Did everyone get this email? I have not seen it yet.

Do any of the 3rd party hot air in the cab "solutions" really work well?

The foam kit helps a little but does not eliminate it. I still feel heat on my legs after about 30 min of riding. A little on my back as well. I just keep my AC on medium and the heat disappears....lol!

You might want to call Polaris. After not getting the email, I called them. They said they had no record of me owning the machine. So they requested that I take my bill of sale and photo ID to the dealer... ridiculous, but it is what it is.

Check with Polaris firewall insulation blanket that is now available on 27 models.

Of course the dealer wants you to change the transmission oil and filter, they charge around $700, you can do it yourself for around $300. The extended warranty is ok if you don't drive much, but the members of the club we ride with put on 8-9k miles a year, that extended warranty is worthless. It should be 5 years or 25,000 miles.

I’m at 20K miles and I bought the aftermarket warranty which is 5 years unlimited miles. Ha

The clunk i’d bet my left ….. has something to do with the extension. But Polaris would never tell us that.

Got my letter last week. Already 4,000 miles over so not much help on that front. I did buy the Polaris extended warranty when the machine was new.

I had the dealer change the filter and the transmission fluid on mine about a week ago at around 3200 miles. I talked with one of the guys at the dealership who is very knowledgeable on the XD’s. I don’t know his title, maybe service manager but you set service up with him and he actually gets his hands dirty on the machines. He verified to me information that we have seen on this site, Polaris changed the filter to a more restrictive micron and bought back any old filters they had in stock. He said Polaris recommends changing the filter and fluid at 3000 miles if you use it for severe duty. I don’t think mine falls into that category but I had them go ahead and do it at around a $600 cost. He checked my old fluid and filter and said they saw no signs of shavings or debris. My dealer has been good with the few times I have needed anything from them. They supposedly checked my unit over for the clunk which I believe I don’t have the same issue others have had, fixed a leak around the wiper, and installed one small software update with all other updates already present. I thought that was a small cost to pay to have it verified that the transmission was serviced if any issues come up later. We talked about many of the issues being programming and now with social media only the negatives come out. I like my XD and I use it most everyday. I can’t say why they program some of the things the way they do but I just learn how to use it.
