Wow! This is why you need to see a coach in person. The ad describes the coach as #682 and also #649. I believe #649 because pics look like those in another post about 2005 and 2003 dual mid entry coaches......but who knows. Nice floorplan and the dual entry is cool but I'm looking for a 2005 or 2006.

I'd love to hear about its condition if someone happens to go check it out.

Michael, maybe you recognize this as #649, or...... is there yet another of these, numbered #682......Enquiring minds need to know!

Towing a new Rubicon Jeep doesn't go well when transfer case is left in 4-L and transmission is left in 1st gear. Video is enlightening.

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to update everyone that we sold our coach 606 so we are now down to only 1 Newell (1242). It was tough to let it go but we have no business owning to coaches and it went to a great owner out of Vegas area.

Hello Everyone,

Just like title says.  My black/gray tank is showing 100% full when completely empty. I've disconnected the sensor on the side of the tank thinking maybe it was just a bad connection but its still showing full.  I also filled it up couple times w water and emptied it thinking that might help. no luck so far.  Anyone else have any thoughts on something i could attempt?  its not an urgent matter as run my fresh water tank empty and know its time to dump my tank.  Thanks in advance!

Matt

Hey everyone,  

I'm needing to replace a couple of my light housings that have gotten water in them.  They are the oval exterior lights that are used to light up the right and left side of the coach.  I know Newell could get them but wanted to see if anyone has got them outside of Newell and might have a part number.

Does anyone know the part number or where I can purchase the oval exterior light for my 2008 coach?

Hello Everyone,

I’m having issue w my black/gray tank showing 100% full but it’s bone dry.  Also, I’m also not able to open or close the valves to open. I removed the connection to sensor on tank to make sure it was making good contact but that didn’t help. It too big consequence for both sensor and buttons to open close valves to all stop working together so makes me think something that controls both is giving me the issue. Any suggestion before calling Newell? I also filled the black/gray tanks 1/2 full and drove around thinking that may help but nothing changed.

Besides ordering from Newell does anyone know where I can find the oval exterior lights on my 2008 coach?

Gurus,

A while ago I noticed water stains that seemed to be coming from the corner of my shower (where the valve is).  My thought that was 1) a roof leak that happened to show up in the shower....or 2) A leak from the valve.

This post is to document what the Grohe shower valve looks like and to help the next guy when he has a leak.

The only way to figure this out was to start taking the valve apart.  (I was hoping to be able to snake a camera in behind the valve to see what was happening).  
   

When I got the valve apart it was clear that water was coming from one of the shut off valves which I tried to remove....but I could not get the screw loose.  I decided to remove the entire corian plate from the front of the corner.  It is held on by silicone sealant.  I gently worked a razor blade around the plate and then used a small putty knife around the edge.   Eventually it came loose.   
   

This allowed me to remove the valve body.  You can see the screw that would not come out (second from left).   Once the valve was out the screw came out easily.  
   

If you look at the valve body you can see a screws on the left and right of the tempering valve (center).  Removing the screws exposes the two stop valves.
   
   
   

These stop valves have 5 separate “O”rings.  Rather than trying to source the exact rings, I opted to buy new valves.  I used Zoro.com.   Thank you to @"Rongripon" for this posting the part number (08 355 00M T01) on this Post.

While I had the valve out, I cleaned up with vinegar / water / scrubby pads.
   

I will update when it all goes back together.

   

Cheers,
Bill
