On my 300 on the right side of the engine you have the oil filter housing with the three nuts to loosen to get to it. Just above it and back a little bit there are three more nuts in a triangular shape just like the oil filter housing. I'm guessing that this is the oil pump. Well on this set of nuts one of the nuts worked itself out and the bolt has become stuck in the engine. I would think that the warranty covers this being that this atv is only 2 months old. This could have caused some major damage if I didn't catch it in time. Has anyone else here experienced anything like this before? Do you think that ac will fix it? I'm really bummed out about this happening, everything was going so great!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

The bolt shouldn't move since (I'm thinking out loud) it’s a stud, only the nuts should be removable. Take the 300 back to the dealer and ask them to check things out. Being only months old there shouldn't be any problems.
