I know there has been a lot of discussion on when to replace the oil filter and most seem to replace yearly or every other year, but how long is too long to use the same filter? has anyone continued to use the same filter for years do to low mileage? I am probably coming up on 5 years on my...

Any issue starting 2012 apex xtx immediately after replacing the battery without putting the air box, headlight, dash, etc back together? I am thinking I can just plug the ignition switch back in and start it, is there anything else I should plug in as to not do any damage?

2012 apex xtx, I was going to replace my track this year as I think it has almost 8000 miles on it, I am assuming it is the original track. I think from the factory these came with a Camoplast Ripsaw? Can anyone tell if it is indeed a Ripsaw track and more importantly does it need to be...

This is on my buddy's 2011 Vector that left him stranded yesterday but posting here as the Vector forum doesn't look that active and I assume the starter is pretty much the same on both sleds. We need to get it fixed for big ride next weekend :-). Anyway the starter solenoid just...

Sorry for the stupid question. I took everything apart this spring and now am trying to get it back together and for the life of me I can't figure out where these go (I assume exhaust somewhere)? Thanks in advance.

I have read that the 2012 XTX skid is an easy install and it was going well until I started lining up the rear bolts. The skid seems to be about an inch or so too far back and not sure how to get the bolt holes lined up. The front Bolts where a piece of cake (usually the hard ones :-)... I...

I broke one of the EXUP cables during the adjustment procedure and have a couple of questions. The adjustment seems to make sense but since I am putting on new cables how tight should the tension on the cables be? Or is it just a guess :-)? The other question has to do with the servo...

2012 APEX XTX. I bought this sled in March of last year so I have only put about 300 miles on it. I bought Dupont slides and was about to put them on when I noticed the old ones are already Dupont and are really only wearing in one spot right where the rear (small) idler wheels are. They...

Anyone know the procedure to replace coolant on 2012 APEX XTX? Looking for drain plug, bleeders and best practices to bleed it. Thanks.

What are you guys doing to lube the steering on the APEX (or any sled actually)? I am specifically talking about the ball socket joints. Should this be lubed and if so with what? Thanks.

I have looked at most of the threads for replacing the clutch side jack-shaft bearing but most of them seem to be about pre-2011 APEX'S (including the FAQ). I have read that the 2011 and newer are easier to replace but am still confused if I have to pull the jack-shaft out? Any other tips...

I bought this sled this spring, the dealer said it had 6500 miles on it but after I got it home the odometer only showed a little over 900 miles (after I put a few hundred miles on it). So now I am wondering if the odometer got messed up some how or I got a better deal then I thought (and no...

Hi, I will be doing a compression test on my 2012 XTX and was wondering is there anything special I need to do so I don't do any damage like pull fuse for fuel injectors or anything else? Since it is coil over plug I assume there is nothing to do on the electrical? Thanks in advance. Brian

Can someone help me with the following questions? I live in Texas now (not many snowmobile dealers to get information from :-) and haven't owned a sled since my 1972 sl338's. Looking to buy one soon but have a few questions. What year did the following change? 1. Hood no longer opens...
