@@iansgarage8603 it takes forever!
@@RuggedAdventures Ikr! I love your videos btw!!
@@iansgarage8603 thanks! I need to get out and make some more!
@@RuggedAdventures Can we see some more RZR videos soon?
I’ve a 2013 800s. I love it for what I do. Where I go is pretty much rock crawling and it does great.
Right after I bought my 2011 800s in 2016 but before it blew up (ahem), I took my RZR out to the gentleman in Winnemucca, NV and he got me into the "tight nut club". He didn't charge me anything (GASP!) but I left a hefty 'donation'. And as I mentioned in the comment section on your other video on why to buy 800's, I now have a 2018 800s engine in my 2011. It has all the power I need. When we used to have ATV's, I always said if you could do 60 mph, you were on the wrong road . . . Just sayin'.
Who in Winnemucca NV?
I actually just blew up my Robby Gordon 2012 800 and am super tired of the low powered engine and weak trans.
Will a 2018 drop right in ?? Looking to upgrade this to a wheel spinnin monster
My 14' 4 800 with 2k miles rear diff pinion nut was about 3 threads from coming off. Thankfully, I saw someone mentioned it in the comments for your previous video. Took the diff out myself in about an hour and took it to a local offroad shop where they used red loctite and gave it 3 ugga duggas.
Did you just reuse the old parts? Glad you caught it in time!
@@RuggedAdventures @Rugged Adventures Me too, rear diffs are expensive and hard to find. I reused everything except the seal which normally gets damaged on removal. Bigjeepman10 has has a great how to video on the repair.
Good info. Not ready to throw 30k on new turbo unit. Till then thanks for the info.
I think I definitely would have covered the dowel pin in the motor as a motor problem point too, if they get stuck your motor looses oil pressure, best way to avoid it is when doing a fluid change take it out with a magnet polish it yourself or take it to a jeweler and have them do it for like 5-10$! Totally worth doing.
Great video but forgot to mention the oil pressure relief valve issue
Also forgot the rod knock it will eventually get..lol
hahaha rolling the dice man love that ive been doing maintanance on my 2010 800s and now im scared this could happen to me but its looking like a tough job! right now im getting a whining sound at certain rpms kinda like a gear whine or somthing in the clutch im not sure but its pretty annoying an loud i replaced the belt didnt help it does yours have a whine during accelerating or driving?
best air filter you can buy is the donaldson double filter set up!
Love my 800s
They are great machines!
The 570 is the toughest I've got a 2012 570, 2014 800.
The 570 is by far a more reliable machine.
I installed an epi clutch with a green spring and that has made a hug difference.
I did a Dalton clutch kit and it really helped mine as well
@@RuggedAdventures mines coming tomorrow for my 2 seat 14 800s, looking forward to a noticeable difference I’ve heard so much about.
Good morning, I have a 2011 rzr 4 800. I have a chirping noise in the belt area when slowing down. Have changed ujoints, carrier bearing and belt but still have the chirping noise. I just noticed that the rear end is out of alignment, the left tire is about 2" closer to the front than the right tire. To me that explains the chirping noise, alignment problem at tranny. Is there any way to adjust this alignment? Thanks
I had problems with my rear diff. Something let go and it made a big hole through the differential so hard to buy a new one. I have the 2014 rzr 800 s le and had 7500 km on it
I've seen several of them grenade like that, and it's the pinion nut issue described in the video that causes it. The nut backs off, the pinion rides up on the ring gear more often than not busting the shaft just in front of the gear itself and then hits the case and busts out the side of it. Polaris never has admitted to the issue, never did a recal and never made an official repair. If you get a new differential it will have the same issue so due the DIY repair on it yourself prior to installation. Most dealers won't admit to knowing what you're talking about so get online and track down a set of tools to borrow or make your own if you have the skillset. There is also a Facebook group on the problem where you can buy the tools or potentially borrow them.
@@jeffking6672 mine just granaded today :(
Thank you for posting this regarding the fb group, (Update: I can't find any such on FB.
Can you post a link, or the name of the group?)
Keep in mind when using a K&N filter you MUST spray the oil on it. This will keep the dust out.
Even so they let tons of dust through and will junk your 800 engine.
@@RuggedAdventures I have never seen good things from any k&n air filter. People think they work better and want to feel they do because of the money they spent only thing I’ve ever seen was CHeck engine lights on pickups. I’ll steer clear
You absolutely HAVE to have a pre filter with KN. No exceptions
I and n filters sprayed with oil is nothing more than a oily mud pie .
link to the hardware?
My youngest brother has seen engine failures due to air filter problems
Maintenance ! It will run for ever Polaris has built fine machines if you drive them respectively and do Maintenance
What speed are you seeing out of your rzr 4 800? I’m only seeing 42mph at 6300 rpms
I guess he didn’t see your comment. I’m pretty sure you should be able to get more speed than that
Do you have any maintenance videos ? I just got my rzr 800 and all I know how to do is the oil change ...
Only the boot change. I need to do a little service soon and I'll grab the gopro too!
My 2013 rzr800s just started reving up and down on its own while driving. It will not idle without giving more gas. Anyone else have this issue
Wish I saw this before I bought the K&N :(. I did get the pre-filter sock. Will that help any? Or just go paper?
The pre-filter makes a huge difference .
@@BigRedGuy thank you, man! Just like everything else, it seems as though maintenance is the key
Have you come across a solution to the 800 ‘s not starting when their hot?
Probably a bad fuel pump. I had that, swapped the pump, and never had it again.
wife bought me a surprise 2011 rzr 4 800 Bobbie Gordon, anybody got suggestion. ya i'm stuck with it
is there a way to tell if you have 1 or the other pinion nut ?
Very, very early 2008s supposedly don't have any issues but the rest of the 800s do.
I have a2010 800s,runs great then spits and sputters like I'm out of gas and dies,not out of gas,fire's right up and down the the road we go,does it over and over and the more it continues the less miles i can get(sometimes less than 100yards) any advice would be appreciated
Sounds like a bad fuel pump (highly common)or clogged fuel tank vent.
What was it? Maybe bad coil?
I had a problem with mine shutting off after it warmed up and wouldn’t run good until it cooled off….turned out it was bad plugs…blew my mind, had a friend with a Harley acting the same turned out to plugs also it’s unreal
my rzr 800s does 75mph
Did they fix the diff problem on the 2010
The diff problem affected all 800s other than maybe some of the very early 2008s.
1:07 what da dog doing?
Why is your rear stabilizer un done
Flex and ride quality. Much, much better.
V
what about the rod knocking....
I haven't heard that as much as the other 3.
Bolt on turbo kit
Nitrous is also bolt on!! 😉
Header glows red
I've never had that. Either a lean condition, often a weak fuel pump, or a plugged exhaust likely.
You have to run a pre filter on a KN. And sorry your wrong. Polaris actually put out an article that the air intake boots were leaking …. And how to fix. Which was silicone. Yes I have all this paperwork from Polaris. Aftermarket air filters are fine … Polaris filters are junk. A uni good r something similar is fine
