I've heard it both ways? I've never ran Polaris oil always ran either amsoil dominator or redline? Thanks.
Does it void ur warranty if u don't use Polaris oil?

Yes. You also need to use Polaris grease and only use Polaris gear bags and Polaris snow pants. If they see any pics of you wearing klim pants on tweeter your warranty is void.

Ive ran amsoil's interceptor oil in my last two sleds, Last season my pro hit the 2000 mile mark and decided to blow the top end. They put it under warranty no questions asked about the oil that was used, and they knew it wasent polaris oil.
Their are laws against just that practice, Magnusen-Moss Warranty Act, for one. This law protects the consumer from just such scams. As long as the oil you choose to run meets the minimum specifications published by the manufacturer you can not be denied coverage on those grounds.
Ignore the smart azzes in the previous posts. Their replies are as helpful as having a second azz hole.

Some people do have a second azz hole. It's located under their nose.
Your warranty is not affected by the brand of oil you use, as LH said... it just has to meet the minimum requirements.
I get a kick out of the funny comments...but not the name calling... even if you are friends, we all may not know that.

Actually had a Pooo dealership (Woodland Park, CO)tell me that they have special tests that they can do on the pistons/cylinders that can tell them if Poo oil wasn't used and thus denying my warranty. I did a good job not laughing in the dealer's face and bought my sled elsewhere.
I use nothing but the best Supertech
brand of oil in my Poo or whatever the dollar store is selling....like it really matters, the Pro 800 engine is toast after 1200-1500 miles anyway. Probably could use used diesel motor oil and would last just as long (short).
** I actually use Mystic JT4 and premix with 8 ounces of degummed castor oil into the fuel tank of my Poo.....love the smell of castor and so far haven't had issues with it separating in the fuel tank. I'm doing a personal test so see if a hint of castor will extend my engine's life. At the rate I'm riding, I'll let you know in 10 years if it worked.

To further loud handles point the magnusen moss act places the burden of proof on Polaris or whatever warranty agency so they would need to find and prove the oil you were using was inferior...which would not be the case with any major brand.
I myself use the Polaris stuff. It's easy to get and I buy in bulk.
When that happens give me a call!!
