Is there any suggestions on here to help us with our rt spyder. We have a brake problem . The screen keeps coming up with brake failure. We take it in to the dealer and they say it is fixed and within 2 or 300 km it is doing it again as well as brake pedal fade. We also have a squealing brake on rear wheel while driving. The dealer said it was the emergency cable was too tight but we have it in twice for this and it is doing it again. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated . We are so sick of taking this in to dealer for these problems....

Sounds like its time to ditch this dealer and find another one. A lot of inexperienced dealers out there trying to make a quick buck. Check for fluid leaks, fluid level, and may need a bleed job. Check for rubbing and proper adjustment of PB. RT pads should be gen III so it shouldn't squeek.

Hi

We just picked up our new 2010 RT S SE5 . We bought it at TEAM VINCENT MOTORSPORTS located in AYR .We are really happy with them so far. The DPS was replkaced before we took delivery of it and everything feels better compared to the BRP :spyder: for the test ride event. We were impressed how the technician went over the :spyder:when we picked it up. We asked lots of questions and and he had all the answers and any service recall bulletin I mentioned because I had them all from this site he said that he knew about the bulletin and knew what the fix was and how it was corrected by BRP we went over the :spyder:for an 1.5 hrs . The owner Dave Vincent is a nice guy and takes pride in his dealership as there is always customers there getting something .

We have a :spyder: dealer in Guelph 3 min from where we live but glad we bought from Vincents.
