2015 XP1000-4 trans/transfer case lube service

I am servicing the transmission/transfer case and the owners manual says that it takes a total of 44oz of AGL fluid. I drained about 2 quarts from the lower drain plug and when I went to fill it the at the rear fill plug the unit only took the same amount that was drained out.
The owners manual says that the capacity is 44oz. Is there something that I am missing such as a second drain plug? I have been reading that the transmission and transfer case are the same unit and the whole assembly does not appear that big to hold 44oz. Could this be a typo in the 2015 owners manual?

Belt Issue HELP!!!

Ok guys have a 2012 RZR4 RGE 800, has 3 inch lift 29.5 Terminators on it. A couple weeks ago we spun a EPI severe duty belt while pulling a bunch of 4 wheelers out of some gumbo mud. Belt came apart, blew it into a million pieces, etc. So we went back to camp, put on a spare belt, drove it 500 yards and it came apart. So we took it back apart and found some pieces had gotten into the snorkels and came back into the clutch when we took off and messed that belt up. We put on a 3rd belt and were able to ride about 30 minutes before the front (toward front of vehicle) was separating so we loaded up and came home. I got home got it all apart, and found a nick on the edge on the secondary where it is recessed. I took a file and some emery cloth and smoothed it out. I pulled both clutches, serviced and cleaned the faces, installed a TAGTEAM clutch kit and new EPI severe duty belt. Last week I finally had time to get it out cause I wanted to see the difference in clutches. I rode slowly in low heating up the belt etc. Once I shifted it into high I started hearing a bunch of racket so I took it back home and pulled the cover only to find the front edge of the belt shredded again!!! I replaced the secondary with a new one and it did it again with another belt!! I pulled the primary and the plastic bushing on the bolt is all messed up. What else can it be?? What am I Missing?? ITs only the front side of the belt and its busting off the top cogs and leaving a groove

No power on my rzr 800s 2011

Hey guys!!! I am new to this forum and I am hoping you all can help me with my RZR. I have a 2008 RZR S and it will crank and idle good but it has no power when I give it the throttle. It is almost like something in the engine is dragging. I did notice that my exhaust pipe is sooted up with black soot. and my plugs are black. Could that mean I need a top end rebuild?? or should I check somewhere else first? PLEASE HELP!!

Need Help 2013 RZR Running Lean

I recently rebuilt my rzr. All stock no big bore kit etc. When you put it in gear it sputters a little and then clears out. While it sits and idles its like it starving for fuel. You can spray starting fluid in the snorkel and it clears right up and runs great. I’ve had people tell me I have a air leak somewhere and tell me to buy a programmer. Looking to see if anybody has had this issue. RZR is a 2013 with 2,000 miles only had to rebuild the motor. Any help is appreciated.
