It's a well-known issue... have your dealer contact BRP. Perhaps an accommodation can be made.
Good luck! :thumbup:

Some 2010 and 2011's were shipped with throttle body firmware that was overactive and caused problems. There was a recall and most throttle bodies were replaced. Check with the dealer to make certain your throttle body was one of those affected.

They did not have a recall on the Throttle Body. It was a service bulletin.

My 2011 RT-S throttle body failed and was replaced free by the dealer. As said, have the dealer call BRP and see if it can be replaced at no charge to you. After replacement, my 2011 ran like a hose. Dealer should go to bat for you!!

If you read the bulletin I posted, it tells the dealer to file a case for a "good will" warranty replacement.

Hopefully your dealer will do that!

Yep... my error. The dealer called it a recall but it was not.... just an upgrade to a better model.

Whatever they called it; it did fix the problem! :thumbup:
