Rusted Toyota 10 Posted May 17, 2022 Found this on Faceplant; claims trans slips at times after oil change. Could it be the wrong oil? Worth the gamble? I would purchase it for resale as I’m sticking with ATVs. $7500 with 340 mi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toodeep 1,760 Posted May 17, 2022 Those tires have a lot of wear on them for 340 miles. Mileage also doesn't match with oil change intervals. If it was sunk or anything like that the $$$ can rack up pretty fast. If he just didn't put enough oil in it, it would be a cheap fix. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rusted Toyota 10 Posted May 17, 2022 The seller flips a lot of nice ATVs on FB. I would think he should know about correct oil and checking the level- that’s what concerns me. If it was a quick fix he would have done it. Sure don’t want a money pit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
toodeep 1,760 Posted May 18, 2022 Usually when the transmission slips on those it because the oil pump pick up screen is plugged (complete disassembly of the motor) but I have never seen it with that low of mileage. I also never see them with that low of mileage unless it's for the very first oil change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rusted Toyota 10 Posted May 18, 2022 Thanks too deep, think I’m going to leave it alone. I’ve got both of my ATVs running good and I’ll use the time to enjoy them rather than take on another project. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
