Anyone having problems with slipping and squalling clutch. 2025 crew having this problem when CVT raises 130 degrees F or higher
 
I have a 2025 Ridge Camo that has that issue. The dealer mechanic said that I may have a problem with the clutch, but he also mentioned that one of the reasons the squealing belt is not engaging is not using low gear when traveling below 20MPH. I followed his advice & I now have less squealing, but am still attempting to get the belt replaced under warranty.
 
I have since talked to my dealership service dude. He feels because I put 33" 10 ply tires on when new, clutch can't take it. I asked him if 4 people and a box full of fire wood ( the Kawasaki ads ) weights less or more than the tires. He's still formulating an answer. I don't like flats from honey locust trees and sharp rocks. I always drive in low in the field and believe high shouldn't be out of the question on secondary roads, blacktops. I'm taking it in for repairs Monday for the clutch, windows falling off tracks, and a recall for oil separator. Might be glad a kept a polaris ranger for backup. This will be third time with clutch thing. Took a week and a half last trip with no fix. They did adjust the doors so they would stay latched on last trip.
