as forest says, the corner issue is from the ripple in the air seal for the slide. virtually all coaches have it to some extent and the silicone is what newell does.
the other thing to remember is we are talking about a 20 year old coach. i agree on fluid samples as an indicator for a buyer. but sometimes that isnt possible so you do your best.
my 02 has plenty of things that can be picked apart by someone doing an inspection like it was a new coach. steve bare taught me the rule on it. 5 foot rule....stand back 5 feet and see if it still bothers you if so.....10 foot rule. stand back ten feet and still if it still bothers you. ha one mine i need more distance in some cases.....
we all want the perfect condition coach. you end up getting and keeping the one you think is perfect enough for you and do your best to improve what you can., important thing is to use it and love it.
