2004 60 Series, 14 Liter, EGR delete, no waste gate, noticed transmission shifting different, full throttle to do 60 miles a hour, only getting 3 psi boost, made it to where I was going, fuel filter was ok, all hoses on and could not find any leaks, pulled hose off turbo, intake vanes looked ok, turbo spun smoothly, no vibrations, no play up or down or in and out, ends up the block off plate for the EGR had lost a nut and the other one was loose.
Replaced nut and double nutted jammed nuts together so hopefully will not happen again
Motor does not make boost in neutral, had to brake torque it in gear to check for boost
Drove back to Tampa after the 500 and every thing was back to normal
So zipdee awning appears to be trying to separate from the coach by tearing this fabric that's probably worn beyond its years considering the coach's 32 years old...
So I guess the question is is this a standard type of fabric the person can buy and just re-weave into the system or is their more to the story to getting this replaced repaired..... appears to be separating tearing on both sides ..on the outside edges.
Pictures attached...
My other coach awning was metallically mounted directly to the coach without this fabric....
So this is a new configuration for me..
Greetings all!
Not going to lie, wannabe Newell owner here….
A Newell will be the pinnacle of our full time RV adventure.
We’ve been full time since 2013 in a variety of rigs. Starting in Carriage 5th wheels, moving to 2 DRV 5th wheels towed by a custom Volvo Semi hauler, to our Current 2006 Monaco Dynasty. We’re (I’m) narrowing down the wants and needs list and keeping an eye on the sales sites.
Safe travels and see ya down the road!

I have a customer who is selling his 2000 Prevost Country Coach. I thought that you guys on here might like to look at it, its like a shiny new penny. Best condition coach of this age I have ever seen, immaculate would be the best word to describe it. It has 115k miles on it. Driver seat and interior looks like no one has ever been inside it. Oh and look at the roof, the previous owner (90yo) of this coach would wax the roof. Coach was never washed with water, always detailed. Asking 190k for it. Contact me and I will get you in contact with the owner. [email protected]

The 1977 Wanderlodge has already sold, but I will post it anyways for folks to drool over. This guy bought the best of the best, and his Wanderlodge was very similar to the Prevost.

I have and issue now for 2 years that has prevented me from selling or trading off our Newell as the rear slide will not extend, read all the wires out to the control panel and limit switches all OK other than a compromised wire under the bed. Removed the logic board for slide 2 which is the rear slide and found a few of ground traces fried on the board itself, being a retired electronic tech I started tracing back to where the problem was and found one of the mini relays on the board defective and in the closed position, then found a few diodes open and one of the three 555 timer chip and a NPN transistor defective. Ordered and replaced all these parts and jumped the circuit board traces and still not working so called HWH they said to send it to them which I did in Sept of 2025 they said 4-6 weeks so I told them I would be in Florida after that time frame and not to ship back to me till our return end of March. They called yesterday and informed me that board is no longer available and they don't have one for sale. Does anyone here have one of these boards for sale? Or the entire control box? These boxes are only for Newell and there isn't a replacement. This is not only my problem this is a problem for all late model HWH Newell owners. If I can't find a board here my only choice is to purchase a PLC (personal logic computer) and retrofit it.
Sequence of operation for those who are interested.
Turn on or start coach. When you turn the slide key on there is a delay time (555 timer) so your seal can deflate, then when it illuminates you can start the extend or retract procedure either way the first thing is the locks activation to open after fully open there is a slight delay (555 timer) then the main hydraulic ram under the bed to either in or out and once the limit switch for totally in or out under the bed is made then there is slight delay again activates the locks to lock. Note my locks have NEVER worked in the rear and this unit has been out and sent to HWH prior to my ownership so somehow those limit switch activation has been removed from the sequence of operation.
Does anyone know offhand where the fuses are for power outlets in the bays? I have two outlets that have stopped working, on driver and passenger side of same bay. My coach is 2004 quad slide, front entry. Thanks in advance for any help!
So I’m considering a used Newell and confused as to why the high annual expected maintenance costs. I’ve read the suggested posts on this subject but still haven’t read other owner’s explanations to justify the significant annual costs if they’re built so well with redundancy and craftmanship etc.? Yes, they’re complex machines but even lower quality competitors don’t seem to require this much expense. Apologies in advance for my ignorance but I would really like to know and justify a purchase. I like to study, learn and fix things but don’t want to spend money unwisely. Dtravis, thank you!

Going to look at a 1997 Newell this week in NJ, looks to be coach #460 anything to look out for wondering why it’s been for sale for over a year. Thanks
