    Either you have a valve hanging open or your ECU is failing.

    No codes being displayed?

    Default Welcome. ..to the 🎪

    Wow...many things to check if as you say it is a 2012 with 2,600k's. You did the plugs but you also need to check the wires and ghe coils. Then fuel filter, air cleaner and vaccum hoses. Bad gas or dirty injectors. If you have not done so get some fresh gas and add injector cleaner. Also check for codes that can help get closer to the problem...

    WOW. That's a pretty specific diagnosis.......based only on a guess.

    This could be caused by a LOT of things.

    And like all troubleshooting, you should check the easy, simple and cheap possible causes first.
    Like a loose battery cable for instance.
    Then the suggested fresh gas, along with some fuel system cleaner maybe.

    Personally I'm not mechanically inclined. I guess if you trust your dealer you go ahead and get the required repair done.
    If you don't trust the dealer then it's a matter of getting a second opinion.
    There seem to be a lot of Can Am dealers close to Montreal.

    I'm fortunate to have a dealer close to home that I trust.

    Let us know how you make out.

    regards
