I have a wolvy and ride in water up to the seats without problem. When I am done I pull the drain plug and no water comes out. I am not sure what your problem is but it may be something to see the dealer you bought it from before your warranty is up.

defenetly check your drain plug and the cover for the cvt. after that check your tranny snorkels because I can go up to the seat without any problems as well.

today, i put my wolverine to the test i had it in mud put to the seat, after working it through i pulled the plug and nothing came out i checked everything and it looks good, but yet after the mud i went through some creeks not deep at all after that it had water in the case so i think my problem is water is splashing up and down the vent tube
