Hi,
This weekend went on a trip with my all brand new cforce 1000 touring, went from tarmac to reach the small muddy places and dirt and even sand.
Was running great until tre situations occurred:
First, after putting 50km without problems and still respecting the break in on the engine, we came across a sand small uphill and just turned the 4x4, and almost reaching the top, got a strange loss of traction with a noise like something was slipping, the noise looked to came from the front but cannot give 100% sure it was the differential or not, but something was definitely slipping, also i disconnected the 4x4 and tried to make the uphill only rear traction and almost reaching the top the same noise. I got a friend that was on my old 850XC and it drove pass this small uphill almost at idle.....what do you think??? Belt Slipping, Front differential or Gearbox/CVT?
Second, after this situation, i had the engine light going from on to off on the trail back home, but on the trail back home, i had no issues with temp rising nor noises nor anything, we drove normally, but without sand nor uphills, just rolling normally on dirt roads.
Third, a strange situation, riding on normal mode, i was going at 38 to 40km rolling but the engine was revving on 4000rpm at those speeds, i feel that it was a little bit more reavs than usual for that speed, but this is my perception, what do you think on this???
