Guide Ring Question
Am I able to see if the guide ring on the motor of my CC is shot or is it one of those things you replace and hope it fixes the problem?

Re: Guide Ring Question
The guide ring is a ring that goes on the inside of the motor shaft with the splines on it. The cart is my 99 DS that was for sale but I pulled it off the market because it is making a horrendous noise from the rear end.

Re: Guide Ring Question
As cheap as one is and as easy as one is to replace, I'd just put one in and see if it fixes the noise. Is the noise during acceleration, or just when maintaining speed and letting off the go pedal?

Re: Guide Ring Question
It's an "all the time" noise. I am hoping it is just this $5 part and not brushes or a transaxle issue.

Re: Guide Ring Question
In my experience, the noise caused by the guide ring is usually on deceleration or when at a constant speed. For around $5 though, it wouldn't hurt to be sure.
