POLARIS DOWN! 2015 Polaris Sportsman 570 Issues
Vložit
- čas přidán 28. 11. 2020
- This video recaps the issues we are having with our 2015 Polaris Sportsman 570. The issue is that the four wheeler will idle, but once you press the gas, it dies. It will only idle for about 2 minutes before it dies. This is just part of the issues we have had with this machine. We have less than 400 hours on it and it has been nothing but problems. We believe it's a fuel pump issue. Come along for the journey as we start the process of repairing it.

I have the exact same issue on my 2014 Polaris 570 Sportsman. You are correct that this machine is trouble. I have had power steering issues, Regulator issues and now the fuel pump. When and if I get this running it is going on the market. Thanks for the information and direction.
Thanks Matt, I agree, this unit is less than reliable. I see a Honda in my future.
Man I have the exact same machine with the exact same story, replaced the fuel pump 3 times. Put 2 new batteries in mine. Still doesn’t run. It has 850 miles in it. I think I have spoke the same exact sentences you have! Man these machines seem to be lemons! Glad you got yours running again. Had mine run about 3-4 months at a time. Ran good the first 450-500 miles but the last 300 plus miles have been a total joke!
Sorry to hear that. We traded it in on a Honda and we love it.
I have two 2015 sportsman’s. 570 and ETX. bought brand new in 2015 and never had a problem. Still have them. I think you got the lemon
Glad you got a good one. I didn’t. Looking at the other comments, several others had issues as well. My next one will be a Honda. Last Polaris I’ll own. Have a good week.
Scott, it is cold and very windy here wind out of the north around 30 mph gusts. Makes me want to go south. LOL. Enjoyed the Polaris review, been thinking about buying a new one. I will think twice after this. Thanks and God Bless!
Thanks Howie, I’m sure they make a good product, but I got a lemon. Oh well. Glory be to God, have a good week.
Iv got 2016 450 same issues. Changed the plug and battery so far so now I guess I'll change the fuel pump. Thanks!
Good luck. Mine has been running well since fuel pump replacement.
Not certain of Honda’s fuel filter/pump configuration. However, I’ve never had an issue with multiple Honda Ranchers and a Pioneer. Reliability is worth the price differential for me. Great channel - thanks for the posts.
Hello Emgen, I think you’re right. I see a Honda in my future.
I have a ETX and lucky if it has a hunderd hours on it brought new same issue with running not even a full tank through it
Sorry to hear that. Hope you get it fixed.
Thank you for the information, having same issue.
Hope it helps. Ever since I changed the fuel pump, it’s ran great. Only downside is I lost the fuel gauge. But I fill it up every weekend, so no big deal. Thanks for watching. Appreciate it.
Mine had to have the fuel pump replaced at370 miles. Oh it eats battery’s at least one per year. This was. My first quad but it will be my last Polaris!
Yes I replaced mine with a Honda. So Happy now !
Yoh bud, i totally understand your comment about things gotta work on a farm! I had such an issue with an old 2nd hand tractor, and you know what, i put a 9mm hole in the fuel tank (actually 3), stood a couple of feet away, and lit it up! It burnt for 2 days and after 10 years the wreckage is still there where i burnt it. Made me feel quite relieved that i never ever had to break my back fixing and struggling with the piece if sh!t.
Unfortunately i didnt make a vid if it, so my suggestion is make a vid and post it to polaris. And if pissivle, use a .45 ACP or 12 ga. 😂
Good luck.
South African Farmer.
I can totally relate. Luckily, since I replaced the fuel pump, it’s been running OK. I still don’t trust it, but it’s been better. When that day comes, it will be a 12ga and buckshot. Haha.
Fuel pump comes right out. No need to remove the handlebars
You are correct. We didn’t.
i hope you get it up a running soon, we have grate luck with our older ones
So far, no luck. Replaced fuel pump and same results. Frustrating.
Getting Hank Hill vibes, but yeah I found this video while I was searching for issues to do with my 2016 sportsman 570 .... been a good machine outside of a code that no one knows what it is and it's not even in the book and no fuel pump went out
Thanks for watching. Mine has been mostly problems. I’m not impressed with it. Maybe I got a lemon.
