Here's this video in which I bought this unit, if you're looking for a follow video! ua-cam.com/video/mOx90hoWA7k/v-deo.htmlsi=DtSjKXFpk8rqr7Kf
Today, your my church,thank you
55:16 My only problem is we still Dont know what went wrong !
Though the same. @@ventusprime
I think it was flooded and i would bet there is crosion in the PCM
There is no shame in admitting you don't know how to fix certain things. I can paint but I cannot do brain surgery.
I am a small engine and motorcycle mechanic. Honda, Suzuki, Yamaha, all have a policy on working on product. They replace they do not repair! The corporate structure is all about modular concept. They build them as units there for no repair of components is needed. Techs are taught to find the issue then replace the component! Time is money with these dealerships! JOHN DEERE IS NOTORIOUS FOR THIS!
It's ridiculous that new side by sides cost as much as new a car... which are also priced ridiculously.
As long as people buy them, the price will continue to go up until they stop buying. It's gotta be getting close to that point.
And with the accompanying crappy build quality
It’s all designed to keep people in debt.. simple
Try a used four-wheel-drive pick up! Something with 60,000 on it 23 or four years old
Side by sides are built for comfort not work like old school side by side a sensor nightmare
That milky transmission fluid is your flashing neon sign that says "Hello Matt, I have been under water!" Saskatchewan Govt. Insurance will automatically total off any vehicle that has been submerged because of potential electrical gremlins!
First though after plugs looked, good call.
I think your right gordbolt
Was thinkng th vent tube filled with water.
When Matt was describing the dirt in the connectors and then the milky trans oil my first thought was that this buggy had spent some time in a stream or pond!
To put these things in water is really not too far out of the norm., I don’t think they are totaling a Utv for water, especially a Honda, if that is the case, there are going to be some great deals on these things, I know for sure guys are running the can ams slap up to the top of the doors in water and not think twice about it..
As someone who works at a Honda dealership these are a pain to work on and diagnose sometimes you need specific tools and computers to work on them to figure out the electrical issues and this model also had ecu and shift motor/solenoid problems and I’ve seen probably 20-25 get changed in my 3 years there
It is crazy that I recently had better quality from Chinese than German and Japanese products (except Toyota). Really surprising and sad in some ways.
@@9a2er the dealership I work at also has sold cfmoto for a while and they have gotten a lot better but they still are not the quality of a Yamaha or Honda in my opinion
The immediate usability and convenience of fuel injection has taken over by storm the last ten years, but the longevity is a nightmare. Especially with having no industry standardization whatsoever
As someone who ran a Honda daily for work I can confirm you dont need oil in a honda
@@9a2erI’d still take a Honda even if they’re less reliable. I’d much rather have an American made side by side than a Chinese made side by side. China is an awful country that I have no interest in financially supporting.
And just to clarify, Honda side by sides aren’t Japanese. They are manufactured in Timmonsville, South Carolina.
Check out the shifter linkage.😮 16:42
Wow! Matt that was an impressive YT Easter Egg! Your wife will be very proud of your progress, I know I sure am! I just love your story telling and editing skills. You always entertain and connect all the dots (even if it takes two or three years). Once the house build is complete,maybe we will see that over head crane get installed!
... and the outside boiler for the heated floors
Loved the Easter egg, it looks great! ❤ You deserve it.
Also, Amazon seems to have a nice selection of windshields both for the front and rear.
"Ruthless" brand windshield is out of STOCK but looked very nice though.
I totally agree! Sure BEATS the church project!
@@kenc1800 the church was just a rental, this is home
Good job Matt, I think it was wisdom you sent it to a dealer. You checked to see the main stuff was OK, making the unit worth repairing. Shoot, you even put the first mechanic back on the track cuz he was thinking wrong.
Looks like you enjoy that side by side alot. You get a thumbs up from me.
I bought, repaired and sold 11 of the Polaris side by sides from those auctions. The inspectors either don't care or don't know what they are looking at. Big benefit for me. Don't be afraid to buy them, nice return on investment.
20:26 - 20:36 This was one of the plus sides of these videos a few years when I say you and binged through almost all of your old content till I caught up. I laughed but enjoyed when you sometimes skipped years in a single video and appreciated you giving updates when you had enough content.
Its definitely that CV shaft in the rear end making that racket. Once the grease starts leaking out they will make that noise. Its also quite obvious because its louder with the diff locked vs open. If it was a diff problem the noise would likely go away when it was locked.
