2024 Summit X Turbo stumble
- Thread starter mtnxr
- Start date
I have two of these sleds and thus far NO SIGN of similar behavior.
Yes, completely stock.
My 2024 X turbo just out of break in is doing that too. I only noticed it the last couple days, and only when starting out slowly, like you mentioned.
It kind of feels like the clutch slipping and then catching or something. I thought it might be a belt deflection issue but everything looks fine.

Colorado elevation and deep sticky snow = bog. Keep the air intakes and cvt intake clean. On my 24 turbo on deeps days I will rev and the sled does this weird “glitch” noise almost sounds like it’s flatlining for a second and then revs up. I only notice it on deep days above 10k feet. Then again it had that weird noise and other bogs from new and is now seized at 1000 miles.
I noticed it on my sled putzing around at 1,200 ft on a groomed trail. No snow on the vents. And only when I would start off slowly e.g. with a kid or dog on my lap.
Yes or even a slow cruise speed and flip or hold the throttle @ 1/2 or so.
Never figured mine out. It blew up at 1k miles and had a lot of electrical issues after that too. It was a lemon. I have a 24 x and freeride now that don’t have the same problem.
I have a pair of 24 Turbos.
One stock and one with the iBackshift Clutch Kit
Thus far neither of them have exhibited this stumble..
This right here stock skidoo clutching sucks granted I'm 250 with gear but Joey's kit is tits
By the way 24 turbo expert 165 clutch kit since new no stumble no nothing but smiles
I wouldn't go so far as to say it SUCKS, but the iBackShift Kit makes it WAY THE HECK BETTER!
Same issue for me, thought it was a fluke the first time. 24 turbo. Twice on two seperate days, right after start up, roll away slowly at first and then try and pin it, nothing. It feels like the engine is limiting itself electrically, almost like a bad key but above engagement rpm. Won't rev, even if you stab the throttle a few times. Kill it, restart, no issues. Runs great otherwise. Would be helpful to know what set of inputs or systems on the sled would cause this issue. Not an exhaust bog, pretty sure not an intake bog-- my backup screen under the hood is clean too. But to be fair both pow days, some snow on vents but not plugged. 5k feet elevation, PNW snow. Leaves fuel or spark, or maybe throttle safety of some sort? Like I said, seems like the sled is just limiting itself. PITA issue because it's so intermittent. Yah i'm sure it's a rare issue but no need to chime in how great ur sled runs, help us troubleshoot.

my 2025 is doing the same thing. Sometimes when I start it, it sounds like its running on one cylinder and then just clears itself like nothing but some times at really slow speeds it seems to do what you guys are talking about. But after a few seconds its good again and may not do it for a few days. Its odd for sure. Glad I am not the only one.
If it is an electrical gremlin i sort of doubt we will ever know. One thing that is not stock on my sled is no tail light, I know that circuit grounding out could cause issues on older doos. Could also be something with the mapping has been tweaked from 23 but it’s not fouling plugs so I don’t think random fueling issue. Could it be a little vapor lock from under hood heat?id think that would make it start hard. Both times the sled was working hard, got shut off rapidly (tether pull) and sat for a while (5 minutes maybe) I’m not too worried about it but it would be nice to know.
