The snap ring breaking is common, its a manufacturing error. Yamaha has improved the design on the replacment clutches, but the failure is very common.
It was mentioned about the secondary clutch washer getting loose, this is a know issue in the repair industry since 2007. Its a 1 time fix if the tech knows what to look for in the first service of the cart, issue becomes most dont check it and that allows it to go to failure. But in reality its a 2 minute fix. Its only after it has gone to failure a few times that it starts to ruin other parts and then it just snow balls from there.
