at 157 miles I took my '05 king quad in for problems with hesitation like the brakes were holding and a loud noise when I gave it gas. the dealer said it was the belt and suzuki replaced it "on a one time only good faith" gesture. 150 miles later guess whats wrong. the dealer says it because of towing too hard. I DONT TOW!! I can not not figure what I am doing wrong and suzuki wont budge that its their problem. anyone else with the same problems??? any ideas?

 

i am a mechanic at a suzuki shop in hawaii and i havent had any problems with the king quads belts so far. i do no that there are a few shops that are putting the wrong oil in the rear axle though. the rear axle fliud is a mobile fluid 44 that converts to chevron torque fluid. some shops have been putting regular hpoid 80/90 oil. make sure you got the right fluid in the axle cause the brake plates are in there as well.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

 

thanks for the info mcguyver101! any way to tell the difference in the fluids other than asking? i. e. thickness/color?
