I have a 2002 Speed. I last rode it about 2 weeks ago with no problems at all. Its been sitting in the garage since then. I went into the garage today and I found an oil and water puddle underneath it (there was a piece of plastic under it). I don't have any idea of when it leaked. There was a major temp change here from the 60's to the 20's in like a day. I don't know if that would cause anything. But I have my Raptor and a PW 50 in there as well and nothing under them. I haven't had a chance to check where it is leaking yet because I have to go to work. Any ideas would be great. I love the quad but I haven't had a major repair yet. And I don't want to.

Is the water puddle coolant?

water and 20 deg. is not a good sign. did it have some sort of anti freeze in???? You need to check which fluid levels are low. also if you haven't moved the quad, let us know where the puddles are (front or rear of the engine and left or right side) also if you have a skid plate, does it look like the oil came across it?

It appears to be comin from the airbox. Took the front cover off of it and there is oil and water in there on everything underneath it (radiator battery etc.). I had topped everything off before my ride and now everything is a little low. Its weird because I didn't notice any leaking when I was riding or loading it in the back of my truck (looked for signs of leaking in the bed and found none) or when I parked it in the garage. Then 2 weeks later a big puddle. Very mysterious.
