Wow. I am usually always disappointed with the production of the DIY videos. But your producer made you look like the absolute pros you are. You used your 6 mins well and I didn't have to fast forward through shots of you looking for a tool, elevating your machine or petting your dog.. Very tight.. thank you.

Make sure to read your owners manual. On my 2020 xrt it states to torque the final gear oil drain plug to 17 ft pounds not the 7 stated in the video.

Thank you for this superb video. I’m servicing a 2016 Yamaha Kodiak 700 and the owners manual says the Final Gear oil type is Mobilfluid 424. I’ve researched this oil and it appears that this type of oil is the same as or near the same as hydraulic fluid. For the front differential the manual does specify SAE 80 API GL-4 Hypoid gear oil. I went to my local Yamaha shop where the ATV was purchased and bought the Yamaha lube 10W-40 oil and filter for the machine along with the 80 wt gear oil for the front differential. When I asked the parts guy for the Mobilfluid 424 oil for the Final gear change he looked at me puzzled and said he didn’t have it. Interesting too is that our 2016 Yamaha Viking side by side manual says use the 80 wt for both the front differential and the Final drive. I’m beginning to think the Mobilfluid 424 suggestion for the Kodiak 700 is a typographical error. Any insight that you can share regarding this matter? Thank you.

There are two drain plugs under my 2020 Kodiak EPS final drive. One thats under where the check bolt is located and another plug about 5 inches toward the front. You only drained one so can you tell me which one you removed to drain and what is the other one for? Thanks

If the seals on your differential we're leaking would oil would be coming out around this seals .if you're getting milky colored water and the deaf breather lines that are breathing getting it too deep in the water.

In a 2016 Yamaha grizzly 700, can you use the same oil for front and rear differentials?
@brianpiersol94123 жыл бұрын
Yes, I too have a 2016 baby brother Kodiak 700 and I used $10/ bottle of Yamalube Friction Modified Plus Shaft Drive Oil 80W-90 for both front Diff and rear final drive. One bottle will do both. Calls for Mobilube 424 in my owners manual for the rear final drive. It took me a while to find documentation from Yamaha that the Yamalube is fine to use for the final drive as an OK fluid to use instead of the Mobilube 424. Hope this helps.

So the first oil change on my new 2019 Grizzly 700 EPS is right around the corner. I assume break in oil is used in rear final gear, front diff, and engine oil. If that is so, I need to do all 3 in the first oil change too, correct?
