Re: 2009 ez go pds
You may want to flush it out or even consider replace the bearings. If the flooded bearings were exposed to water, they may have pitted, or there could have been some grit introduced along with water. How much have you driven it before removing the water? Even the sealed bearings could have been compromised if they remained flooded for an extended period of time.

Re: 2009 ez go pds
Might be a dumb question, but I'll ask anyway. Did you remove the brake drums and inspect everything? Water/debris can rust the heck out of brake drums and shoes.

Re: 2009 ez go pds
That's one of the oldest debates on this forum. I used 90 weight gear oil in my 1998, which probably had some wear and tear. I put about an ounce of STP oil treatment in it.

Re: 2009 ez go pds
Pretty sure you could use vegetable oil if you added enough Lucas oil....
