I have a 2019 Cub Challenger. Is there such a thing as a descent plow under $500

? 

Went for a nice trail ride for about 20 miles, came back, shut it off, and attempted to go for another ride. The electronic gear shifter will not go into park to start it up.  It reads neutral in the park position. Disconnected the battery and reconnected and it now read Park. But, when you put your foot on the brake to start it, it goes right back to neutral. Checked everything that I could think of and decided it has to be the 17 gear position sensor. Not certain this is the issue but I bought a used one on Ebay (could not locate a new one) and will try it. Any other possibilities?

I figured that it was some sort of exhaust or intake. Thought it maybe connected to the exhaust fume issue.

johnny L did you get the Noico material installed?   I got mine delivered this week and will try to install tomorrow.  My exhaust gasket was lost in shipping so I reordered from Cub.  Jon

Thanks. My research found that Noico was the best deal for the $ but I have not ordered it yet. I have another question; On the back wall of the cab, under the bed, is a rubber/plastic hose maybe 2-3" that is not capped. Is this some type of exhaust?

Thanks, that is what I figured but the first time I did it, it took about five seconds to kick in. It seemed OK after that.

Jon, need a little assistance. I took out the UTV for the first time yesterday. It did not come with a manual, and will try to locate one today. What is the sequence for putting it from 2wd to 4wd? 

Good luck

You had no choice but to fix the issue, but I would still call the company. Although they failed to notify all owners, of the recall, they will remain silent unless you call them on it.

Ouch! You could've probably ported the exhaust, and had a customer header made for that much lol.

How many miles on it before this happened? I know, CC should have contacted every owner. I would contact them anyway in regards to their recall and failure to contact you. Worth a try? Does anyone know if CC upgraded the manifold/muffler system in 2019 or 2020?

There is a recall on the faulty manifold which can crack/break. The company will only replace it if it cracks/breaks. It's called a "fix as fail." I spoke to a dealer who informed me that he has never had one come in with this conditions and he sells many. The new systems have been revised. The dealer did state that if it cracks, they photo it, then send it to the company to get the OK (or not) to proceed to replace it, which is quite expensive. Just something to keep in mind if this happened to you, and it's  worth a shot. Also, there is no time period to have it replaced. I ended up buying the 2019 model with 200 miles on it. I contacted the dealer to look up the history on it and it has never had any issues.

It isn't totally clear from your post. But if the unit you're looking at, has this condition. And the price reflects that. I'd contact a couple of different dealers and ask if they'd fix it for free.

Hello, looking at another 2018 CC MX EPS 750. I contacted CC and was informed that anyone with a cracked or broken manifold can go to their dealer and have it repaired with the 2019 update, at no cost. It is a "fix as fail" warranty of the manifold. Has anyone attempted to have it replaced?

Good! Thanks.

Is the gas pedal bolted or welded on? I will have to modify mine.

Sorry, the exhaust issue was for another person. Noico product 80 mil noise damper is what I am going with. 10 sq' per roll at $20. Dynamat is too expensive.

I have not experienced the exhaust issue on my 2019 CC Challenger 750. I took a good look at it yesterday and noticed that the exhaust manifold is corrugated/ looks like an accordion. I don't know if this is an upgrade to that issue or not. It seems as if the corrugated manifold would be somewhat forgiving and take the shock so it would not crack as others have experienced in older models.

I am ordering two  NOICO 80 mil Sound dampening mats. They are 10 sq' each and cost around $20 a piece. I have read that it is a very noisy machine compared to others. Earmuffs I guess. lol. I don't know if an exhaust extension would work for the fumes.

Funny ironic, I'm same height and figured a pedal mod and something under my heel so I can rest it on the floor and not having to lift my foot up to get at the pedal. Horrible angle of pedal and design.

Yes, only because it does not get trapped in the cab.

Same issue with mine. Any UTV with an enclosed, or partially enclosed cab traps the fumes as well as the noise. I took off my windshield, and side windows, kept the rear window on.

I am looking at a 2019 750 and same issue. The gas pedal is too high for me. I am considering cutting some length off of the arm and move it back and down then weld it.

Looking at a 2019 CC 750 with 200 miles on it. Are they descent machines? I want it for my farm.
