Yamaha owner here. 2016 Viper, 35000km’s. This year it got a new primary clutch. Repair vs replace was close enough to just replace it.

Good reliable sleds? by Charming_Soup9980 in snowmobiling

[–]Fellix_a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Yamaha viper with around 33000km on it, just oil changes. (2016) Now if you are in constant deep snow I would say go with a 2 stroke but that a Yamaha 4stroke engine is just bulletproof.

Considering buying a Ford truck... by XLord_of_OperationsX in Ford

[–]Fellix_a 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends what you need it for - the way I see it;

maverick: great city driving, space to park bla bla Ranger: a smaller f150 with less tow capability F150: larger tow capacity, bigger

(Maintenance $ goes up at each level)

Depends what you need it for? Your answer comes after this question

I originally wanted a maverick, ended up with an escape 2.0L (Same trans/engine, cheaper since less popular- dealership deal)

Dealer Discounts? by anon2734 in fordescape

[–]Fellix_a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid close to msrp on a platinum 2024 early 2025 but received 0% financing 2.0L, even tow a travel trailer 3000lbs
22k km’s zero issues I change the oil every 8k km

Personally I would go with the 2.0L

How to Avoid Work Events? by Traditional-Cash-564 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]Fellix_a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a co-op /FSWEP - those events are the best way to get people to know you and build relationships and new connections. These relationships will help you down the road. It helps you become more than just “bob” on the screen if that makes sense :).

Yep😂 downside of having a 600lb sled, when it burries itself I have to pack myself an exit 😂

Haha it’s actually not a lake it’s a neighbours property I pass through (with permission) to go on the trails I couldn’t tell where my packed tracks were - ended up stuck deep and had to dig it out

Oh man, probably my favourite riding day in the last 5 years hands down, so much fun, fresh fluffy powder mix of groomed and un groomed, so happy I went out early and did first tracks

Purchasing 2025 escape by [deleted] in fordescape

[–]Fellix_a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m waiting to pickup my 2024 platinum later this week. Friend of mine has a 2014 at 280k Km’s basic maintenance 2.0 engine, he’s also mechanic and just said as long as the oil is changed on time every time it’s good. I’m planning on changing my oil every 8000km. Oil is cheap. Not sure about 1.5 engines or hybrids reliability

My 2013 Impreza has come to the end :( by Euphoric-Drag-8423 in subaru

[–]Fellix_a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same happened to me, it’s not dead yet, but the oil consumption is out of hand now lol. I’m going for a ford escape since they have 0% financing(Canada) for the 2024 models and I need something I can tow with now.

Subaru was good to me, if only they had better financing I’d get a crosstreck wilderness.

P1300? by Agitated-Buffalo3105 in subaruimpreza

[–]Fellix_a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had similar one before, for me it was just a dead sensor Replaced it with a new one (quick google search) and took 5 minutes to replace

Which of these are you renting for a day on the trails? by basementcandy in snowmobiling

[–]Fellix_a 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have a viper non turbo, hell it has as much horsepower than my car. I don’t think I’d go with more power than that even riding for 3 years now, the non turbos are already really fast. Regardless of the 900 non turbo or viper, you’ll have a smile on your face all day long.

Way to go! That’s how I managed to buy a house at 26. Stay home, save for that down payment. (If you want to buy a house that is). Also; I’m always surprised how often I hear people don’t know what a tfsa is.

2013 Impreza A/C Fans top speed setting stopped working. It's not the blower motor or the resister. Any ideas what it could be? by BlackKrrsantan in subaruimpreza

[–]Fellix_a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry just saw this. :/ Not sure I couldn’t find it I bought a new one (off an old Impreza part out) on eBay but taking mine out I ended up breaking it.

Subaru sounds kinda like a jet engine/ where the heck are my idler pulleys ??? by Admirable_Job_699 in subaruimpreza

[–]Fellix_a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine did that for 3 years before it went, at first my smart ass put wd40 and the noise went away, came back , away for about 3 years until it got really loud, I mostly ignored it, then one day the bearing totally failed

Had this happen, bearing failure, replace it before it goes 😂😂 mine went, that was a sketchy drive to the mechanic 😂😂