Yup! That clicking sounded exactly like every CV joint i ever heard going bad. A diff/locker going bad would be more of a whining and/or grinding noise if im not mistaken.
1.04.28 . The house is coming on amazing.
I have had too much coffee.... I think I see 6 or 7 Cub Cadets in the background, cool. I was surprised you started up a vibrating machine with things laying loose in the front by the battery, a can, another battery, etc. 7 yrs ago I got lucky 3 times buying 6x6 military trucks from online auction. I am surprised you did not pressure wash the whole machine before working on it, makes it much more pleasant to work on. Thanks for sharing, really like your vids.
6 or 7? That's just the first row.
Matt got his start collecting Cub Cadets. There's a couple older videos where he does a bit of work on them, they also got caught in a flood a few years back.
I think he’s stated before that he has more in storage off site
I was quite surprised seeing the house in the background just for a brief second, it's really come a long way!!!
I had to rewind the video just to verify that I wasn’t seeing things. I hope there is a video in the future of the house framing. Keep up the great work. I thoroughly enjoy your postings.
House is looking good, can't wait for that video to drop.
Gotta be careful zipping around like that. We just had a local guy die not too long ago driving around in a UTV like that, he lost control and rolled it. Stay safe.
The 2 rear drain plugs are for the engine oil, the main transmission is in the engine, the front one that was milky is the subtransmission, luckily all the clutches are in the engine not the subtransmission
Wow! The house went up fast! I had to look at the date this video was posted when I first started watching it as things have changed so much - thought maybe Matt found a long lost video. I had forgotten about the SxS - we had seen it in a few videos in the shop in the past, but it just vanished. Thanks for closing out the project.
Just sat down to eat some lunch and a new diesel creek popped up! Yay!!!
Side by sides have a decent amount of electronics in a vehicle that is exposed to the elements. They are just rife for wiring/electronic failures. I would also inspect the wires especially were they run along the frame to see if there is any damage from being pinched. If a new wiring harness is available and not overly expensive, I would consider replacing.
"They usually need fuel to stay running." 😂
Well, as opposed to a Detroit with bad rings, for example. :)
Easter egg looks nice coming along further than I thought
Matt test the neutral switch with A digital multimeter. It's electronic powered switch for allowing ⚙️ gear to ⚙️ gear selection position controller switch for what gear to shift itself into by.
32 second old upload. Quickest I've caught one.
9 minutes
A little late but always a good day when Matt posts!
Come on…..Matt has been busy building hid dream home!
The day is now awesome anytime diesel creek posts is very good day
Very cool but I know how a shop can forget about the cust.
And a ride video with eva would be nice be get to see her .
Kudos on the house caught a glimpse in the background looks great 👍
Another day, another awesome project. Can’t wait to see how you troubleshoot and bring this back to life!
The glimpse of the house as you passed by was awesome and looking wonderful
Another great and teachable moment video as always. The best part was the smile on your face while driving your new toy! Also seeing as you stated the easter egg moment (house progress) we saw as driving by. Can't wait to see it when done, I know you'll be keeping inside private but it looks like you'll be making your wife quite happy when it's all done as well as yourself. It's all well-deserved because you work hard. Keep up the great videos and will be watching has been for quite some time now.
The oil pressure light makes me think low oil pressure and a lot of newer stuff has a low oil pressure cutoff that kills the engine so it doesn’t get burned up
I’ve never heard anyone else say that they need help, they are in over their head,, I applaud your honesty 😊
I was within a few miles of you on an environmental crew back in early 2019. It doesn't take long for an environmental crew to get the money out of one of these machines. They use them like a morooka, and sometimes along side morookas. They get very heavy use, with minimal maintenance. The mechanics don't really care to mess with them too much, when they have hoes, skid steers, and dozers at the top of the list.
i completely forgot about this machine. thanks for the upload as always i really enjoy your videos!
If Matt's owned this a year already and we just now seeing the video, only tells me Matt is so far backed up he can NEVER retire or die until we see all the projects!!😊
😂😂
Matt, when u get ur house built and moved into, DONT be late for work and dont get lost on way to shop !! What like.... 30-50 steps ?!😂
No fear will punch in gps coordinates of shop house and go from there. Besides he's got the jeep
A two year long video, cool but nice to get some closure on this one, on to the next! Good to see you making progress on your house too 👍
6:26 In my Motorcyclbatteries i fixed the nuts with hot glue in a way that it does not obstruct the contact.
