Does the 8v92 have to use the Detroit Diesel specific code reader or is there a modern day replacement to read codes off the ECU? I am looking to get a reader for good measure.

I am trying to determine which service is better. Good Sam or CoachNet. GS is $129 a year and they claim unlimited mileage towing and tire repair/replacement. CN is $249 a year and will tow to nearest facility which is useless for those of us with 2 strokers since many shops will not have the know how to work on them. CN has an optional add on for tire coverage.  What do you all recommend?

This pressure regulator on my coach is leaking (a lot). I don't know what it goes to. (Maybe front slide?) It is located on the driver's side in the basement air compartment. Does anyone know what it goes to, AND what pressure it should be set at?

Thank you,
Alan Johnson

Anybody have suggestions.

I found the wire and plug behind the left side over driver's seat storage cabinet. No idea what it's for.

Also the box attached to the roof above.

Anyone have any ideas?

I have a 2009 with valid slides. When retracting the rear passenger slide it had a judder or shake when it was about 6 -12” from all the way in for the last 2 or 3 times. Yesterday it stopped, almost like it hit something, but on the 3rd attempt it came in. Is this a symptom of a bearing failure?

The original owner for my 2009 Newell declined the Pressure Pro option for the Silverleaf Glass dash over concern of reliability for the rear sensors.
I've always had TPMS, and am looking at the new Pressure Pro Pulse FX design which uses a blue tooth App which allows me to not have another dash monitor.
1. If I am only doing the coach 8 sensors do I need a secondary antenna?
2. The 365 rims have their own hole for the valve stem and the stem doesn't look long enough to be able to attach the sensor. I've had issues with extenders leaking. Has anyone had to deal with this issue on the 365 rim?

We recently sold our 2000 year model coach 571.  Always dumped on the driverside as our building was set up with dump station and it was on driver side.  Never had an issue, hooked the hose up flipped the switch above the connection and it dumped no problem.  Guy that sold the coach to can't get the air dump to release.  I am 3 states away, so can't just go look at it to help diagnose what is causing the problem.  He has disconnected the air to the value and completely dumped the air in the coach and still can't get it to budge.  I know he called Newell and still no luck.  Can't get it in to be looked at until November 1.  

Any suggestions on what to tell him to do would be greatly appreciated.  I did tell them to join Newell Gurus as this website was always helpful for me to find answers when something went wrong.

We've been battling this for a year now, and really can't figure it out  We have a 2015 and the bedroom window is the openable Louvre with emergency exit.

Whenever the outside temp gets below 40, we really feel a chill pouring down onto our heads in bed.  I've looked at sources above the shade and have even stuffed batting into the 3 small access holes.  Didn't help.  You can physically feel the cold air sheeting down.

The other day, I had a conversation with a 2020 owner, who said he's never had a problem even when in sub-0 temps!

The only thing I can think of, is that the R value on our coach is a lot worse than the newer ones.  But, I've not heard any confirmation, and Newell says "gee, it shouldn't happen".

So, maybe some of you have experienced the same, or can at least comment on "why", before I try to figure the next step, like replace the entire window.

Thanks.

Hello,
Just sold our '08 Newmar Kountry Star with 400 Cummins, comfort steer, etc.  Got tired of maintenance issues cause by less than desired workmanship and/or design.  Trying to learn ahead of time (for a change) if upgrading to the custom built Newells would give more road time and less fixin time...  Our budget looks like an '05 to '07 would be doable.   Thanks you in advance for any suggestions - PLEASE!
