Hi all

I pick up my new 500 X2 Deluxe blue 2007 last saturday.. When I back home I check all my fluid, filter, change my front diff fluid...for Lt drive fluid...( just in case ).I do the priming oil pump with success.

The only thing I notice was the noise at idle.....Is that the oil pump make this noise...came from near the oil tank, after awhile running....I notice the noise disapear.....

I have the exact same ATV. When I got it, I thought the engine was rather noisy, particularly in comparison to, say, a Honda. I've gotten used to it and think it's just the nature of the beast. If you're really concerned, take it back to the dealer and ask him, but I suspect you'll find they all sound about the same.

did u change the engine oil? Did you purge the whole oil system? is the noise a gurgeling sound from the oil tank? I changed my oil and purged the whole oil system and I got the same noise. If thats what you did then you have air in the oil system. Prime the system a few more times and it should go away. It took me for ever to get all the air out. Also when its really cold mine makes a gurgle until the oil is warm then it goes away. I think becuase the oil is thick from the cold but I am NO expert. Is your oil filter getting hot? Is the oil tank getting hot? if those 2 are hot then your ok I would say
I wont ever purge the whole oil system again - too much of a pain in the *** - im just going to change it more often
