P700 Tranny Trouble

[Shane]

i have a Pioneer 700 and the tranny takes forever to get warmed up to where it does not slip when it is cold. It has done it since it was new. Getting worse need any advice or has anyone else experienced this? I'm running valvoline atv oil and I change regularly. Thanks Shane

I run full synthetic amsoil and have zero problems in the cold. -10 here today. Also make sure you have enough oil in it. I use 4 full qts when I change it. But proper warm up time 15 20 min. Is helpful

My Rincon 680 did the same, (same motor & tranny design as P700 essentially) and I started using Rotella T6 full synthetic 5w-40 and it seemed to work a lot better, still had to warm it up some but not nearly as long as before.

Please let it warm up before hitting the gas pedal! That slipping is not good. I always let it warm up, even in the summer for at 15 secs and then it would pull away with out slipping.

Thanks my pioneer has full cab. It has so much cab noise. How is noise on your 1000

I came from a P700 with a louder than OEM exhaust so I would say that it is a lot quieter vs the 700.

It is quieter then my foreman 450s. I don't have the cab though. Just a roof and windshield.
