If you want to see the Front Diff change, see my video at the link here: • Front Differential Flu...

Great tip on making sure the fill hole plug can come off without a problem before draining!!

@JoshuaGammon 2 жыл бұрын

Oh yes. I heard of a few people that drain it then find out the fill hole is buggered. Leaves ya in a bit of a pickle.

You can also buy a hand pump ( looks like the one from fast orange hand soap ) from Canadian tire and put it in the bottle of fluid. And pump it in. I use it on my 11 850 for all my fluid changing.

I know you answered in an earlier comment but what type of Polaris fluid? They have several.

@JoshuaGammon 3 жыл бұрын

AGLfor the rear. Demand drive for the front 👍

How often do you need to do this? Just bought a 450 with 900 miles and wondering if it’s necessary or if I can wait a bit.

@JoshuaGammon 2 жыл бұрын

It's all in the owners manual. I do it once a year. 👍

Wash your machine before fluid maintenance to keep the dirt and grease out of your way.

Hey, have you had any issues with the power steering on the 570? Mines out...

@JoshuaGammon 2 жыл бұрын

This model doesn't have power steering. I'm not a fan of all the fancy stuff for something I'm going to go into the wood alone with. Just simple and needs to work.

@KelseyGustafson Ай бұрын

I've read quite a bit of complaints on Polaris forums about people having issues with EPS. The two common responses were because it's electronic power steering, make sure you have a solid battery connection. The other comments were that the relay was faulty because of poor manufacturer protection assembly, and to replace it. About 25.00 at an auto parts store. I hope this information helps.

What is the rear diff fluid

@JoshuaGammon 3 жыл бұрын

Use the Polaris AGL fluid

@Clarkstonlife 2 жыл бұрын

Dumb question but is the transmission fluid the same as the rear differential? They are not separate correct?

@JoshuaGammon 2 жыл бұрын

There are two different fluids. Make sure you check your owners manual for your year make model

@Clarkstonlife 2 жыл бұрын

@@JoshuaGammon Ok in my 2018 Sportsman 450 the front takes about 9oz of demand drive fluid and the rear is both the transmission/rear differential which takes a quart of AGL fluid. Finished yesterday not too bad. I had to remove the winch to access the front.
