I had the primary and secondary Clutch replaced and it worked great but yesterday it started again. It's sticking in reverse and/or forward after running it for a lenth of time. It will shift if turned off or it's cool. Once the transmission becomes warm it stops working correctly. Has anyone else faced this problem after the clutch has been replaced.

Same issues, feel your pain on this frustration! Dealer still is not totally on board with my issues. Hopefully this week it will be addressed.

It's a great machine but it has some new model kinks that need to be addressed to make it awesome.

Sorry for your issues and hope they can be resolved quickly.

My dealer said I was the first returning comlpaint. He wants me to spray all the linkage cables. I looked and they appear to be incased in plastic so I sprayed the ends hope it helps!!!

Just to let everyone know my 550 S4 is shifting very smoothly with new longer transmission belt change. Adjusting the linkage fixed the 4WD problem. I'm once again a happy Gatorer :o) You know JD makes a good product but the 550 was a new less expensive way of enjoying off roading. It does have some bugs but JD and Gulf Tactor have bent over backwards to fix them. Anyway in my case they have.
