Polaris RZR 1000 Engine Rebuild Service (2014–2016 XP & Non-XP)
If your RZR 1000 has lost its edge—less pull, rough idle, or noticeable engine noise—it’s usually a sign that internal wear is catching up. Waiting it out only makes it worse. A full rebuild gets everything back in line so the engine responds the way it should.
At REV6, we tear the engine down completely and rebuild it with corrected clearances, proper sealing, and refreshed components. The result is an engine that runs smoother, pulls harder, and holds up over time.

Built, Then Checked Again
Each engine is assembled by one technician and inspected by another before it ships. That second inspection helps catch anything that doesn’t meet spec before it becomes a problem.
With decades of combined experience, our team builds engines that stay consistent ride after ride.
Warranty Coverage
Every engine includes a 1-year warranty. If you want extra coverage, a 2-year no-fault option is available for added peace of mind.
Review full details on our warranty policy.
Core Program
Send in your engine core or use the refundable $1500 core option. Once your core passes inspection, the deposit is returned.
If you need your engine first, ask about our exchange options and we’ll help you set it up.
Looking for Parts Instead?
If you’re not replacing the full engine, you can find transmissions, cylinders, and top or bottom end components in our
Polaris RZR 1000 parts catalog.
If you’re unsure which route makes sense, contact our team and we’ll point you in the right direction.
Before You Hit the Throttle
Proper break-in helps everything seat correctly and prevents early wear.
