last night i went and got my moms p360 back from shop from having the 2wd/4wd acutuator repleased and now it is making a high pich squail and olny does this in high and low gear but not in revarse or nutral what is going on? is this normal? help

 

I have replaced 3 of those damn actulators from 2wd/4wd [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] but have never had a noise from them.. Are you sure it is not coming from your belt housing?? does it wine all the time or just at low speeds?

 

how much did it cost u to have them replased it seems to be doing it at low speeds i really cant tell where they are coming from

 

Part itself is I belive $260 from the dealer, but you can get then from Ronayers.com for low $200.. The primary clutch face plate has a bearing in it, when it wears out it will make a wining sound until you hit around 6mph or higher & the engine brake release, does it go away after you reach this aprox speed?

 

hey how fare apart was it that u had to replace the actuator them and what causes them to go. and is it save to ride with the bearing gone

 

Im about fed up with my 360. When it had 100 hours on it the actuator went bad then when it got about 270 the primary and secondary clutches messed up (815 dollars) then about 275 hours the dealer did not put them in right so they both messed up again(the dealer paid this time) not the actuator is messed up agian.

 

I replaced the 1st one in Aug. 03, then the last one April 04.. Both times water had entered the actulator motor housing & destroyed it (only takes a few drops of water) however it never made any noise, it just didn't do anything..

These actulators are worriesome to me because of all the problems I have had with them (although not one problem with the belt actulator) This last time I sealed it up with silicone, hope this prevents any further problem.. Most prarie owners have no problem what so ever with these parts, but if you do there very agrivating & expensive..

Best thing to do if your clutch plate bearing has gone bad is to replace it, ronayers has if for I think $42, I determined mine was bad by 1st taking the CVT cover off, & on the primary clutch you'll see a plate with I think 8 bolts securing it on.. In the center of the plate you'll see a bearing, turn it by hand. If there is resistance to it or does not glide smooth as silk there is a good posibilty it needs to be replaced. Mine moved just fine but I could feel kinks in it.

 

Hi there..that is my onlyonly bitch about my 650 is that stinking *** whine the tranny makes..im used to it now but it still bothers the crap outa me...nothing ive done has changed it...although i donot think its related to the orignal post here i just had to let ya know that it screams like a woman..[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

hey have u tryed to tighten up the belt my p360 had the smae thing does that happen when u punch the throtal

 

You know I have about 22,000km on my Prairies and only replaced the actulators two times? and the engine brake engine motor once. The high pich squeal is your belt is too loose.
