Front end noise

have a noise in front end, can also feel it in floor. have put in neutral and coasted down hill and can still here and feel it... I know it is the drive train, but do I need to worry... there is no play in front end of drive train that I can feel. any ideas... Thanks in advance

check your drive shat that goes from motor to the ftont. may be at the yoke on the front of it. or you may need to tighten the hub up.

i felt the same thumping in mine and it turned out to be a bad tie rod end.

That is what I am thinking.

Extra info... only have 1150 miles and 3.5 months old. ...

tighten wheel hub?

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 ..

yea, may try that, few weeks ago, there was a sound that sounded like something was wrapped around DS and was hitting as it spun, than it quit.... will pull floor tomorrow and see if there is something in there.

I don't know what that could be.....keep us posted...thanks

Hopefully it will be an easy fix

already talked to shop, gonna take tomorrow and let them listen to it and see if it is a problem.... also gonna replace the bendix in starter, misses sometimes

but gonna pull floor in morning and see if I can see anything... guess I will pull wheels and check hubs also... and anything else I can find

Ok. Keep us posted

Could be many things. Check tierods,bushings,balljoints, shock bolts, hub nuts and driveshaft yoke/u joints

Or you could just the music up louder, but that don't always fix the problem. lol

I got that crazy rattling brake caliper in the front of mine. COmpletely different from what you are hearing, but concerning/annoying none the less.

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

Thanks. I will check it out.

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.

i have heard a few rattles on mine. seems to me that Jack Danials takes care of most of the issues.

I have the sound system now, can just drown out all the bad sounds
