P500 Meltdown.....

[Duckiller]

Quick question. I have a little over 200 miles now but when the p500 gets hot it smells like burning plastic from the rear? Not sure if I noticed it before the new wheels and tires or not but nothing rubs so I dont think that has anything to do to it. I did deactivate the reverse lever but I cant see that doing anything.

Does anyone else have the same thing?

Yep. 600 miles and mine still has the new car smell. In the rear. As you described. Not really plastic. But more of a hot smell.

It's probably coming from the muffler. Every New machine or New exhaust has that smell. As long as there's no smoke I think you're ok

If the smell goes away, you can bring it back by touching a plastic shopping bag to the muffler immediately after turning the machine off. Works great to bring back that new utv/burning plastic smell for a while....
