Last night about 3am we had a huge storm and although we leaned the coach over toward the driver side so the rain would slide off rather than pooling up.  Apparently we had some leaves stuck in the bladder and this caused water to seep in.

Gang,

Every since I have owned my '03 coach, I have had rain water in the electric reel bay.  (Under Number 2 slide).  Newell has worked on it and improved the water situation, but I am still seeing a fair amount of water.

I have always believed the water was coming from the slide seal.  But since we cannot see any problem with that ... i am thinking that water may be coming from the joint between the coach body and the rear cap.  Is that even a thing? 

I have never been on top of my coach so I don't even know what it looks like.  Simple minded me is thinking about getting some of that Sika Tape and run across the seam on the top.

So, have you found and fixed a leak in the rear of the coach?  I would love to hear the story.

Cheers,
bill

I have my new Michelin tires installed and now I am wondering about a Tire Pressure Monitoring System.
I check my tire pressure before I leave and this has worked to date but the tread separation I just experienced makes me curious about a TPMS.
After reading what I can find I am still curious about the manufacturers and could use some advice from those with experience.
thanks in advance!

Looks like a neat tool to have around.  No more filing threads down with a small file.

Newell has moved their motorcoach production into their new facilities!!  The new production facility allows coaches to pull forward to the next production station without  retracting the slides or driving around the campus.  There is an in-line water testing station to allow water intrusion tests without having to drive the coach to the wash bay.  High volume fans have been added throughout the facility and HVAC has been added to the cabinet shop.  There is now a dedicated delivery bay for taking delivery of your new coach in a climate controlled environment.
