Longest your spyder has been in the shop?

[Whitetail]

Mines currently going on two weeks, dealer contacted BRP about it because they havent encountered this problem before, running really rich, fouled plugs, hesitating. And its been two weeks since i had it..no loaner spyder either i am also buying the comfort seat from them, but whats the longest youve had your spyder in the shop? I am hoping to get it back soon, although my girlfriend sat on the RT tonight and loved it, maybe in a year or so when there arediscounts on the 14...as much as i joked about the RT model, it just seems the best for everyday, and anytime riding.

Mine spent about half of the 2013 riding season in the shop in several large stints, plus all of the winter, plus its been back a few times this year... though now they don't have me bring it in until they are able to work on it...

So far I've had two new Gear Position Sensors, a new ignition system and a new throttle body....
And they still can't figure out whats wrong

Overnight

Just because I cat wait to get it done. The longest I had to wait was 4 hours, but the dealer gave me a 2014 RTL for a loaner.

About a week waiting for a part(ECM) otherwise 4-5 hrs max.

 

[Chupaca]

Well..!!

2.5 hours..for first service and never been back...do have to say lack of parts is (or shouldn't be) dealer fault but still leaves you without a ryde..

 

[SpyRyd]

9 days.

 

[Hecam17]

A month right after I bought it for a recall, I was told waiting for parts exchange.

 

[Bob Denman]

20 weeks... :shocked:


..for a complete re-build after an "incident" with a Subaru! :gaah:

2011 RT-S SM5 was in the shop for two weeks, for an 18,000 mile service. The Service Shop is great, they were training a new Tech.

2 1/2 weeks, waiting for parts. Dealers cannot stock everything, and getting parts from BRP is like trying to squeeze water out of a rock.

2010 RT-S Premier Edition (24,000 miles) 4 days.

2013 RT-S (19,000 miles) 3 hours

Overnight a couple times. When they told me September for oil filters, I took it home and bought the filters elsewhere. :yikes:

 

[granpa in Cincy]

2 weeks and counting - it's still there waiting on parts. 10 days to diagnose, rest for parts.
Have a loaner, so OK by me. Put 5 tanks of gas thru the loaner.

 

[Netminder]

3-4hrs tops. If my dealer would keep it longer he would provide a loaner!

3 days on my 2008 GS. 5 weeks so far on my 2014 RT. Combination of waiting for a replacement lock set, small (dealer) shop with other jobs going and my willingness to wait for the job to be done right (which it was not).
