- Polaris Ranger Crew Northstar keeps getting a check engine light and goes into limp mode. Will a tune from Gilomen Innovations fix the problem? Is tuning worth the money? How fast will it make the Ranger? Ranger Crew Northstar Performance. Ranger Northstar top speed. Ranger Northstar acceleration.

Excellent project video!! Thanks and congrats on the new upgrade!!!
Thanks, I appreciate the feedback. We’re having a great time with it now
After watching this, I think I’ll be going with a Gilomen tune. 3second 0-60 improvement is huge.
I want to do the same but I have to buy one first.
That’s pretty fast
I really want a Polaris ranger. I like the utility and they’re capable off-road.
I really need a tune.
They're cool
We love ours
@@dfad879 yes they are
@@drinkswithdnr2970 I agree with Blake
goes great on rocks and gravel
I just had my primary fragment and take out my secondary and both inner and outer housings. It's worth doing periodic inspection of the sheaves on your primary. 3300km 2019 northstar crew.
Complete gilomen HD clutch kit is on the way with torque monster clutch kit and ecu tune.
@@johnhoogenraad7898 thanks for the heads up. I’ll be sure to keep up on inspections
That's really fast
Great information, I purchased a 2021 Ranger Northstar ultimate, no issues yet , just a couple questions from a real world driver , hows the engagement ? Smooth or jerky , how does the clutch kit work on the trails and did the ECM get rid of all your codes ?
Congrats on your purchase. I think the clutch actually engages smoother than it did stock. That’s when you’re just cruising. If you hammer it then it bites pretty hard so I wouldn’t advise doing that on a road or concrete 😆 I feel that eventually it will find a weak point. Hopefully just a belt. I’ve learned it helps to keep it in low if I’m climbing over rocks or going slow. I don’t smell the belt burning. On trails, if I’m going over about 8mph I’m in high. The best part is I haven’t had a code since and no starting issues. The ecm really wakes this thing up. I wish I would have gotten this right away. I kept my stock computer just in case I have to take it in.
Thanks for watching Mike
Hey man, what’s your top speed? I’m getting a crew in the next few months when it comes in but I just sold a regular cab that would run 82 with 30” terrabites on it. I know the crew won’t run that fast but I’m curious to know what the top speed is. Also, with the performance spring, did it not seem like it ran too high of RPM all the time? When I got my kit in for the regular cab I just sold, I used the mid range just because it didn’t scream as much at lower speeds. Thanks for the video man! Looking forward to hearing back from you
I’ve had it up to 75 I think it could have maybe gone faster but I ran out of smooth road. I think the rpm runs a little higher but nothing that concerns me. I think it keeps the clutch from slipping. Before I did this, it would eat belts. Thanks for watching Justin. Congrats on the crew. I love the extra space it provides.
Now I want to go off-roading
May I ask what trail you guys are on at 9:30. I really want to go there!! Great video.
Great question. That trail has a few names. Rainbow ridge, red rock canyon, are the trails you should look up. It’s all the same trail. Are you local to the Alaska interior?
@@DustinFaddis im in Anchorage But, frequent the Eureka area. I will extend my range to add this trail to my orbit.
@@wildmantann you won’t regret it. It’s an awesome ride
What 3 inch lift did you get and would you recommend getting a lift ? Was thinking about getting one for mine but don’t want to screw up the confront of the ride to much
We picked up the highlifter 3” lift. It’s simple and goes on in your garage in about an hour. The ride hasn’t changed much. We get so much out of it. The clearance helps so much off-road here in Alaska. It’s way too long to be that low
Did this help with the awful clunk i hear when first hitting the gas?
It definitely did. It’s the new clutch spring that helps that. It just engages smoother with that plus the tune. We’re very happy with it now.
Have you ever had issues with the HVAC flooding when crossing deeper water?
Good question… I was really concerned about that when I first started going through deep water. I haven’t had an issue yet. So far it’s been a great machine. After many deep water crossings and really deep mud, the A/C and heater both still work great.
Thanks for watching.
@@DustinFaddis Good to hear! I’m picking up my Northstar this week after ordering in March. No one has been able to answer the above question, until now. It seems folks outside of Alaska don’t risk anything deeper than a puddle. If only they knew what we put these machines through up here!
@@mawelge I spend good money on this machine. I plan to push it to its limits. Without abusing it of course. I take care of my vehicles and won’t do anything to intentionally damage it. I’d be really upset if driving it through some deep water damaged it. I would also let everyone know if it broke down doing something as simple as a River crossing.
@@mawelge I’ve gone through River crossings where the water came up over the hood which I wouldn’t recommend because that’s where the intake is on the northstar. It just barely came above the hood because of momentum through the River. I didn’t stall out or have any issues.
Can you tell me what 3" lift you are using in you Polaris Ranger Very intruded. I would like to use what you have Thanks BIG PHIL
I used the highlifter 3” lift
Does this upgrade void your warranty ?
Great question Greg… so I went into my local dealer and asked because it’s ultimately up to them. They said the entire warranty would stay intact with the exception of odd issues with the clutch and belt. Also if there was an issue with the computer that I replaced it wouldn’t cover that. That’s a pretty sensible trade off of you ask me. So we just went for it. Thanks for watching and commenting. We appreciate it.
It's been 2 yrs. Any reliability issues at all? Thx
No it’s been running great without any issues
