I just bought the Crew P yesterday and got it home and barely got it off trailer. It wouldn’t go in gear. Very hard to move, then it’s easy then it won’t move again. Anyone else experience this and know how to fix? Any help greatly appreciated?

I dont even know if the UT10 has the same brakes as my Villain. But again, a new car has to 'seat' the brakes and wear-in the pads/disks a little. Plus, if its been sitting a bit, they'll get some oxidation that'll need to rub away. I dont have any brake squeak, but then again, I hardly ever touch the brakes since I usually try to use the engine braking, and rarely go into free-wheel mode. Otherwise if it continues to squeak, just spray some brake cleaner on the disk and then scuff it with some 120 grit sandpaper or something. I mean, if its a true grinding squeal, keep an eye on the disks. Watch for grooves. If you get a serious groove going then something is wrong with the pad or some kind of rock got stuck in there.

Well your belt isnt broken in yet. My Villain was sticky like that at first. The CVTech clutches are fantastic but not ultra smooth shifting sometimes. What I do if it wants to be sticky is just shift way past where I'm aiming and then come back. So if it wont go from L to H, I slam it back to R and then forward to H again. No problem. Most belt drive cars or quads will bind more when on a slope. I know people with newer CF Motos were displeased when they didnt include a parking brake on the trail model-- They were getting totally stuck on hills because they couldn't shift at all (They were under pressure in P). Those machines got recalled and a parking brake was added, I think.
