Really don't know without seeing the engine profile off the EMM. This is what would allow a tech to make a diagnostic.
Sorry to hear William. What oil were you running XD-30, 50 100? Just curious. I am in my first 2 hrs and had it programmed for 100.

If his running Ram oil, it's XD-50.
Knowing that one side of the motor burned up, It can't be the oil, it's gotta be something wrong with the oiling system.

I have an 05 225 HO and when it runs it great, but I am on my third powerhead. The first lasted 25 hrs and number 2 piston broke factory said it was an oiling problem. "Second one lasted 65 hrs and this time it was number 6 piston that broke in pieces factory said it was a timing problem. Just finished breaking in this powerhead and I am hoping this is the one that will last. My dealer is giving me no confidence that it will.
Bombardier has been great replaced within a 10 days a fully dressed powerhead no problems. I am concerned what will happen when the warranty runs out.. just the powerhead is $8600.00 plus labor to replace..

USING THE XD 50 OIL. MY QUESTION IS, WHEN YOU REPLACE THE POWER HEAD DOES THIS CHANGE THE EXPERATION DATE OF YOU WARRANTY
I have one of the early 225 ho e-tecs(April 2005) other then map upgrades & change plugs,no problems what so ever.Great engine!
It is a great engine, both failures came after I took it back to the dealer to change over to XD-100 oil. Tell me about the map changes??

Knock on wood, my 225HO has run XD100 from the very first start of the engine and has 65+hrs on it now...It sucks that you are having trouble with yours, but nice to see BRP standing behind it with no problems.
"USING THE XD 50 OIL. MY QUESTION IS, WHEN YOU REPLACE THE POWER HEAD DOES THIS CHANGE THE EXPERATION DATE OF YOU WARRANTY"
I do not believe the warranty starts over with the new power head. However, ask the folks at the hot line. When My 150 E-TEC blew the second power head, I asked for and had the warranty extended for the date of the third power head install.
BTW - did either of you hear the motor start making a clicking sound just before it blew.
Like a valve lifter tapping on a cold morning in an old Chevy V8. That's what mine did both times. Never did find out why mine blew. Got about 35 hours on PH #3 now and running fine.
From experience, BRP will take care of you.
Picked up my boat today. New powerhead installed. Was told I need to break-in now. Thanks ETech. Was concerned when it blew, being a former Mercury man but Etech replaced the head at no cost.
I don't recall my motor making any noise. It just started slowing down. When I shut it down it was hard to restart. Got it started, shut it back down.
Hopefully this will fix me up for the long run.
Thanks ETech.
