I have not got it out. I have tried everything but a very high end machinists drill bit and last resort will be using a welding rod and hoping it sticks enough without damaging the soft aluminum wall

So what are we suppose to do to fix our problem once we get it out? Does anybody know?

update! ok i got mine out like the video, then i have a couple of machinst buddies i asked for there input on how to shave the oem dowel down from .800 mm to around .793 mm because i would like a little more oil psi than 4 psi on idling, and what we did was put it in a drill with about 3/4 of it sticking out used 600 grit sand paper and spun the drill till it measured .793 mm and flipped it in the drill and did it again to the other side. and the results after installing everything were 18 psi idling and around 60-62 psi wide open throttle with the engine warmer up for about 20 minutes of riding. im very satisfited with my results and will let you know the longevity of this fix, once again thanks for all the help ad input this site is amazing, thanks again

I have a buddy with a 2018 900xp i think it's doing the same thing. Does anybody know if the oil pressure relief valve are the same designs as the 800s and 900s? Thanks

Mose, never heard of it happening to a 900 ...........0r a 700 for that matter.Only the 800's.

I’m there but now what?? I see it but haven’t decided how to attack yet View attachment 129947

Mine is stuck stuck so bad the shop who build it left it in and built the engine twice for me blowing up right away each time then stripped the engine completely apart behind my back lol
So this is in the closed position I’m assuming??

All the way in or down in the bore is the closed position

Best thing I found is to just use a head stud dowel for a small block Chevy. It is a standard size instead of metric and is a few thousand smaller than the Polaris dowel so it goes up and down the bore freely and completely eliminates the. Sticking issue. I never really loved the ball bearing set up even though it worked OK never gave very good oil pressure at idle.
