Rattle noise

Usually a good greasing of the yoke will fix the issue, there is a hole in the skid plate to get to the grease zerk.

It’s absolutely the driveshaft - I installed an aftermarket one and don’t have the rattle now. Open your center console and pop out the inner console box. Have someone drive you at 5500 rpm you can hear the rattle come directly from the carrier bearing area.

It,s the drive shaft, if you grease it will go away for a short time, there is a grease zero by the carrier bearing.

I have a rattle noise around 5500 rpm. Goes away after 6000. Sounds like heat/exhaust shield. Can’t find anything loose. Any one else having issues. XP 2 seater. Thanks

I had the same rattle, the dealer ship greased it and I rode for a few hundred miles, and the noise is back. I will take it in shortly and see what they are going to do this time. He told me another guy had this issue and they replaced the prop shaft on his through polaris warranty. Hoping they will do the same for me.

I’m aware of the grease zerk. Mine got to the point that grease did nothing for the rattle. My machine also gets used daily so greasing before every ride wasn’t practical.