Little late to the thread, but don't forget about the reliability, dependability, 10 year belt warranty and absolute great ride of a Yamaha Kodiak or Grizzly 700. Ive rode Honda dirt bikes my whole life and I love Honda. But, personally i think Yamaha makes the best ATV's and SXS's. I'm having similar issues with my dads 2015 Sportsman 570, Im glad its not my machine, but we need it working right now.
Thanks for watching. I’ve never had a Yamaha. I’ll have to check them out.
Yup, I'm a sad owner of the 570 sportsman as well Scott. Cattle turds as well !! seems like its a bad apple in a bushel theory, because I hear some people have zero problems !! I've had voltage issues, solenoid issues, relay and battery issues, starter switch issues, brake safety start issues, headlight/tail light issues etc. etc. but, when she does run, shes a goer, as far as a 570 is concerned. Even Polaris forums, can never really narrow down Mechanical/Electrical issues, and always seems to be a guessing game with trial and error.
Next purchase, Can/Am, or Honda.....finished with Polaris
Thx again for your story, God be with You and Yours !
I’m right there with you. Last Polaris for me.
Thank you for this, was thinking about buying one, not now!!!
I’m disappointed in mine, perhaps it’s just me. Please do your own research, but I’ve been disappointed to say the least.
I have exact unit. Due to the battery location I will never buy this model again. Thinking caps needed when engineering these.
You nailed it! Right? And if you look under the seat, there was room to put it there. Idiots. I’m done with Polaris. Just got a Honda and I love it.
I’ve got the same quad and I agree with you. They are junk. Turn your steering wheel in the pump come right out. I’ve also got the same thing going on right now with mine.
Thanks for watching. After I changed the fuel pump, it’s worked fairly well. Gas gauge doesn’t work. Good luck with yours.
There’s also an issue with a bad or wrong fuel pump o ring on some. Failing way early
I have dealt with Polaris watercraft here at the lake, much the same troubles and swimming in the middle of a lake pulling your watercraft back happens 1 time and then they get sold. Kawasaki from here on when I buy any watercraft. Sorry to hear you have had so much trouble with your Polaris product as well.
Thanks DJ, maybe I just got a lemon. Sometimes those companies try so hard to roll out new models each year that maybe they overlook some things.
Same thing going on with mine, trash machine. I got a 2001 Polaris sportsman 400 and 500 HO and they are great, still run like a champ.
Thanks for watching. On a positive note, since I replaced the fuel pump, it’s been running OK.
I've had several of these is my shop .... fuel pump issues mostly , stay away from OEM Pumps, they are JUNK !! The only one I will install unless the customer demands O.E.M. parts .... Is Quantum-Pumps !! 🤨👍🏻
Appreciate the feedback. I had bad luck with mine. Just traded it in on a Honda Rubicon.
I love your video! I just posted in a Polaris forum I have a love hate relationship with my 2014 570 EFI. I did replace the fuel pump and 3 months later... it's stalling again! You are 100% correct about the poor design of the machine! I have a horse farm and use it everyday! horse poop hauling and all. At my age I don't want to fix stuff I want to play! My grandkids came over and said " Grandma, why are you working on the 4wheeler again?" I said "because Polaris built a piece of big poop!" end of story... still trying to fix the current problem (searching youtube) found you!
Glad you like it. Since I replaced the fuel pump, it’s been running OK. Other than the fuel gauge only working half the time. Haha. Last one I’ll own. I’ll buy a Honda next time.
Very informative. Thank you
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching.
I have the same problem with I can't find the oil filter or dip stick on the same machine a Polaris tks Dave nett
Thanks Dave. I got off to a rocky start with this Polaris. However, after changing the fuel pump, knock on wood, it’s been running pretty good.
Always a pain working on those things and keeping up with all the screws and pieces. I feel for ya!
Thanks, it’s a challenge to keep it all running.
