The forward head on the engine is only a couple of inches from the back of the cab. There's a inspection panel in the lower rear part of the cab that is held in with push pins and is not air tight, it can be removed to work on the engine. Time for a trip to the dealer, it's a warranty item that Can am should repair asap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve had zero issues with this or herd of it being a problem with defenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But during my first few runs in Bear all the new paint burning off parts got pretty STINKY!! Not saying that is the issue... but it may be those new parts burning off excess paint. Good luck with that... And WELCOME TO THE FORUM. But let me ask you this.... WHY IS YOUR HOOD UP? Edited June 2, 2020 by A hunt 2 remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine i found the wind swirls back in behind my front and causes "negative air" which draws exhaust back in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I dont tilt the front windshield out the cab fills with exhaust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
