helmet and goggles I would pay 50% off tax title O R V sticker all 4 $12,000 minus the 1 set of helmet and goggles is this a good deal or should I wait till 2017 850 Polaris Sportsman's come out in no rush and what is your pros and cons on the Polaris Sportsman's from 2011 2 2016 Thanks very much for your time and thoughts
Thank you for taking the time to make this very informative vid!

+Adam Wolfcale Adventures: Thanks, Adam! Glad you got some good information. Thanks for watching!
Great video and thanks. Will this same procedure work for a 2007?
Thank you for the helpful information
Thanks for your videos they have been very helpful
Greetings from Finland. You have best videos on youtube about ATV repairs. Thank you very much. I own -11 850 XP and i needed to install power commander on it, because in Finland Tractor registered ATV's speed limit is 40 Kmh. Now i dont have limiter on it. It goes full speed, but in Finland it's illegal. I wonder if this power commander5 is the answer to my problem... maybe you do video of installing it... sorry for my bad English. Thanks again your great videos!
Hi Jukeli! Thanks for watching our videos and for the nice compliments. Glad we are able to help you work on your ATV way over on the other side of the Atlantic in Finland. We've added how to install a Power Commander 5 to our list of video suggestions. I'll shoot you a comment if we are able to get the video shot for you. All the best from The States!
Great video thanks!!
Thank you. Very well done.
Great Video as always ...Thanks !!!
Great videos! Where do I get the pump to add the new fluids? Thanks.
Can you use the same pumper for all three of the fluids and not worry about them mixing slightly, like with what's left of the previous fluid in the tube? Great video bye the way. I'm sure this procedure is quite similar for the 2016 SP 850 model. Thanks.
Yes, you can use the same pump, the slight residual won't have an effect.
What a great video. Thank you so much. Question unrelated...a lot of Sportsmans clunk when taking off fwd or reverse. It’s not coming from engine. Sounds like drivelineish possibly. Do you know what I’m talking about? Any idea how to go about addressing this issue?
You can try to lower your idle speed a little and see if that helps. It's a common thing.
thank you. very helpful
Thanks from your very informative video! One can always learn something by watching these! :)
Thanks, Juha! Glad we were able to help
Hi very helpful video! thank you for the step by step ! Just serviced my 2009 sportsman 850 XP Successfully thanks to your video ! I noticed a leak on the active decent control. I don't have a clue where to start hoping you could walk me through it. my first Polaris . Thanks again !
Start by cleaning it down with brake cleaner. Then go for a ride, bring it back in the shop and see if you can spot where the leak originates.
Bleeder valve wrench size?
Maybe the age and usage of the fluids goes to show the quality and durability of the polaris products... at the same time giving evidence that all the extra service checks and fluid changes are another marketing strategy, clearly designed to target the uninformed and inexperienced into believing in “regularly scheduled maintenance” being nessecary, just to sell more products and pay for an hourly tech rate... thanks for the proof that we can stretch beyond and safely get 2x-3x the life span from our fluids. 👍😎👍
Thanks for posting your videos. They are very helpful. I have a small leak coming from my descent control mechanism. Where the axel goes in. I'm hoping it's just a seal. Do you happen to have a video explaining that? Thanks a lot!
can you show how to do a proper coolent flush on polaris sportsman
Great idea, Antonio. We'll add that to our list of video suggestions. Thanks for watching!
Awesome video, great info!
I am try to get the part #for the drain and the fill bolt gear-case for a 2012 Polaris 850 efi
great vid thanks for the post
Thanks for watching, Mark! Glad you found it helpful.
good video
great video
Thanks, Farm Freak!
is the transmission fluid what also runs the read differential on a 2015 570 sportsman?? I can find info on oil, transmission and front Diff fluid changes but it seems like no one has ever done a video on the rear diff.
Rear diff should use the Angle Drive Fluid.
ok so its a separate and distinct set of drain and fill holes for the transmission and rear Diff. Correct?? I can find all sorts of videos for maint on the 2015 570 but no one seems to have a video for the rear diff fluid swap. I just feel more comfortable on the first attempt after viewing a video tutorial Thanks for the reply and great videos !!!
@@johnbalogna803 Ottima spiegazione sapresti cambiare anche olio della ADC..il mio e uno sportsman XP1000 2017..GRAZIE..peccato mai nessuna spiegazione in italiano....
Excellent explanation would you know how to change also ADC oil .. mine and a sportsman XP1000 2017..GRAZIE..peccato never an explanation in Italian ....
Exellent video and thanks for making them! Have you done a vid on changing the coolant? Not sure how to flush the coolant and how much coolant is required to do so. Thanks in advance.
We don't have a video up yet, but we will add it to the suggestion list. The coolant capacity of the Sportsman 850 is 2 qts.
Please help me I have a 2017 Polaris ACE 570 and I have all the 3 fluids for the drive line system there are no videos for a drive line system change for the ACE 570 can I use this video for my ACE 570 drive line system change
Thanks for the great instructional video. Wil this procedure and fluid type be the same on a 2014 Polaris Sportsman 550 EFI?
