So this winter, my 2013 1000 limited with 1200 miles locked up the rear tires while riding. I gassed it and smoked the belt. I thought that it was just a belt, so I replaced the belt and it happened again. Before it happened the second time (after about 1/4 mile) there was a clunk, clunk, clunk noise. This time I didn't smoke the belt. With all the issues reported with the rear diff, I assumed it was the diff and pulled the diff. The diff is fine and turn over smoothly. I assume it is the transmission, but there are no transmission error messages. Any thoughts? Has anybody else went through the same? Any ideas where I can get a reasonable (stealer wants $2300) replacement or anybody that rebuilds them? Thanks!

Did you replace the belt immediately, on the spot, where the first one broke? Were you riding amoungst various sized rocks/shale/etc?

I had the same issue but I have a brand new transmission put in. Ran great when we first fired it up but now lower speeds it acts like it locks up. Flushed transmission about 7 times. Got lots of metal shavings come out the trans? Anyone got a suggestion about what to do or check? This a 2009 canam commander with 900 miles on the motor and less than 30 on the transmission.
