My 2006 apex rtx is acting up, when I'm driving slow there's a yellow light comes on (!) and there's a engine flashing on my dash, and then the motor wants to stall, or hesitates, as soon as I pick up speed it stops. I'm not sure if it is overheating or not, because the temp outside was -10 C. Any info would be great, thanks.
 
I have a 2007 Apex RTX at about 5800 to 6100 miles had similar issue this season. When the part failed it was the drive axel bearing on the clutch side of the track and speed sensor. I had yellow engine light, but never got the the code flashing until failure of the part that is why may not be getting a code yet. Good luck!
 
axle bearing x3
 
X 4 on axle bearing likely the cause.

Disconnect speedo Sensor wires by the secondary and see if the issue goes away. If it does it is the Axle bearing.
 
thanks guys, I'll check the bearings,but all bearings were changed about 800 miles ago. maybe had one bad bearing, and there is no code showing yet. Will a axle bearing make the engine sputter when driving under 10 mph.