I've owned a Honda Foreman for twenty one years and for about twelve of those years it only required basic maintenance. The hour meter broke around 1900 hrs and that was ten years ago. It still starts every time I push the start button. It's a little thread bare now and will require some tlc this winter but if I felt the inclination for new atv I wouldn't hesitate at buying a Honda.
Good advice. I think Honda is a more reliable machine.
I haven’t been thoroughly impressed with my 2016 either compared to the quality I felt that they had in 98 when I had my 500 sportsman. At like 300 hours I had to replace all the wheel bearings and I’ve had to replace a couple CV shafts and I don’t go muddying or anything just driving around the farm. I also had the foot brake piston go out at 200 hours. We did buy a Ranger in April and so far I’ve had pretty good luck with it no issues so far. My sportsman hasn’t had any engine problems so I’m thankful for that. I agree the battery is in a piss poor location on the old 98 it used to be located up high on the left side of the seat with it being down there they go underwater and get mud and everything packed up there.
Thanks for watching. Appreciate it. I’m going to see if I can get it running, then access whether or not it will find a new home.
Just curious if you were able to get it figured out! Curious what it was.
Hello, yes ultimately it was the fuel pump. It’s been running OK since then.
Sorry you guys have 570 problems, I have a 2017 that has been flawless. If you google it these are well known to be as good or better then the 500 h.o. they replaced and very long lasting reliable quads. Maybe the fuel system got revised in the later years.
Thanks for the input. Maybe I got a lemon. Glad yours is running well. Last Polaris I’ll own.
My 2013 sportsman 500 (carb) was great. No problems. But my dads 2015 570, problems, including same as you. Seems once they went to FI they had a lot of issues.
My battery was also in a much better location
I agree. This particular year was not a good one for the Sportsman.
I have the same machine and since day 1 it has had starting issues and always drags when starting or takes a few times to start. Then here recently i was driving in the yard at 15 mph and the 4 wheeler cut off on me. I started diagnosing the problem and found after multiple trouble shooting I had to pull the engine and found the i lost a valve and damaged the piston and compeltely destroyed the head. Let me remind you this machine has 53 hours and 115 miles on it and has never seen water or mud. This machine has only been used for at home or deer lease to and from blind. I talked to polaris dealership and since its out of warranty they could do nothing about it. This was a lemon and I will never buy polaris again.
Amen brother. I’m with you.
Was it the fuel pump?
Yes.
I'm having the same problems. They charged me $700 to replace the fuel pump. Now it's doing it again with less than 50 miles on it since they worked on it. Now if they work on it they replace the fuel pump and gas tank and that's expensive.
Sorry you’re having these issues. I feel your pain. It was definitely the fuel pump on my ride. Thanks for watching.
I feel ya. I have a 2020. From the start overheating issues at only 15hrs now about 50hrs check engine light and feels like it’s in limp mode when u hit the throttle. Super irritating
Sorry. Totally relate.
I had the same problem. Replaced fuel pump. Still got the problem. Mine runs until it’s up to good operating temp then my problem comes back.
Thanks for watching. I had two issues, the fuel pump helped a lot. The other issue was mine kept overheating. So, I hard wired the electric fan motor to run all the time. That solved a lot of my issues. So far, it’s been running good lately. But, I will never buy another one. Honda is the only way to go!
Wow! That’s a crazy design. I have a 350 Honda fourtrax that I’ve never had any problems with and have had it for over 12 years. Not gonna mess with a Polaris after watching this. We are hoping to get a good used side by side that we need desperately here in the homestead, but not gonna be looking for Polaris. Lol 😂 Yes sir that’s my saying the proof is in the pudding. 👍🏻👍🏻😁😁
Thank you sir, I’ve been disappointed from day one. Nothing but Honda or Kubota for me in the future.
@@HeritageFarmsTexas yes sir I don’t think you will go wrong with a Honda or Kubota. Good luck. 👍🏻😇🙏🏻😊
I have the same piece of shit with all the same problems. I’ve replaced fuel pump twice
Sorry to hear you have one too. We cut our losses and traded it in on a Honda rubicon. We couldn’t be more happier. It’s not as fast, but it’s perfect for the ranch.
