Polaris Ranger 1000XP Oil Change and 25 Hour Break In Service
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 мар 2021
- In this video Tony shows you how to properly do the 25 hour break in service on a Polaris Ranger 1000XP. He shows you how to change the engine oil and filter, the front differential fluid, and the transmission fluid. He also instructs you on how to service your air intake filter. Lastly, he covers how to reset your service clock on the gauge cluster.
Just to clarify. The owners manual does not say to replace the front differential fluid or transmission fluid at 25 hours. It says to inspect/check the fluid level. However, we strongly suggest changing the fluids after the first 25 hours. You will typically see a higher amount of particulates during your first fluid change. We think it is best to get those particulates out of the front differential and transmission sooner rather than later.
The Polaris Hilliard style front differentials do not hold a lot of fluid (approximately 8.5 fluid oz.) The armature plates in the differential constantly wear on the housing internally when in AWD. Because of that wear and the low fluid volume, the fluid is filled with particulates very quickly. The metal particulates in the fluid can lower the effectiveness of the magnet so your AWD is sporadic. We suggest changing the front differential fluid at least twice as often as the manual says, every 50 hours/500 miles compared to 100 hours/1,000 miles.

Very well done! Thank you! Great pacing, not too fast or slow. Also, realy great audio in a tough environment to get a good recording. I'm hard of hearing so it means a lot that you're clear.
I’ve watched this video every time I’ve done maintenance on my 21 ranger and I gotta say it has been an incredible resource. Thank you!
Also, side note. That’s not an xp. Most of the info is the same as the xp but it’s definitely a different machine.
Concise and thorough. Rare qualities these days. Thank you.
Mind the oil fill cap! A careless arm can knock it into never-never land. Great video. Thanks!
Awesome video! Exactly what I need to know for my first service. To many times dealers don't do the job correctly. On day one had many issues with my local dealer. I understand every dealer is different but my experience is I wouldn't trust them with a oil change!
Just purchased the 2024 Polaris RANGER 1000 XP PREMIUM. Thanks so much for this info as i skipped the maintenence packages thinking i could do it myself.
Outstanding video. Just had my 2022 Polaris ranger delivered today. Your maintenance info procedures were very helpful. Thanks amigo!👍
Thank you for your video - just changed all the fluids using your video as a guide.
Best service video I’ve seen yet! Excellent video
Just did this service at about 30 hours. The front diff fluid was very very dark. I think I will be changing it way more frequently considering it's.suchna small amount of fluid. Great vid thanks a lot!!
Great video, thank you sir, I'm waiting for my Ranger 1000 crew, by watching your video I think I can do 25 hour break in at home
Fantastic video. Just bought the full service kit for my 2019 900 crew ($180) at the dealership. This vid answered all my questions.
Awesome
Great video you have a smooth and well explained delivery 👍🏻
Fantastic video! I greatly appreciate you making it !!
Thank you sir for the video it was very helpful and saved me money doing it myself.
I don’t have anything to compare this with but this looks excellent. 👍🏼
Thanks for a straight to the point video,
You're welcome
Thanks bro. Helped me out a lot!
Thanks for the information. Appreciate it man. I should be able to service my new ranger at home. 👌
No problem. Thanks for watching.
Great informative video! Thank you
Thanks for your video. Big help.
Great video
Great Video
Top notch video
Great video!
Very nice job on the video. It was excellent and covered all parts of the service clearly. This is as good as it gets.
Great video thanks for the information. A tip you can service the oil filter quite easily from under the passenger seat.
Thanks. That is true. We noticed that access when we were going over the battery and fuel lines.
Well done
Thank you
Thank You
just found this video. GREAT explanation/walk thru. Does polaris still sell the kit that has all of the fluids and supplies you need for this service and is it the same as the one for older models? Have a 2023 Ranger crew premium that is about due for this service
Yes, Polaris still sells the oil change kits. You can get them from your dealer, Amazon, and various online retailers.
Great video, super looking shop, is that thickness on the insulation working good for you? I have a shop I need to insulate.
Thanks. It worked well for the California climate I was in. A colder climate would need another inch or two.
Hvac with open cab? Must be add on?
The service chart for my 2021 1000 says to change engine oil and filter at 25 hours, and check the front gear case and transmission levels not change them. Should I?
We recommend changing them and explain why in the video description.
@@SXSGarageSorry I didn't read the video description before. Thanks for the response, I will definitely change them at your recommended intervals. Great video by the way.
Please tell me the OD size of the tube you attached to the funnel to fit in the Front Differential Transmission Fill ??? 😊 Thank You, Ed
Tubing goes by ID. I don't know if I still have the one in this video. I typically have some 3/16 or 1/4" clear tubing laying around. You can find it at places like Home Depot and Lowe's.
The service manual for my 2022 Northstar crew states the transmission should get 51 oz of AGL...Online it says 41 oz and this video states 44. Any idea why there are so many discrepancies? I followed my service manual, now I'm concerned I overfilled too much. Thank you for this quality video! I really appreciate the torque specs!
There could be differences in the housing and small changes with the gears changing the capacity. As long as you filled it up the the fill plug opening so it just started to drain out you will be just fine.
What kind of lift are you using. I like that you can elevate the machine and also get the tires from the lift also separately. Kinda looks like a double lift..
