Renegade Rebuild and Review 2007 model

[magnet]

I was thinking about buying a renegade, but after reading this post... I'm not sure!

if you saw thw way this unit get s rode you would buy a renagade. lol
Ron should probably one of those guys that tests a unit then puts out a review on its overall performance. I am sure that anybody that purchased a machine with a thumbs up review that they would get years of trouble free use out of their machine.:d

I'm sure it has been ridden hard, but I have heard of the frame braking on these before as well. Surprized can-am didn't beef up the frame on the newer ones... or maybe they did?

Also I changed all the fluids, firstly the engine, I let it run for a few minutes and then drained the oil. I jacked it on its side a bit to assist on getting the dirte oil all out of the engine and when taking off the filter oil just runs down the engine and I was able to put a rag beneath to catch all the oil. With the Transmission, when taking out the bottom plug the oil was milky a bit, so I drained it. Then put the cap on. Filled it with some regular cheap oil. pushed the quad forward and back, then drained that too. Then I put the recommended oil in, Skidoo XPS chain case oil, 1 1/2 bottles. And in the engine I ran Amsoil Formula 4-Stroke 0-W 40 Synthetic Motor Oil. Just over 2 - 3/8 Litres
To put the oil in the transmission I just rigged up a funnel and hose rather than waiting and did something else, that seemed to work well.

once you've changed all the fliuds once on the renegade, it takes me under a hr no problem to change the rear/front diff,engine,tranny oils.

its good to put syn in the tranny... it likes that a lot and shifts with ease
