    Thumbs down GTX Limited 30hrs.. Supercharger issue.

    I just wanted to add myself to the list of people with supercharger problems. To bad this forum wasn't on display at the dealership.

    Close enough to $20000 after everything. Now I'm afraid to go out alone anymore.

    Way to go Bombardier!

    Ohh no, that is so unfortunate. It's hard to believe this has happened to yet another person on this forum and their first post is about a ceramic washer failure. I hope you get the ski back up and running-> with metal god damn washers!!!

    Well.. I actually thought I could enjoy myself on it. I have the warranty so I'll just keep enjoying myself until thats over. Hopefully by then a real fix will present itself. At least I know where to look.

    I guess you are talking about metal washers or something.. would that void my warranty? Do you know how often they will fix it under warranty?

    There is no real way to tell the difference betwwen them by looking at them. 99 out of 100 dealer techs would ever notice. The one would accidently put the washer near a magnet and wonder why it stuck. BTW YOUR MOTOR WILL EVENTUALLY BLOW UP.

    Not exactly sure yet, but the symptoms all point to the usual supercharger problem. WOT rpm are at 6000 and top speed 58-60mph. Noticed it on the way in from an extremely enjoyable experience.
    One good thing is that it is still under warranty. I would be beyond irate if I had to pay for whatever the problem is. I am already missing out by not being able to ride it while they fix it.

    Well I figure after the warranty is up, maybe do the "fix" and get myself a new one. Leave the out of warranty one for someone less demanding.
