Help a newbie …XP 900 2013 seized engine
What a great site to come to and have communication with other enthusiasts thank you for having me !
I have a 2013 XP 900 are rZRWalker Evans edition. I bought it used from a guy here in Austin Texas which came with an extended service contract from Polaris star
I have only written it 4 or 5 times but a few weekends ago it started sounding louder than usual then it seized up
It’s been at the local dealer for about two weeks now and they told me the Pistons are ruined as well as the gears. They basically told me I would need a whole new engine top and bottom and I’m looking at five to $6000
They said it only had one quart of oil in it and that the inside was dried out
My question is there was no oil light that ever came on and it seem to happen pretty quick I was not riding it very rough that day so I’m curious why Polaris star would not cover. The dealer said they would submit it to Polaris but they were confident that when engine seizes it’s typically do to use or wear and tear
There is only 70 miles on the razor
I’ve read many others with similar issues with far less miles.
If anyone has any recommendations on where to start and challenging Polaris or where to find a good rebuilt engine that would be helpful
I have pictures sent from the dealer if you want to private message me
I look forward to getting to know some of you and thank you in advance for any guidence!!!

French newbie
In first excuse-me for my bad english.
I’m 46 years old and I live in south of France.
I’ve discovered SSV recently by a friend who makes me try an RZR 570. It was my first experience on off-road with 4 wheels (few years ago I was doing it on motorcycle) and I was conquest by the driving sensation.
So, two weeks ago I’ve bought a brand new RZR900S 2016.
My first ride make it completly mud cover, it was a difficult moment to me :yikes: 3 hours to ride and 3 hours to clean it :doh:
There’s also a lot of path on the mountains all around my house with stones so I’ve bought few equipments to protect my RZR: front bumper, steel rock slider, hmw skide plate, front and rear a-arms guard, rear cab frame extensions, lower door and half windshield.
I come here to find informations and advises…..and to improving my english 😀
With pleasure to read you.

I’m in Fallon, NV. If anyone is taking a trip to sand mountain I’d love to tag along (If I’m not in Tahoe skiing, after the last few winters I don’t take any good days for granted). Also spending time in Wilson Canyon. Always up to explore BLM land as well. Here’s some photos of my first weekend.
Hello Everyone!
Finally gave in a couple weeks ago and bought myself a RZR 🙂 and I must say I am disappointed that I waited this long to get one haha I love the thing. Its so much fun! Interested in meeting new people and getting lots on new information on these things!
Cheers,
Just bought an RZR
Just bought a 2015 XP 4 1k, tips to prevent breaking often?
Finally gave in ;)
long time browser of the forums. Lots of reading and learning, I’ve had lots of canam atvs and a few others Yamaha, Kawasaki, Honda and a rhino, commander and wildcat trail as far as sxs go. One thing I really like so far about the RZR is the amount of info and forum participation and also plethora of aftermarket options for accessories as opposed to only oem stuff.
Just picked up my first RZR.
16 RZR 1ks in black . Very nice rig so far.
Waiting on my saw grip and warn provantage to arrive to start down the long road of aftermarket goodies lmao!!!
Thanks
