That’s impressive speed. Wow.

Sam, while they’re working on the bus. Be sure to replace the differential vent at your convenience. With our extreme altitude changes in the Rockies, this item seems to be the biggest culprit in our experience helping with axle seal demise.

In a no slides coach the only area where you could set this up is in the forward living area. It would kill you floor space aka walking area. So everybody would have to go to bed at the same time and going to the head at night would become an adventure.
You would be better off, buying a tent and put the beds in there. Or, better yet, give family visitors the name of a nearby hotel.

Thank you, all.
I will pass on the advice.
He will look for 12r22.5 in 18 ply if he can find them.

Mine had a 13 psi cap in bad shape, replaced it with the same thing, a Stant 10329 Lev-R-Vent Radiator Cap, 13 psi. $6.19 on Amazon.

The bearings look good. They are out and look fine. But, there was literally oil everywhere in the wheel well, and all over everything. It was dripping down off the big mud flap behind the drive tires. The brake pads are totally saturated.
I will try to take some pictures to post next time I am at the shop. Kim found us a real nice, brand new place to stay, about 10 miles away.
I presume that we were leaking for around 900 miles, and it got steadily worse as we drove. There was no leak on the floor in our garage when we left home. We feel fortunate that we didn’t lose our brakes, and fortunate that we have had no “on the road problems” like this in 7 years and about 50K miles of driving. We keep up with all maintenance to the max (we still use Jon’s maintenance sheet of recommendations, and our mechanic stays on top of it regularly). We even had all our airbags replaced before we hit the road this time, too.
Sometimes, poop happens, in spite of our best efforts!

The certificate did expire and our web guy renewed it and everything is back to normal. However to get everything to work, such as coaches for sale I had to jump through a few hoops that I cannot explain.
There is still something funky and we are addressing them but I do know different browsers have caused me to do different things to get everything working as it should.

We’re in

One more pano of the campground…

We met Buddy back at the ‘Know your Prevost’ at the October 2015 Seminar. He had an older bus then.
Then, this past October, while were were having service at the ETLC Spa, we saw Buddy’s ‘new’ Marathon! He was polishing it from stem to stern. Beautiful bus!
Congrats Andre and Ann!
Buddy, enjoy life’s next chapter!

If the X brace came loose how could you reattach back to radiator, If you were careful could you drill a hole right in the middle of the X brace where they intersect fish a small stainless screw, small in diameter but long enough to go all the way through the radiator and put a fender washer on the front of radiator for strength, as to be careful to miss tubes in radiator??

Art and Teri,
We’ve stayed at the Mission Bay RV resort about 4 times over the last several years (not in the Prevost yet).
It is very close to the city and has great bay views. There is an excellent bike/walking trail if you like that kind of stuff. The RV Park is just north of Sea World.
The spaces are a little tight but you just can’t beat the location.
Good luck and have fun in San Diego! (one of my favorite cities)

This will be the fourth coach I’ve used the Progressive HW50C in. One time I had a failure (Relay quit). I can recall 3 times where it saved my coach from issues at the pole. I’m sure the pole mounted unit is good too, but I like the remote read-out in the coach.

I have an H3-45 and chased a leaked for a few weeks. I purchased a new rubber seal for the door but before installing I found that the marker lights on the door were actually leaking. Put caulk behind the light and I solved the problem. Some have said the mirror has been a cause for a leak in the first bay.

Heck, one of the pluses of my move a few years ago is to be just over an hour from ETLC.
I’ll be there Monday around lunch… See you there!
