I like it and definitely think it was the right choice for me. This vehicle is a true workhorse. It has plenty of power. I just plowed 13" of snow with it and was very surprised how much power and traction it maintained while pushing snow. Locking the differential allows you to plow very slowly without fear of losing momentum. Honestly, my only complaint is the loudness of the engine and exhaust. It's a loud diesel. Especially while driving full throttle. The reason I got the Kioti instead of the Kubota is that the Kubota only had a top speed of 25mph. The Kioti will go 35mph. Might not seem like much but when driving on roads, it makes a difference.

That’s great CSM.  You must have the K9?  What type of plow did you get, was it hired to install?  I have 2200PS, and after the first year of warranty problems, I like mine too.  Mine tops out at about 24-25 mph, but I don’t run it that fast.  It’s too loud.  I don’t have a plow, but I’m thinking of getting one.  I did install the skid plates, CV guards, roof, windshield and light horn set.  Sadly mine has so many problems from the get go, the dealer had it 7 of the first 12 months.

I guess you got a bad build. The only issue I've had is a coolant leak due to a loose hose clamp. No other issues so far. The plow is a sno-way 6' straight blade. Power up/down and side to side. Really nice feature that the sno-way offers that I haven't seen any of the others offer is a power down mode. Most plows are floating or gravity down but this one has a feature that pushes about 300lbs of pressure down to scrape to the asphalt the first pass.

Any Kioti owners out there know of any websites or companies that offer aftermarket performance parts for the 24hp diesel?

Resending this for members that may have insight and haven't seen my first request.

Thanks again for any input

I have not found much, other than mirrors on Amazon, as aftermarket for my Kioti, 2200PS

Funny you mention that. I purchased the factory mirrors from Kioti. Well while plowing close to Arborvitaes the passenger mirror broke off. Turns out the only thing holding it on was a bolt just countersunk in the plastic mold. Terrible design! So I replaced the mirror part with Amazon purchased cheap UTV mirrors. They look and work better then the much more expensive factory mirrors. If interested I can upload a pic.

      Code Reader for Delphi MT05 Coleman UTV 400 Hisun
      By Homeowner A
      Is there a code reader available for the Coleman UTV 400?  I tried using the HUD ECU Hacker software and cables/adapters but no luck OBD to delphi 6 pin and KKL VAG as well as ELM327.  Will not connect.  I was able to get it to connect randomly a couple of times, but haven't been able to since.  I was able to clear and read the codes briefly.  I'm aware of the Tiny Scan 301 but it doesn't seem to be readily available.  There's a few out there but they are expensive.

      Want a new work UTV; who and what should I look for?
      By FTG-05
      I want to ditch my Kubota RTV-XG850 and its moronic twitchy throttle design flaw, get rid of the problematic engine and the 40 mph purposely throttled speed.
      So far, I'm looking at the Honda Pioneer 1000 and the Polaris Ranger 1000, both of which have 1000-1500 lb payload bed capacity.
      What other makes and models should I be looking at?
       
      Thanks for the help!

      SXS No Crank at the Key and No Spark
      By Matthew Smith

       I just picked up this project that I was told would crank, but not start.  This is what I’ve figured out so far….
      I installed a new battery and get all dash lights, head lights, and brake lights on when turning the ignition on.  Fuel pump even turns on.  It does not crank with the key, but would when I jumped the starter solenoid, so I replaced it…..no change.
      Figured I’d check for spark and compression while I was dorking around.  Compression is 150 psi, but there is no spark.  Replaced the spark plug… no change.
      So, is my new starter solenoid bad?  Could it be the brake or gear position switches even though the brakes and neutral lights come on?  Not sure where to go from here.
