The molding piece right behind the driver door was coming loose so I unscrewed the little screw holding it in place.  The molding was very loose and I noticed that several of the large pop-rivets that hold the molding on were sheared.  I slid the molding off since I didn’t want it falling off going down the road.  So now I’m to the point of wanting to put the molding back on and am in a quandary.  I called Newell and they said i would need to remove the engine bay cover at the rear of the coach and slide the LONG piece of molding out and then put the the other in.  Well this made sense until I tried it.  Seems there is an aluminum trim/stop in the end of the short molding that makes it impossible to push over the plastic clips that hold the molding on.  Any ideas?  Do I have to remove the main cabin door to get the piece to go on?

Well we bought a coach a few months ago, but it wasn't a Newell.  We did purchase a 2005 Blue Bird M450. The biggest decision was the location of the galley on the drivers side, passenger side dinette, plus full use of the coach with all the slides in.  I will continue to hang around to see what is going on.
Thank you all for the information you provided us.

Hello all! We are looking to purchase a Newell in the year range 2007-2011. The coach must have Allison automatic transmission, street side galley, prefer 1.5 bath but not a deal breaker, lower the miles the better. Lots of research has been done and we are ready to purchase now, cash buyers. Looking for a coach not listed on the traditional sites and would prefer to speak with the owner vs a dealer. Will travel anywhere. Please send me a PM for my phone number. 
Thank you

I had the brake splitter valve replaced a few weeks ago along with getting a new solenoid for the dump valves and now all my air systems are working great and all systems are holding air pretty well!   My normal routine since buying this coach has been to let the 110v compressor run the air up to about 110psi and then use the leveling system to fully raise the coach.  This has worked for several years with no problems (I know not to let the air run too long so as to not damage the air bags).  
Planning to head home from Virginia (mandatory work from home now) so have everything ready and coach is running great (and looks good too).  The rear drive/tag raised perfectly but the front is refusing to budge, it looks like the bags are all the way down.  I drove the coach a few weeks ago and as I recall (which is always iffy), the front was in the correct travel position.  Is there a solenoid/valve somewhere I can check for this or is this part of the six-pack at the rear of the coach?  I’ve never really had air problems until the past couple of months when i started fixing them (amazing how that works, huh?)... 
I’ve called Newell and Tommy is supposed to return the call but thought you guys might have an idea... 
Thanks in advance!

we recently purchased a 2012 Newell from the factory since they are only about 60 miles from us, we traded in our 2006 Monaco and couldn't be happier. I have several questions since the units do not come with an owners manual and I think the guys are getting tired of me calling them all the time (great service team at Newell). so how do I post a question on operating the coach and the do's and dont's

I recently learned of this fire suppression system. Does anyone have thoughts or possibly experience with Blazecut?

Ok this is really weird to me at least, lets just say I was doing what comes natural and after sitting down I get this really warm sensation on my back side! I'm thinking ok I know Ive been working hard today but not hard enough for my back end to be this warm. What gives all of a sudden and why is there really warm water in my bowl??

Gurus,

Many of you have met my white boxer (Roro).   Sadly, she has co-piloted her last trip.   She died peacefully Friday after a short illness.  She was a joyous dog and reveled in meeting people and bossing her brother around.

She loved to ride in the coach where she knew there would be a fun adventure wherever we stopped.  

She was especially fond of visiting the Entrekin's where she got to go on unleashed hikes, supervise the boys in the shop and take long luxurious naps.     

Although we are heartbroken to see her go, we are grateful to have known this sweet pup.  

RIP Roro.

Hey All,

Sometime in the last few weeks, the water temperature gauge on my dash has stopped reporting any value.  I'm pretty sure the problem is on the sender end, but I don't know how to find it on my Powertech (Kubota) PT20SI.

Does anyone know where to look?

I do know where the overtemp switch is on my unit, and it has two wires coming off of it for some reason.  But, I don't know if it doubles as the sender.  The way it's described online ("Kubota 03 Sender" is the name), I don't think it does.

Thanks!