That's a pretty good idea!
Or try a little bit of fuel line wedged under the nuts.
Sittin in my big comfy chair in the nice cold AC, eatin ribs, drinking a beer, and watching this video. Life couldn’t be any better.
"Captain, there be a house in the background!" Nice! That poor old CJ is sitting there thinking, "Why didn't he spend all that money on me?" Glad to see you got the many issues sorted out.
When you first put it in the shop I thought what's going on here then realised there was no new shop so I knew this video was a drawn out one. When you started looking at fault codes I thought Matts like me this isn't going to be good and sure enough off to the dealer we go. The way Honda work you would never of sorted it on your own even if you knew what you were doing with those electronics. The look on your face was priceless when you found out how good it is. Hopefully you and the wife can some quality time together out playing on it with friends.
Enjoy it. No grief for the time it took or going to the dealer. Just nice to see you enjoying a project so much.
I had a smile on my face the moment you turn ur cap around I could see how much fun you where going to have , ok it took a while but I not care as it anther diesel creek success in my book and I still got a smile from watching cheers Matt
My biggest suggestion for windshields on any sxs is to get a real glass one. Once plexiglass gets scratched up enough, it’s really hard to see, especially when the sun is shining at you. Commonly what will happen is when you’re on the trail, and you get mud on it, then you wipe it off with your sleeve or whatever, that’s basically just rubbing sandpaper on plastic. With glass it won’t scratch almost as all.
Great to see you enjoying it!
How did you ever live without this? what a great toy this is, it makes you look young again.
best part of the video is when you come flying over the hill and hit the brakes..And say "I LIKE THIS THING!!!" i laughed so hard... house looks great Matt.. Love the videos, keeo up the good work!!!
Could’ve been used by an environmental crew looking for diesel fuel leaking into a creek 😂😂
Did I hear a "Weeeeeee" going over the hill? LOL
You sue did!
Nice little side by side. We could see the fun you had! Loved the easteregg!!!!
Damn Matt, little cruz through the woods sure did give me a surprise. Had to back it up and pause it, to take a looks at the house, 8 days ago you released a foundation video. 😂😅 cool bean bud..!
Finally! A DC video to watch with a cold one on a Sunday Afternoon!
I love watching Matt he just like a kid with a new toy.🙂😀😃👍✨
Enjoyed the video and the repair of the Honda. BUT in one of your shots you gave away a quick shot of your new house. It looks great. Look forward to a video on that and maybe a quick tour. 😃😃👍👍
Impressed with your contractor already having your house dried in.
So I own a couple of Hondas a Pioneer and a Talon. A couple of things. The gear selector has a Box right behind the Driver under the bed. lift the bed and you will see it right by the drivers seat. It will have 4 bolts in it. take them out. this is your adjustment point for the selector. You can Google how to set it. Also You want to do a clutch relearn you can google this as well it's not hard.. This will not hurt anything. I do it after every oil change. There is a Transmission and a Sub Transmission. Lift your seat to see dipstick. Everything takes the same oil and there is 3 drain plugs. So make sure you get them Right. The sub-trans takes 1.27 QT of oil and the Engine / Trans takes 6qts of oil when changing the Filters. Make sure to drain both plugs this will be 2 12mm. The sub trans will be a 17mm. 1 last thing. These buggies want full battery charge and good connections!!!
Glad we found out that only environmental crews use staples. Keep growing that knowledge base.
I like Matt’s diagnostic skills - very cool
Matt may I make a suggestion. Since you are an old school type of guy, I suggest you get a chalk blackboard where you write down ALL the projects you need to work on. You can prioritize them anyway you wish. Many of us are anticipating the start and completion of a project, ie; wood burning boiler and would love to see it crossed off the list. Just say’n. Cheers from 🇨🇦
Alot of different smaller cars in Europe had those dual clutches , virtually every one had trouble with them until a later version was fitted . This covered several different makes. I believe they would try and engage both clutches at once.
10:48 greatest commentary in this situation 😂 „They usually need fuel to stay running“
Hi Matt, when you drove over the edge and down in the valley, you can clearly heare the "blacksmith" in the axel joints. Have done some of them on my cars and I am quit sure about the that sound. Great video as usual.
