P700m4 NORTH EAST INDIANA SERVICE CENTER PIONEER 700

[searlest]

Can someone please give a recommendation for a good service center in the North East Indiana area

I am 45 Mile South of Fortwayne and 115 Mile north of Indy

My machine has 500 hours / 2000 miles

I only issue I have that i know for sure is the clutch is slipping when I first take off when the unit is cold.

After it gets warmed up slippage is no longer a issue?

Let it warm up a little. Maybe 1-2 minutes with regular oil. I switched to synthetic and now idle for less than a minute and have no slippage. I wouldn’t take it in for that. They will just let it warm up, then drive it and say it’s normal.

If you are talking real cold... Like freezing temps. Let it warm to one bar on the dash temp gauge!

And check the oil level following the instructions step by step. I believe the 700 owners have reported slightly better performance when oil is right at the top of the range on the dipstick, maybe slightly overfull?

Mine does the same thing, has since new! Now I start it and put in gear, wait with a little bit of throttle until it moves good to go! By the way Welcome to the board.

I always let mine warm up , it doesn't take but a couple of minutes here to hit 1 bar. It never slips.

Don't believe your clutch is slipping as there in not a clutch on the 700, there is a automotive type transmission and torque converter which is designed to slip up to a certain rpm. Make sure you are using the correct oil as unlike a car the engine oil is used by the transmission and like others have said make sure the engine is starting to warm up.
