My sister has an 06 X-2 and it seems the ballast is just sucking air now. I can hear it run but it is not filling up. Anyone out there have some tips for what i can look for to fix the issue?

check the impellar in the ballast pumps and have the dealer get you the new types if you guys have the old ones. They had probs with impellars a few years back. If left on and run dry when draining they burn up easy. Good Luck

Make sure you get the yellow impellers. They are cheap, so get extras to keep on board. Easy to install yourself. 06's came with the black ones, we switched to the yellows and have had no problems.

x2fanatic, how cheap can you get the yellow ones for? They were $19 a piece over here at MC of Arizona and now they raised the price to $28 a piece.
