OK let's do a little better with getting along.
Would have been nice if the cardboard shaft would have helped someone. Being brp went through the trouble to make the shaft with cardboard in it. Guess maybe they should have followed GM's lead and put foam in them.

Apologies to all.

Agreed !!

Mine is back at Blackman’s for a third stab at the issue. They’ve been great but I’m fed up with Can Am and their miserable build quality. If there are any issues at all when it comes back to me, it’s gone.

Prepare to cut your loses!!

There will be a few items for sale in the classifieds here if/when. Have my eye on the YXZ sport shift as an option.

What is their proposed solution this round?

 

[Ginger Giraffe]

Replacing everything from back to front. New front shaft, carrier bearing, driveshaft, etc. I have zero faith it will solve the rattle.

 

[alien033]

Neither do I, but at least we will know. I'll be selling mine as well.

This is a old issue. It started with the x3. The solid carrier bearing from sandcraft and satv fix the problem on the x3. And all can am sxs use the same bearing from the factory. The shaft is to long for one rubber mounted carrier to stop the out of balance lope. You can get the shsft balance but it doesn't stop the chatter cause from the loping.

I read all of your posts regarding the carrier bearing so had the dealer install the billet one from sand craft on its first visit to the shop.

 

[alien033]

i should have read them before buying a can-am to begin with haha

 

[acefire]

Any way to get a good recording of the sound?

Sure. I'll post something tomorrow.

Here is a link to a video with the noise we were talking about. Let me know if you can't access it and I'll share another way.

At very beginning I could hear the drives shaft chatter but once you started accelerating that wasn't driveshaft anymore. That in the video I'm not there hearing it in person but that's in the gearbox from what I'm hearing. Could possibly be incorrect tolerance in the secondary clutch. If there's to much Clearance in the back half of the secondary it will wobble and make it sound like everything is coming apart. But that is typically a high mileage wear issue.

It's been doing it since the first mile I put on it, and only occurs between 4200rpm to 5000rm. Smooth as can be after 5000

Alien, I can’t view your video. Any chance you can host it somewhere else?

Prior to my third visit to the dealer, mine sounded like a jack hammer between 3800-4400, confirmed by the service manager who recorded a video of it. I got it back this week and once again the vibration was muted but still there. The driveshaft, front shaft and carrier bearing were all replaced this time.

Decided to take it to AOAA in Shamokin, PA yesterday for some fun - that is why I bought it, after all. Seemed like it started to come back but was hard to tell with a helmet on. Decided to take it for a spin up the driveway today after washing it and sure enough, it’s back. I guarantee it will get worse with every mile I put on it.

Can Am doesn’t seem overly enthusiastic about correcting this issue. I just want out of the machine at this point.

i have a 2022 sport max with 300+ miles and i have noticed this vibration sound between 3600-4600 rpm . it only happens in sport mode 2 wheel it does not happen in sport 4 wheel or in eco 2 or 4 wheel. it seems to be a tinny metal springy sound. is this what you are talking about?