Less complaining more fixing thanks
You do t have to watch.
Whats your opinion about polaris?
Im about to buy a polaris 570 2015.
Buy Honda.
Did you ever get it fixed? Was it the fuel filter?
Yes, it was pump with built In Filter.
I’m 2015 sportsman 570, turned 455 hrs here on the farm. Running at idle but pops and shuts down when you give it gas.
How many hours did it take you to replace your pump system? Thanks 😊
Sounds like my issue. Probably 2-3 hours if you know what you’re doing. , but I work slow.
@@HeritageFarmsTexas I Replaced the fuel pump and it still has the same problem Idles to fast and wont run over 20 miles an hour and the check engine light just came on
@@randydunbar1901 did you ever solve the issue?
@@randydunbar1901mine is doing the same thing. Replaced the pump and it ran good. Now it got kinda warm then died and backfired
I bought a battery relocation kit by the back tire, it was a job but worth it, I’m trying to figure out why mine ran fine when I parked it now it just turns over but won’t fire, have spark and shot some starting fluid in it and still it doesn’t even attempt to fire, I’m lost at this point.
Hello, thanks for watching. Could be fuel pump. They’re notorious for those issues.
Could not have said it any better!!!! I have the same bike 2018 and bought it new ! Been in the shop 8 times , now it bogs down !!! Polaris at head quarters pretty much told me i bought a Lemon and there is NO way we will give you a different Bike and neither would the Dealer !! When it runs it’s a good bike but it will leave you STRANDED with costly parts and time . That’s all I got to say about that !
Amen brother, I think our bikes are from the same lemon tree. What’s a shame, is I would love to buy a side by side ranger, but never again.
Is 400 hours a lot? How long did it take you to get 400 hours in? Hope you can fix it up!
Hello, It took us almost five years to reach that hour total. Hopefully we can fix it. More to follow. Thanks for watching.
@@HeritageFarmsTexas Oh ... five years is much longer than I imagined. Good luck with the repair 🙋♂️
I will pray for that Polaris and you for no skinned knuckles. God Bless.
Thanks Mike. You’re a wise man. Yes, that’s the thing I hate the most. there is always some skin left behind on these projects.
Have you tried unplugging the mass air flow sensor to see if it will run? Just curious if you checked that. If it will run unplugged and then die when you plug it back in that could be the problem.
Hello, yes I did try that. Turned out it was the fuel pump. Thanks for watching.
It definitely makes me look elsewhere for an ATV for sure. It almost sounds like the fuel solenoid if it has one like my machines. I know how you feel. My pipe fusion machines use a three cylinder kubota. The fuel filters on the side of the engine along with the filter cup assembly.
Thanks for watching. Equipment issues are so frustrating
@@HeritageFarmsTexas
I'm like you. I get so frustrated when things dont work like you expect them to. Let us know what you find!
Oh my Kubotas are diesel.
Congratulations on their new house
I bought my 570 new in 2015 been flawless ridden very hard but I do hate the battery location . Your problem is Probably fuel. Pump
Yes it was the Fuel Pump.
Did the fuel pump fix it I'm having the same issues with my 2016 570
Hello, yes the fuel pump solved the issue. It’s been running OK since then.
No issues with my 570, it out performs most. Just like all vehicles these days there not so fun to work on.
Thanks for watching. Appreciate it.
Mate having the same issue. Now she won't even start. What do you do to fix it?
Thanks for watching. Ultimately ended up changing the fuel pump out
My 2016 Polaris 570 is doing the same thing. Was it the fuel pump? What did you find was the issue. Thanks
It was definitely the fuel pump. Once we replaced it, it’s been running fine. Good luck with yours.
@@HeritageFarmsTexas how do you get the pump / filter out of tank? Do you have to remove the tank?
No a lemon - simply poor design and workmanship... How did your new pump and filter work/ fix the issue?
The for the info.
Works ok, but gas gauge now stopped working. Always something.
