1st 16 turbo / Engine Failure


Would be VERY helpful to have a pic of the broken part, especially a close up of where the break is.
 
I'm new to this forum.. I have a Viper LTX LE 2016 MPI turbo and yesterday after 93 km 4.5 turbo boost, the push rod blew a hole in the engine. I did my purchase at the spring booking
Did you have the bad boost controller ?
 
ok Yamaha rep did lot of test today anit not the boost that broke the engine
new engine comming next week all on warranty boost level went to 4.6

Glad to hear their doing the right thing for you!

Wonder if it will be a NEW engine, or a new OLD engine. I know which one I would want.
 
I never had any doubt about Yamaha standing behind it. Hopefully you will be up and running before we get snow. Lol
 
X2 This is why I ride Yamaha. Glad things havent changed.
Crank is in oil thats why its on warranty! Broken engine under 60 miles!

WOOOOOOW. thank you YAMAHA to pass it under warranty..........................

I do my homework and that is why I ride a Yamaha. They do stand behind there product more than any other sled company. Believe me. Cripes it even starts before work is done with deductible at all the other companies. I am not tinted there are reasons I stick with Yamaha and it has been tough to sometimes. Warranty,After warranty care,4 stroke and TY!
 
I know cannondale you did your homework 1000 X more than YAMAHA thats the problem.........

NO offense !
