Ben,

Another place that allows water to get back into your cabinets is around the awning wiring that enters through the wall of the coach.  A lot of water can get in through that little opening if not properly sealed.  Newell had to fix that problem on mine under warranty as well as other water leak areas - long story and expensive fixes but they fixed them all under warranty and she is tight with no leaks now.

Some statements you made about a "plastic L clip"  and that it is "denting the trim" concern me.  Mine are all steel L brackets that have a tapered end that is quite sharp.  That end slides into a steel channel in the upper wall that makes sure your slide top is secure and the correct distance to the upper wall.  If your trim is getting dented it sounds like it might be out of adjustment and it may be letting your slide top bow down as Richard was mentioning.  Make sure Newell looks at that too and gets it fixed if needed before your warranty runs out.

Good luck,
Oscar