Same problem 😶
I sold mine and bought a Honda. So happy now. Good luck.
every car and sxs made today has a fuel sock no more fuel filters external anymore.
Yep and I regret that.
I hate mine too. Nothing but voltage regulator problems. I want a can am now
I agree, the Can Am's look great
I'm having this same issue out of my 2016. I bought the ATV brand new off the showroom floor and this will most likely be the second fuel pump on this piece of garbage with only 430 miles?! WTF?! I've heard of lemons but these Polaris machines are absolute turds. I've owned Honda after Honda and never had any issues like these. My brother even sank one in a pond and it still ran better than this dang Polaris. It might've smoked a little bit but at least it would idle.
I agree. My next one will be a Honda for sure. Since I repaired the due pump, the fuel gauge has stopped working. I’m still having overheating issues as well.
You can get the pump out no problem… just turn the handle bars to the right half turn. Its really an easy job… i can remove, rebuild and reinstall one of these pumps in less than an hour.
Thanks for watching. Appreciate the feedback.
So what fixed it.
Fuel pump?
Yes, the fuel pump fixed it. Been running OK since then.
I have the same bike it's definitely your fuel pump I've went through Three in the last year there pump is too small if you ask me
Thanks Travis. You’re spot on. It’s been running good since I replaced it. Not sure how long it will hold up. I’ve been disappointed in this quad.
Yeah brother I’m working on a neighbors 2016 570 right now backfire is Pops Bailey idles pulled everything apart I’m gonna run a fuel pressure test on it tomorrow morning I’m guessing it’s the pump because I put my hand over the snorkel on the top of the airbox it actually sucked the case in pretty far and then started to run right so it was Pulling fuel like a bastard,so I’m guessing it’s the pump, but you’re right these things are a bitch to work on in a poor design. I have a 2005 scrambler, and a 2001 that has actually been to hell in back hundreds and hundreds of hours on this machine “carbureted “ no senses, and relatively easy to service…. After watching your channel and talking to people that know Polaris is I guess these particular machines are notorious for bad pumps.
It’s the pump. Thanks for watching. Side note, mine has been running decent since then.
@@HeritageFarmsTexas that’s good to hear she’s running good now. I just did a pressure test and only receive 25 pounds and it wouldn’t hold a prime, soon as you shut the machine off boom right down to zero.I put a new pump in it 59 pounds of pressure she runs beautiful now. Great video keep up the good work🇺🇸🇺🇸
I have a 2015 Polaris that I gave to my son, and it is doing the samething. I have a 2017 Polaris Sportsman 570 and having issues with it on the console, it flashes from temp and then back to like when starting up saying P O L A R I S and flashes. So, I am trying to find out what needs to happen on CZcams as not to take to dealership. I need to save money as well.
Thanks for watching. I’ve been very disappointed in ours. Never again.
Not jsut one bad one. My friends 2017 570 starts, runs for a couple of minutes, then dies. Been in the shop 3 times and has otherwise just sat broke. Dealer messes with it. Has been through everything. they can't figure it out. I wonder if it's the computer. Don't know. I went with another brand because of this.
Mine was doing same thing. It was the fuel pump. Mine has been working great since then.
I bought a used Polaris 570 Midsize Ranger, that I knew had issues. I thought I could find the problems and fix them easily. But----- Three codes were showing, and they all pointed to the throttle body. Low voltage, and position sensors out of sync. The dealer was no help. Expensive, and they don't know any more about the Polaris than I do. I ended up finding some wires going to the throttle body that were worn in two. I fixed them, and the three original codes went away, but a new code appeared. It says "the limp home mode position check failed." 0 520280 31 In my attempts to fix the machine, I ordered a used throttle body from a "reputable" company, and so tomorrow, I will put the original throttle body back on the machine and see if that changes anything. it could be that the throttle body I bought is not compatible with my machine. In all the information I have looked at, i have found no "fix" listed for any of the trouble codes listed. You would think that if a trouble code is listed, there would be some information somewhere telling the technician (me) what to do to fix the problem. If you can help, I would appreciate it.
