maintenance

Prior to buying my Duramax I read on a lot of forums, including this one, about how much more expensive diesels are. Constant DEF issues, $100+ oil changes, high price of fuel, etc. I've now owned my truck since November. In that time the price of diesel has been cheaper than or close to the...

Hello! We purchased our first TT last month. I know there are normal, monthly, quarterly, bi-annually, and yearly upkeep for us to do... Are there any good guides, books, websites, logs, ect... That you would recommend to make sure we keep our new baby looking pretty and working well...

Is their a checklist somewhere of maintenance needed for a hybrid and how often you are suppose to do everything? Like waxing, greasing tracks, etc?

We have a 2016 2400s Sunseeker MSB. Can anyone tell me who manufactured the slide so that I can research and find out how to do routine maintenance on it? Thanks.

We purchase an extended warranty when we bought our used coach last June...to maintain the warranty we need to follow the recommended scheduled maintenance from the manufacturer...we are having troubles finding out what that is exactly ...it had 8800 miles on it when we purchased and have put...

I know that we have had a lot of discussion in various posts regarding the best way to maintain batteries, which are the heart of the modern TT or coach. Lots of terms thrown around like equalization and desulfation. I came across this narrative Battery Desulphation and it seems to confirm a...

I have a 2015 Wildwood DLX park model with many large decals on it. I plan to keep it for very many years as it is set up on a permanent site. So many RVs get looking shabby after several years as the decals fade/peel/crack. Has anyone had success in keeping decals in good shape for many...

I am totally new to hybrids. I have a 2016 Rockwood Roo 233S. With 3 bunk ends I'm sure I will have a good amount of maintenance. Aside from: 1- seasoning/wetting the seams. 2- ensuring to store the canvas dry. 3 - general cleaning. Are there waterproofing or other products I should use to...

I have a 2016 Flagstaff Classic Super Lite 832 IKBS purchased new in Jan. I have looked all through my documentation that I got with the unit in Jan and cannot find anything regarding the slide components. I am bringing it out of storage this coming week and will be de-winterizing the unit...

Hello and thank you for taking your time to read my post. I'm sure if I kept searching I might find the answer but I'm just going to ask everyone instead. My 2013 Sunseeker has a fiberglass roof I've noticed a small amount of moisture in the compartment of the upper bond above the driver Seat...

I am considering buying the Ford Premium Maintenance Plan for my 2016 F350 Truck. Does anyone know what the typical 5000 mile maintenance cost is? A 5yr/60K plan costs $3K. That's about $248 per 5000 mile service. Don't usually buy these plans but a couple of people have said it is a good...

I have a 2013 DR SS 3170DS, with a Ford E450. Following our current trip, I would like to get the oil changed, brakes checked, etc. General PM before our next trip. Who does this work for you, RV shops or private truck dealers. As usual, I'm concerned about getting burned, by a vendor I...

After installing my Trimetric I now probably know too much about my batteries. I have 4 Group 27 12 volt batteries, a PD9270 converter and two inverters. One is a dedicated unit for the residential reefer and is a 2000 watt Xantrex and the second is a 1000 watt Xantrex that I installed with an...

I had an idea while cleaning the bugs off the front of my class C nose (not hood). Why not have someone install a clear bra on it! Has anyone tried this? Was it expensive? I'm hoping that cleaning would be much easier, and waxing would be a thing of the past.

DH and I are planning to keep our 2015 Windjammer for several years. We had an old Mallard TT for 13 years and I think we treated that rubber roof maybe twice but it never leaked. So what really needs to be done for maintenance on the newer roofs. We don't climb up there ourselves ( bad knees...

Okay. We bought our first Motor home (2005 Forester) last month and we took it out one weekend before putting it in storage. While we were camping we had a winter storm come through and we got some really cold temperatures and about 5 inches of snow. Now that it's in storage I'm wondering about...

Just took possession of a 2013 3170DS, since the roof is fiberglass is there any PM needed year to year? Thanks...

Hi everyone, I'm a new owner - will be picking up my Hurricane 31S next week and driving to Florida from home in New Jersey. I've been watching youtubes on winterizing for when we come home from Florida in January. I'd appreciate any tips or information or knowledge that anyone's picked up...

I am just Winterizing for the second time. I follow the instruction, and the pump sucks the antifreeze in, the cold taps soon show the red coloured antifreeze, but the hot taps do not have any flow. I can't recall this happening last year. Any ideas? John

We are finishing up our 2015 camping season and in need of completing some repairs to our 2006 Rockwood HW256 pup. Most maintenance items are due to age/wear and not that difficult, just takes time I'm personally short on right now. I've never taken my pup (purchased used 2013), to a dealer for...

I've got a 2012 Sunseeker 2900, it doesn't have the black tank flush feature I've heard so much about, and wanting to learn as much as I can about maintaining my mh I set out on the interwebs to find out how to clean my tanks. I stumbled upon the "geo-method"...

I have a 2013 Solera and the slide out was jerking while moving in and out. I checked out the rollers on the outside underneath the slide out and there was black sticky junk on part of them. I cleaned it off but the slide still makes a jerky motion when sliding. Do I need to lubricate these...

Hi all, Can't recall if this is even mentioned in the manual, but I've been draining the water heater and low point drains after each trip. Question: Is it better to leave the annod plug out till next trip , and should I be rinsing the tank after each use ? Like to do whatever will increase...

I've got the RoadMaster "all terrain" unit. Anyone know what kind of maintenance there things need. I'm now at three years of use and other than cleaning it, I've done nothing. Are there parts that wear out?? I know that you guys that go to lots of rallies, probably have spoken to RM reps...
