Anyone having any problems with their intakes pealing away from the framing noticed this over the weekend and also had 2 other sleds in our group who had the same problem one if separated from the framing and had to be tapes up.

That post was in reference to the rave cover melting. Sorry I don't know how to quote posts from my phone. Nothing really to take a pic of there lol
I did however break a hole on one of my air intakes and I'm going to look into one of those vent cover things you posted up, thanks

Parking break sensor.... Does anyone know where it is? Mine is flashing&beeping the f'ing light continuously. Thinking it is the same as the break light sensor on the handle?

My 13 f'd up yesterday. Started out by not pulling anything over half throttle to now barely even being able to drive up my ramp onto the deck. I think it's the fuel pump because when it first started acting up if it sat for a minute or two it would go for a few minutes before having issue. It did get me home but it's in bad shape now. It also will barely start now and when it does it is very rough and only idling around 900 rpm.

Yes it is and I've busted a few of those. Chances are one of the mounts is broken causing it to stay on

Mine was showing Check engine and the coolant temp light went on. This was just after I got the new coolant clamps fixed...This was at the start of the ride on both days. I just shut off the sled, and the problem went way after restarting. I got the same while descending down a hill later yesterday.. I am not sure if it's just an air bubble in the system, or a bad thermostat, or sensor...

It just said check engine... the hot water temp light goes on.

I have an MBRP, but never had anything happen ever before I had the coolant leak

Did the dealer fix the coolant leak? Maybe they reflashed it while it was in there. I got the new flash installed on mine last weekend and noticed the same thing happened to me twice on the weekend.

My wife's sled does the same thing with her MBRP can. I thought it would go away after brake in but it didn't.

What were we expecting, a whole new axle design and replacement?? It should work.

Looks like the keeper off of the exhaust sensor. Chincey I'd say..

I can't have an opinion. I'm sure it will work. Just the same as the shaft clamp works on the pros. Just seems to me like a 5cent fix on my 15000$ sled. IMO of course...

Cause I want it fixed, for my own piece of mind, so I don't get stuck somewhere like my buddy did with his 13 xm...it's just a good thing I had my xp axle at home and not too far away, went back down and got it, went back in the dark, bolted it up and limped it out... Fawked up his drivers, rail tips ect... He paid for it all outa his pocket...

So it's not in the back of my mind, jeez did I check them this ride

It's bullch!t