Hello, Unfortunately I’m no help on this one. I would take the same approach you did. Try to understand the code and then work backwards to fix it. All in all, I’m not impressed with Polaris. That’s my experience. I agree on the dealers as well. All I can say is my Kubota has been outstanding!
Did it work? I’m having the same issue? Same machine
Hello, No. I put in the new fuel pump a couple days ago and the problem still exist. I’m so frustrated with this machine. Thanks for watching.
@@HeritageFarmsTexas you changed out the entire fuel pump module?
I bought a kit that included new fuel pump, regulator. You still use the original “frame” that’s inside the gas tank. Unfortunately, it didn’t fix it. However, it will shoot gas out of the tank. So I at least know the new pump is working.
I’ve been having similar issue. When you change the fuel filter do you change hoses. I don’t know much about mechanics but a mechanic said maybe the fuel hose has some crap in it and the crap is being sucked up against the carburetor why it works some times (not for long) and then it starts choking again. I am at wits end as well dealership has no clues. Need to fix and sell as well.
When we changed the filter, we blew out the hoses with air to make sure there was no debris. In our case, it was strictly the fuel pump.
Only issues I
Have with my 2015 is the seat is melting and won’t stay fitted
Thanks for watching. Glad yours is running well.
Fuel system. Start by making sure you have good fuel. Then filters. Then pump.
Lmao I just heard the filter is in the tank, God have mercy on you... I agree with the CEO!
Amen brother, Haha. I think I’m going to listen to the CEO, I see a Honda in my future. Can you believe the fuel filter/pump is in the tank? Really?
I really think this type of thing is related to planned obsolescence. They are trying to eliminate any type owner maintenance by making it so cumbersome people give up.
Southern WestIron, I think you’re spot on. Very frustrating to say the least. Thanks for watching.
My one giving problems from day one as well, rubbish quads.
Thanks for watching. I’m not happy with mine.
These Polaris 570’s are junk. Constant problems with the fuel system. Mine is 5 years old, almost 150 hours. Looking at my 3rd fuel pump. Starts sometimes but will not run past idle.
You’re so right. I’m on second fuel pump now.
A Yamaha, Suzuki or Kawasaki would be good options too. The Japanese brands are better built.
Thanks for watching. Appreciate it.
It's your fuel pump
Thanks. You’re right. Replaced it and it’s working OK now.
Got one doing same thing put fuel pump in and same thing
I have mixed opinions on that machine. I would not buy another one.
Well I put new fuel pump in and it's run s great check fuel pressure should have 39 psi I think but I was ready to give away but it's good so far I'll keep u info
I actually have done quite a bit of research now and the problem isn't the fuel pump like everyone is claiming. The problem is the idle sensor is out of adjustment and needs to be fixed
czcams.com/video/HtmREu3lYTw/video.html
Thanks for watching. Fuel pump solved my problem.
@@HeritageFarmsTexas It very well could be the problem, I haven't had time to test my theory yet or take my rig to the shop but I did find that video I shared about the idle adjust sensor that could do the same thing.
Did that fix yours. I cause I changed my fuel pump 2 times and every time I change it it runs perfect then gets hot and dies and backfires and then just keep turning over but want start
Thats the way all vehicles are now a-days my guy… find me a modern vehicle without a fuel pump in the tank!
Thanks for the feedback and commenting. Have a good day.
Maybe the injector?
Turned out to be the fuel pump. What a pain. Thanks for watching.
@@HeritageFarmsTexas It was the pump? Previous replies you mentioned the issue was still there after replacement?
Polaris 570 is real crap..
I totally agree. Wish I would have bought a Honda. Thanks for watching.
@@HeritageFarmsTexas I bought a new Yamaha Grizzly 700 today 👍🏼
Congrats! Good choice.
@@HeritageFarmsTexas thanks 🙏🏼
Merican engineering
Thanks for watching.
those polaris 4 wheelers are junk.
I like mine when it’s running. Haha, that’s 50% of the time. Last Polaris for me.
It’s not a Chevy, get over it.
You’re right! It’s not.
LOL Honda sucks
Thanks for watching.
