Just picked up this Pioneer 520. Coming from ATVs. Had a Rancher FA6. Miss the DCT. I’ll have to get used to this clunky ESP. I use Rotella T6 in all of my Hondas and I have read that Rotella helps after the 100 mile oil change.

now to get 100 miles on her…

Howdy from Oklahoma and welcome to the club.

Yes, synthetic oil and miles will help the noisy shifting, but you will never de-clunky it completely. The good news is, that the tranny is (almost) bullet proof.