It's a generic 4 post drive on lift. It normally comes with one jack that slides front to rear, but I added a second one to it.
Ok when I bought my 2023 ranger the dealership told me there was no need to change diff fluids until 100 hr and the only thing I needed to change was engine oil so what do u think?
This is addressed in the video description.
When lining the neoprene bushings what kind of grease do you use?
For myself it's usually just what I happen to have in my grease gun at the time, usually red n tacky.
about what should it cost for the 1st time service ? thank you great video
that depends on several factors. If you are doing the service yourself and do the minimum according to the manual, it's only the cost of the filter and the couple quarts of oil. Also, depends if you have any issues that you notice during the lookover. If you do the service like we suggest you also have the cost of the front diff and trans fluids. If your filter is damaged or needing replaced then there's that cost. If you aren't doing the service yourself then there's the labor cost which varies greatly by shop and where you are in the country. It should only be 1-2 hours of labor depending on how much you are wanting looked at and if any issues are found.
My 2020 XP 1000 says it takes 6.8 Fl oz in the front gear case. Also my transmission says it takes 41oz not 44… Maybe there is a diff in the standard and xp?
I just checked a 19 service manual I have and it stated 8.5 for the front differential. The trans says 44 except the international model shows 40.5. The international model has the turf mode which takes up some of the space in the trans. I wouldn't get too hung up on separating out the exact amounts. Instead, fill each to the fill hole threads (which is stated in the manuals.). I would have to check online parts numbers to see if the non XP has the older smaller front diff like the old 900 XP. If so, that would explain a difference in capacity.
Yeah, it’s not a huge deal it just says not to overfill. Your video was very helpful in my maintenance! Very well done.
I'm considering buying one and 25 hours doesn't seem like a very long time between servicing... Looks like it will run into a fair amount of money?
It's not bad. The 25 hours is just the break in service which is pretty common with UTV's and SXS's. After that it's typically every 50 hours for the fluids. We recommend changing the front differential fluid in the Polaris machines more often than the manual calls for because it seems to help Hilliard differential function better. Partly because the capacity is so small, but that also means that just a quart of fluid lasts a long time.
@@SXSGarage Thanks and a great video.
I own a 2006 Polaris. Can you help me buy the electronic circuit box? I am ready to pay the money
The only fluid change at 25 is the engine oil? The others are inspect only?
According to the manual, yes. We talk about this in the video description.
Do the braking and transmission fluids really need to be changed? I though it was just the engine oil.
This is answered in detail in the video description.
Is there a good online seller youd recommend I can buy all this as a kit.??
I personally don't use the Polaris stuff for the most part so I don't have a regular place to get it. I think Tony got the fluids and filters for this video from the owner who got them from his local dealer. I would suggest joining a Facebook group and then supporting one of their vendors. There are plenty of groups out there.
@@SXSGarage Thanks for the reply I ended up ordering it all yesterday from a few different vendors..
That's not an XP 1000 it's a 1000 premium is there a difference in the service?
Correct. This machine is a 1000 and not a XP1000. We have it titled that way because the service procedure is the same for both machines. So by having it say XP 1000 we capture both viewers searching for 1000 and XP 1000.
I'm sure you did it, but you didn't mention it; check the dipstick after adding oil.
It's definitely good practice to check your oil dipstick after a fluid change as well as on a regular basis between servicing.
Where are all the grease points at? I see you didn’t do that but I believe it should be done every 25 hours
The service manual calls for every 50 hours, 500 miles, before long storage, or after lots of use in water. Regular grease points are at the slip yoke between the prop shafts, and the bushings of the front and rear sway bars if applicable. Some machines may have grease points at the suspension bushings.
What happens if it calls for 5w50 and I run 10w30
We wouldn't advise running oil outside of the specs the manual calls for. A 10w30 oil is thicker and has less of a range for temperature change. So it would be thicker in the winter/colder months, and then it would thin out and start to break down faster in the hotter temps. This would increase the wear on the engine during colder temps and engine starting. With the oil breaking down faster you would need to change your oil more often. Now if you needed oil on the side of the trail, some oil is better than no oil.
@SXSGarage bloke u nailed it korngrats yank
You left the rags under the oil filter. Otherwise great video
Lol filling the oil filter! It’s not a model T!
Yes, it is typically good practice to prefill the oil filter. That ensures that if the engine has not been started fairly recently that it is without oil the minimal amount of time. If you don't prefill the filter, that is just that much longer that the engine internals are not lubricated properly. There is debate on whether you should fill the center (filter exit) or only fill through the outer holes and let the oil seep through the filter media. Filling the center means that the oil would not completely be filtered. However some oil is better than no oil. Also, some oil is not filtered when cold either as it bypasses the filter media via the bypass valve.
This isn’t an XP 1000
Correct. This machine is a 1000 and not a XP1000. We have it titled that way because the service procedure is the same for both machines. So by having it say XP 1000 we capture both viewers searching for 1000 and XP 1000.
I find it absolutely crazy that it is required to change your oil every 25 hours. That’s what two dollars an hour cost for only oil and filter. Somebody is screwing somebody😜
The 25 hours is only the break in, or first oil change for the engine. After that it is every 50 hours or 6 months.
@@SXSGarage thanks for the clarification! My book sez oil chg , after 100 hours, six months or 1,000 miles. A huge diff🤗🥴🤪
