Hello all. I am new to this forum and new to SxS in general. I recently purchased an 16 Odes Dom 800 with the issue of a prominent knocking noise at idle and it’s very jerky in forward and reverse gears. It does not sound like an engine knock. I bought it cheap knowing about this problem with hopes of it being a cheap and fairly easy fix that I can do myself. Would a bad belt be the cause this symptom? I’m looking for a starting point to begin diagnosing and fixing the problem. I recorded a video of it but am not sure if I can post it on the forum. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I bought a 2021 Coleman 400 UTV from Tractor supply mainly because of the $2000 off black Friday sale ($6999). I wanted something to do some light hauling around the boat shop and figured this would be a better choice than a golf cart. Initial review is that for the money,it's got to be the best deal going. Fully equipped right out of the box with a lot of nice features. First off,everything worked,that's a good thing. First thing I noticed is that this thing is LOUD,so loud that I use foam ear plugs to run it. The rear axle is locked,like most 4 wheelers,so the tires scrub on tight turns and will tear up the lawn. I found some loose bolts and did a general inspection of everything and tightened up the loose ones as I found them. It's cold here in SE Michigan and I want to do some recreational use during the winter. I bought a 3 Star door and rear window soft enclosure and installed it. Top quality materials and fit great. I added some foam to close off all the gaps and it really does the job. Next I added a Ice Crusher heater kit that uses the coolant to provide heat in the cab. Quality parts and the kit was pretty much complete,I also added a coolant shutoff valve so I can direct all the coolant through the heater instead of the radiator,or blend it as I wish. The heater has a 3 speed fan and 2 directional outlets for this model and with the enclosure will warm it up to shirt sleeve temps at speed with the outside temps in the low 30's. I also added a Kolpin Stealth 2 auxiliary silencer, the exhaust note is definitely quieter and less raspy, but this rig is still noisy enough at speed that you need ear muffs or plugs. I changed out the headlight bulbs to LED's which are a big improvement from the halogens. I figured out a trailer hitch adapter for the oddball thing Colman provides. Now it's just run it in and break it in. For a 400, it is actually quicker and faster than I expected,the specs say 38, but it's closer to 50. Brakes are powerful and smooth. The solid rear axle makes this thing pretty capable,but you also have the push button 4 wheel drive and a push button front diff locker if you need it. All in, it's set up just the way I wanted it for under $8000.

Hello everyone! I'm Molly. I'm 54, and have been legally blind my whole life, which means I've never been able to drive. But I CAN see, just not as good as you guys. I finally own 5 acres of flat and pretty open land, and I used to have a great little Yamana gas golf cart that I could drive around, to help me do yard work... Then, it died. So now, I am the proud owner of a brand new Coleman UTV400! Whooo, it's got a lot more power than my golf cart had, but I'm getting used to it.
I have a couple of questions. Okay, now you guys out there, don't laugh at me, ok? Because I don't know ANYTHING about how engines work, or batteries, or any of this stuff! But I want to learn.
First, is there a way I can change out the headlights that came with it, for some really bright ones? The headlights are not very bright for me. Not even the 'bright' mode. I need light. A LOT OF LIGHT! Can I do this?
Also, I'd like to install some of these neat rock lights that go in the wheel wells. I don't want those colored kind, just bright ones, so I can see at night! I live in FL, so there is no snow, EVER, but I need more lights. It gets dark now early, 5:30! I'm not driving on the road, don't worry, just my land.
And while I'm at it, I'd really like to install some speakers. I need music when I'm working in the yard. I don't want to keep bringing my rechargeable bluetooth speaker with me. I'd like something that is more permanent. I like a lot of bass, so can anyone recommend something?
I know the speakers need to be wired somehow, and the ones I'm looking over at amazon come with everything........ but don't laugh-- but how do you wire it to the battery? I know I can do this, I just need guidance.
And I know you might want to suggest this, but no, I don't have anyone that can help me. I'm on my own. I don't know anyone here, and I live way out in the country, down a dirt road.... just give me some tips, and point me in the right direction (of a video hopefully that will explain stuff), and I am on my way!
Thank you all so much for any advice, tips, help, etc...
