Before You Service the Engine
Maintaining the engine on your 2011 Can-Am Outlander 400 EFI 400 requires using the right lubricant and carefully checking the level after refilling.

How much oil does a 2011 Can-Am Outlander 400 EFI 400 take?
The engine oil capacity is listed at 3.17 quarts. Because the amount added during a routine drain may vary from this figure, follow the correct level-check procedure when refilling.
What kind of oil does a 2011 Can-Am Outlander 400 EFI 400 take?
The engine-oil viscosity shown for this model is 10W-40. The available oil-product listings include Formula 4-Stroke Power Sports Synthetic Motor Oil, 10W-40 Synthetic ATV/UTV Engine Oil. For a service, choose oil that meets the engine’s actual application requirements, not just a product name.
Why does four-stroke engine oil need the right application rating?
Engine oils vary based on their additive packages and friction characteristics. Since some powersports engines use the same oil for both the engine and a wet clutch or transmission, it is important to match the manufacturer's specific requirements alongside the viscosity. This listing does not confirm your specific clutch design.
