I purchased a new 2023 Landmaster UTV L4 in October of 2023. UTV didn't seem to have as much power of the demo L4 that I drove but figured once it broke in it would be better. After about a week the unit started bogging down backfiring and stopping. Gas fumes really bad, wait a few minutes and it would start up again. Brought it back to the dealer and after keeping it for a few weeks said he couldn't find anything wrong with it. Got it back home and it started acting up again, brought it back to dealer a week later and he said he found couple things that might cause it to do run bad and he was able to replicate the issue but didn't really know what was wrong. Got it back home again after being at dealer for several weeks and the unit started running bad again right away. Brought it back to dealer and he went back and forth with Kohler about possible fixes but just checked somethings and try to swap a few parts but still runs bad. I called Landmaster HQ to speak with someone about a refund and was told that was handled at the dealer level. Dealer called Landmaster and they told him they didn't do refunds or exchanges especially with units that had problems. The dealer is now trying to get a new engine to but I have not heard anything as of yet. I did file complaint with Better Business Bureau and they accepted my claim and reached out to Landmaster. The National Service Manager called me and said the he had been contacted by the BBB about the complaint and he would look into it. I told him that I would just like to have my down payment of $2,000.00 returned and never mind the over $1,000.00 I have paid in notes for a UTV that I cannot even ride on without hoping it gets me around the neighborhood. I have found out that the 2024 Landmaster UTVs will have Vanguard engines due to issues with the Kohler engines. Very disappointed in what is "Proudly Made in the USA" and the way Landmaster has treated this disabled veteran!

Top speed is 30mph on flat grass ground. but it will not go up minor hills forward or reverse without a runing start. If you start at the bottom of the hill machine will stop about 1/2 way up. I have the engine cover off and you can see the outside of the drive clutch will stop spining., and the engine does bogg down some. Dosent matter if engine is cold or warmed up. Seat belts are connected. Fuel is clean
I am the 5th shop to look at it and different shops have replaced the fuel pump, injector, ign coil, wet clutch,
I am not sure how to check for codes with this machine, can anyone teall me how to do it?
Compression with hot eng is 145, valves adjusted to .005 with a cold engine. Dash shows 426 hours
I am not convinced it's an engine problem

I’m new to this forum and hope I can find some advice. I have a year unknown Landmaster LM650 with original Subaru 650 motor. I want to put a muffler silencer on it. Has anyone done this with good success and, if so, can you tell me which brand and model you used. TIA

My father-in-law has a Hisun 750. It has started to not change gears while running. He can turn it off, change gears, then restart and it will change. I thought it might have something to do with the brake but can’t find any info. Thanks in advance for any info.

just an update on my MSU 500 . For all the misery it caused me the first 2 yrs, and the combination of some quality YAMAHA parts, it has now become a reliable ,useful UTV without the constant fear of having to push or tow it back from trails. I have not had a single issue pop up in a very long time.. FINALLY!....and as a side note, I just bought a C FORCE 600 ATV to replace an old and well used Honda that finally after 18 yrs gave up a rod bearing. So far the new one has really impressed me .. I like the new Power Steering and this CVT Auto Trans is new to me on an ATV .. I m used to constant shifting on my Hondas . It also has something I have never seen. Its EBS engine brake system, as soon as you let go of throttle, it engine brakes you to a stop rather quickly.. its great idea for the grandkids safety . Takes a little getting used to tho.. All in all, I like it. We shall see how durable it is after break-in.. I do "RIDE" them! .....and they honor their warrenty! and the dealer is 15 minutes away..
