[QUOTE="Mr.Glock, post: 4230573, member: 32877"] I bought one of the first RZR 800s that was released in 08. I voided the warranty the first day, stripped it and built a custom cage that was worthy of saving a life. Then I started in on the engine. I did some research and found the front drive system was made by a Hilliard Mfg. Same company that builds the elect engagement sprague on Vermeer Hay Swathers we use on the farms. I was not falling for the colored fluids that Polaris stated to only use. I called Hilliard Mfg and spoke to a service engineer. Asked him what they put in the elect engagement units they built. He said they are shipped with Mobil 424 and Polaris drains it and puts in the colored version. Mobile 424 can be bought at Tractor Supply, it is a hydraulic/gear oil. $21 for a 2 gallon jug.. Beat Polaris price of $35 a qt. Then on to the other fluids in the transmission and transfer case. Same fluids. Engine oil and rear final drive take different fluids. I was also along that time finishing up the US on Goldwings. Long story short, I used Rotella 15w40 in all the wings I used, all the ATV’s and UTVs and in all my Dodge diesel powered trucks. As well as Walmart Supertech Filters who by the way are mfg by Champion. I put over 200k miles on each of the 6 Goldwings I used, used the same Rotella Oil in every ATV and UTV as well. It will stand up to the high revving oil shear that small engines has. It simply does not break down. But till your warranty is gone, so as they ask to fulfill warranty. Here are the first few RZRs we ran. The second and third ones were the two we raced with for 7 years. That second photo of a 09 800s I had at 130 HP at the wheel, I built a full Trinity Engine in it, factory was 56hp.
