Has anyone had this issue with their sled? My friends Turbo Cat looks to maybe have water in the chain case. See Pic. It only has 2 rides totaling 150 miles on it since the oil was changed.
He sent the pic to his dealer and they are telling him it looks like condensation. I don't see how condensation could cause that much of a milky look or am I wrong? Another sled in the same enclosed trailer does not look like that. My 2 winders in another enclosed trailer with about 300 miles since their oil change do not look like that either.
Thoughts? Is more water getting in there than condensation or what? The sled is going to the dealer this weekend to have the fluid changed again.
I'll have to keep an eye on that on the Winders now I guess.