Wow, that unit is screaming fast! It's a nice addition to your place. Great video Matt, thank you for posting 😀
Yes !!! Coffee and your video just came up, Thanks 😊
Glad you found a new toy, Matt.😊 As always, I always enjoy your videos. Good luck with your house! 🎉
I like it, I think it was a good call on going to the dealership, you may have saved yourself some headaches and cash in the long run. Fun utility toy to have around,enjoy it. Thanks for the update, enjoyed watching.
I bought a honda 520 and ride it every day with the dog on 14 acres out back. It's all wooded with trails everywhere. We see deer rabbits bobcats coyotes snakes and lots of other small critters. so far no issues with it at all. Glad yours is working out ok.
Its good to see you got it fixed and even with all the costs so far is still a good deal, going by the price of the new stuff. It's also a little disappointing that the dealer couldn't give it a good clean, especially after having it for so long.
From the quick glimpse we got, it looks like the dream house is coming along nicely !
that new house is looking great
Matt the best thing for a windshield is Lexan, which is expensive as heck. Reg plastic will be cloudy in no time. Make sure when checking the specs on the windshield that it's Lexan or better.😊
Dont forget seatbelt when riding
seen some bad results from people thrown out of sxs's from just a simple seatbelt
Im glad you got running and are enjoying
Stay safe
Yes please Matt, love to see you having some more fun. Keep up the awsome work! Getting an awsome workshop and home it looks like, best wishes from Norway 🇳🇴🤠
Shifter linkage messed up - get the Honda Shop manual and see where's the oil pressure sender. 11:57
Nice buy. I’m sure that Honda will become one of you and the mrs.favorite machines on the farm .
It’s definitely that CV Shaft. Once the boot is ripped or it’s leaking grease it’s toast. It’ll go for a minute, but change it before it locks up on you! OEM or Super ATV CV Shafts.
You can also bring it to the auctions, Matt! Instead of walking, you can ride around the auction yard!
Matt, in any context; if you can stay away from DCT. As the name implies a very complex gearbox with multiple clutches; that need to be finely tuned. A CVT or automatic is infinitely better, easier and longer lasting.
Definitely love a good trail ride video! Also the Easter egg is coming along nicely!!
When you grabbed the camera at 1:04:02 That was smooth Thanks for another great video cheers from Slippery Rock PA !!
Use some light bulb to test if the wires are good. H7 55watt bulb is good. You can have continuity etc on a bad wire/connection.
We all need educational different things. Enjoy watching your videos.
Matt, did you ever check/change the transmission oil again and see if it was milky? You left us hanging.
I thought u wasn't uploading week Matt but glad u did dude Sunday's not so boring now
Just because a wire has continuity or voltage is present doesn’t mean it can carry a load. Corrosion will decrease the amperage but still show battery voltage.
Was nice to catch one right out of the gate! Made my day!
Great machine. SO much fun. Just as much fun working on it as riding it.
I always use Mcqure vinyl spray on the seat and plastic part makes it look new doesn't dry out and sheds water off .keeps soft prevents it from cracking and breaking
Smiles per $, the repair costs seems worth it, lol. Looking forward to the Discovery 2 video... I've seen it in a couple of videos now, and I've got a few of my own and love'em. Cheers, Steve
That intro still makes me close my eyes even though we are miles away lol
Yes family sightseeing drive great !
Seems like machines become unreliable when you add a computer. Thanks.
Harder to diagnose mainly.
Love to see more house build videos Matt , cheers !
bought one "blown up" it was a broken valve spring, now i dont even walk to the mailbox!
Good my afternoon coffee and Sunday lunch! Now that church is over, I can enjoy my day with Diesel Creek and Matt’s problem solving.
I think these types of troubleshooting videos can be extremely interesting.
Replace the transmission fluid. This being low will also cause the oil light to switch on.
Love the sneak peek of the house build. It looks amazing. Love seeing the smile on your face full of joy, happiness and satisfaction of a successful project...
You get the oil light on the dash board and AT means its stuck in automatic shift mode from A faulty neutral safety switch not allowing the clutch plates to release and switch out of gear into neutral gear first.
Yes sir there are a few projects at my place that remain in progress. I am glad to see you worked through your side by side and that includes working with the dealership, it is encouraging and brings me solace.
Yep with winter coming I suspect next spring I will be presented with a few things that will not leave me time to hang out at the bar and this is just fine.
All the best.
P.S. I see a rather nice house taking shape in the background. Again best wishes.
I love the excitement and then what the heck happened moments.
