WHAT OIL ARE YOU USING IN YOUR PRO

[lion hunter]

So is everyone sticking to the recomended oil for the pro, VES GOLD I think or would using some other quality not be recomended. I've always used Redline in my Cat's or Amsoil. I would like to keep using my old reliable instead of getting bent over by Polaris on the Gold. What do you think!!


Thanks, Jeff

i use redline or the cheapest non-synthetic i can find. haven't used polaris oil in a number of years. the original ves was complete garbage, not sure how much better the gold is.

One advantage to using factory oils would be warranty issues. Your dealer can't use oil quality as an excuse to wiggle out of a warranty repair

I use Klotz, it is warranty certified for Polaris.

Amsoil here. Cheaper. At least as good. Had it in the last Five sleds, Yammi, Doo, Poo, Poo, Poo.
Do a little research, your stealer can't dictate what oil you use, he can only use that if he can PROVE the oil caused the failure. Wish him good luck with that.

I've heard good things about redline oil. But, if your motor goes down and Polaris finds out that you weren't using Polaris oil will that void your warranty?

I sucked out the VES it came with and run Klotz

I'm going to run Shell Advance Synthetic. I was able to keep a 900 RMK running trouble free with Shell. It should work in the Pro.

No.

Redline sythetic runs clean I heard..
Coming from a guy who has torn down lots of motors

Most shops I spoke with said Redline great, but too much $$ so stick with VES Gold...

I plan on running amsoil interceptor, been running it for about 5 years on my 900 and my d7 with no issues.

 

[Dootimes2]

I can get amsoil interceptor for $27 a gallon vers the VES Gold at $40+ per gallon. Been using the amsoil for 4 years with zero problems and it burns very clean. May not be everyones choice but it is mine.

X2

No warranty issues, cleaner exhaust valves, and as it burns it gives off a cool scent similar to race gas. So it's a bonus for your buddies on the cats in back!!!

Redline snowmobile oil is cheaper than ves gold. I myself use redline and have had zero issues. Carls cycle and slp both recommend redline, I will continue to use it until I find a good reason not to.

Amsoil Dominator

My service manager told me he would be okay with Amsoil Dominator. In terms of valve cleanliness, it has worked the best for us on the Edge-era sleds.

Redline is what I have run for years. Zero problems and you can get it via the web for $35 a gallon or so with shipping if you buy the 4 gallon case. My dealer uses it and recommends it for his mod sleds. That is good enough for me.

Can you hook us up with a link to the $35 redline?

 

[m8sandman]

i've run everything from klotz to yamalube and never had a failure, as long as its got the little certification emblem don't think you can go wrong. me and several in my area have been running mystik since we found it last year. i can pick it up at my discount for about $25 a gallon and is full synthetic...

I just run the VES gold. It works, and the dealer is just down the road. It says VES gold on the side of the oil tank....how wrong can you really go.
