| driveshaft run right under your gas foot , you may have a rock or something stuck in there that the yoke is hitting , just take that center part out and check it or drop the skid plate .. | |

There's an adjustment screw on the caliper that might help that.... | |

| OK, finally got to the shop today... Service MGR looked at it, took it for a ride and than we yanked and pulled on everything under the front end... only thing we could find was some play in the front axles. He called Polaris and they said to pull the front axles and grease the splines (not anti-seize, grease) said if you drive through lots of water, the grease will hold up better.
Also, note to all. if you have any issue, have dealer call or email polaris with the issue, your vin and miles. that way when the same thing causes issue later it can be covered under warranty and they cant say you should have brought it in sooner... also he told me that if you are having an issue that is intermitent than video it with sound. says polaris has done warranty work that was previously rejected since it could not be recreated in shop. | |
