2024 9R

[brad1960]

My 9 R is not using enough oil. Anybody else experiencing this ?Half the amount it should be using Polaris said nothing they can do !

 

[turboless terry]

Get it while the warranty is on

 

[Chadly]

Run it until it grenades. Just think of how much money you are saving!

 

[shattuck]

Get the ezylynk and turn up the oil pump

 

[madmax]

How do you know it’s not using enough?

 

[RBalazs]

Chad does have a valid point You’re almost getting paid to ride

In all seriousness… Your dealer is aware clearly and they can’t fix it. Did they say stop riding it?? If not, ride the snot out of it! Either that or stare at it sitting in the garage like Chad does with his fancy cars

How do you know for sure how much it’s using? Every Polaris I have had. Oil usage depends on how hard they’re ridden how heavy and deep the snow is. Are you trail riding or hill, climbing, or riding in the trees. Serious question. Not taking shots at you.

Good advice. I’ll only add: keep the local Heli phone number stored in the Sat phone.

Dealer said they they cant do anything , burned 8 gallons, oil dropped 1/2 inch. That was deep pow , my 850 would burn a quart on the same ride. Buddy has a new 9 r burns oil like his 850 ..

Could be you're just not using as much throttle as you used to, and your buddy is.


Ride it to the bars as much as possible. Get it to fail under warranty if it's going to ever fail.

@brad1960 - other than the oil; what are your thoughts on the 9r so far? And I'm guessing this is your first year on a 9r?

I went with a 9r this year and was on an 850 matryx previously. Still 0 miles on the 9r due to the horrible snow pack.

Next few rides see how much gas you use and oil. Top up after the ride. And post what you are using. Then can figure out you ratio
