Oil and Maintenance Guide for 2012 Can-Am DS 90 90
Before You Service the Engine
Regular maintenance for your 2012 Can-Am DS 90 90 requires using the right lubricant and carefully checking the level after refilling. Since a published capacity might not match the exact amount needed after a routine drain, identify the proper refill and level-check procedure before you remove the drain plug.
What type of oil does a 2012 Can-Am DS 90 90 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.
How much oil does a 2012 Can-Am DS 90 90 take?
The engine-oil capacity is listed as 1.16 quarts. The actual amount you add during a routine drain may vary from this figure, so follow the correct level-check procedure when refilling.
Why does four-stroke engine oil need the right application rating?
Engine oils vary based on their additive packages and friction characteristics. Because 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.