I use a funnel when draining gear oil, no mess ;)
Well, that's no funnel. :P
xcellent explanation would you know how to change also ADC oil .. mine
and a sportsman XP1000 2017..GRAZIE..peccato never an explanation in
Italian ....
Thank you so much
Good vidéo
Hey buddy how you doing I have a 2004 Polaris 700 Sportsman just trying to figure out why it's locking in 4-wheel drive it don't want to come out of 4 wheel drive if you can please help me I would appreciate it
Do the front fluids apply to a 2012 sportsman as well? Specifically the active descent control fluid?
Hola buenas tardes me podrías colaborar con un vídeo de como calibrar cuerpo de aceleración de polares sportsman cilindrada 850 y 570 muchas gracias por su atención prestada saludos de España,
Sellam and thank you guys
I have a 09 sportsman 850 xp eps. When it gets below freezing my steering locks up. Does the eps have a fluid that needs changed. Sorry if this is a dumb question. This is my first atv.
Thank you!
Great video guys. Question, my local polaris dealer said that I could use AGL in the rear gearbox. They said it is good for transmission and rear gearbox. I am wondering what you guys think about that.
U have any videos on changing front diff seals on 450 sportsman if not how is the Job difficulty thanks
Dont understand the reservoirs under the storage mines a 2018 850 do I have them
some say to use angle fluid inthe front gear case and some say to use demand fluid I am confused what is it please tell me what to use for what THANK-YOU................................
What should I do for a check up on a 4 wheeler for buying it?
My gearbox and transmission are all in one I use AGL correct?
How much fluid you added to a 2006 Polaris Hawkeye 300 read differential
I have a 2015 Polaris 570 is that demand drive fluid on front diff.
I have a 2009 800 and I cant find any videos for changing all the fluids and grease. Can you do a video on a 2009 or is the 2010 or 2008 the Same thx
So the ADC fluid is part of the front diff fluid? I have a little reservoir that says ADC fluid only. I understand servicing the front diff fluid but what about the ADC fluid? 2008 sportsman 500 EFI X2
hey dear. thank you for your useful videos
as i have read on Polaris Lubrication guide there is 32.oz (950 ml) of transmission fluid.
but in this video i see that you added 37.Oz,so how much we should add???
thanks
can you do a video on how to change the radiator fluid for this machine? Thanks.
Good idea, Tyler. We'll add it to the suggestion list!
Yep, thanks, I was going to change the fluid in mine but can't find a good video
I'm looking on how to change all the oils on my polaris magnum 325 4x4 2002.. im not familiar with this machine at all dont know anything about it really so I'm not sure how many different oils there are.
Would these steps work for a 2005 sportsman 800 efi
can I use the same pump for all 3 types of fluids without flushing the pump each time
Yes, there is no need to flush the pump in between. The residual that would mix with each fluid is minimal and nothing to worry about.
Do you have a video of replacing the rear drive shaft (prop shaft) by chance?
Hello How are you I look amazing videos nice work I have a question I have a 2018 Polaris 850Sportmen Green I just purchased three months ago and they ship it to overseas Evrope in Montenegro so I went there I enjoyed rides to the mountains but happens to times he was getting check engine overheat fan it was working everything fine so I like to know you and pinion Watch she can make a problem to get overheated air sensor thermostat oh thermostat sensor when I was going in the mountain it was 234f when I started overheating I was driving A passenger with me and I have a question also when you drive in the mountain what is the best to put Shift high or low Thank you very much
I have a 2015 Sportsman xp 1000 is it the same oil type and same amount... Would i be able to sub the oils also..??
would this be the same on my 2014 polaris 570 sportsman?
How often do you suggest changing the fluids and oil
would this be the same steps and oil/lubricants for a 2005 Polaris Magnum 330 4x4?
I have a 2007 700 sportsman. Does my front diff need the 2 part oil change? I dont see any kind of bleeder or reservoir up near my head light pod?
On the front gear case that oil he refilled it with is that the same as SAE 80w-90 Gear oil??
Demand drive fluid is essentially transmission fluid. The AGL fluid is the gear oil.
is it the same fluids on a 2003 700 sportsman
Question, what lift are you using for UTV’s? Looking to add one to my garage here at home.
i have 2018 scrambler 1000, when u were doing damand drive fluid..i dont have a reservoir to bleed line like your Sportsman. any thoughts
Are all three of the oils synthetic and what weight is each one
ok I have a 2010 Polaris Sportstman 850XP and I drained my front gear case and all I could get in it back filling it was 6 oz and then it started dripping out fill hole so I don't get it manual says 9>3 oz ?? any help be appreciated
are these the same fluids for a 2005 Polaris 330 Magnum 4x4
I have a question? During the transmission oil change, I notice part of my drain plug was shaved off and the was something that I can't see but can feel with my finger is hanging in there and am wondering what might that be. Any ideas?
I have a 99 Polaris 335 Sportsman, how many types of fluid does it have & locations.
How do you feel about flushing out the gearbox with a cleaner of some sort? I would do that before refilling. That would clear out any debris
Shouldn't be necessary, if there is that kind of debris, you'll need to do a lot more than spray it. The debris should collect at the bottom. If anything, run some oil through to flush it.
