  • Leveling Jack Noises

    Hey all. I have a question of concern and I'm not entirely sure if it's a high-priority issue or not. Maybe y'all could help me understand it.

    We've been in our 2021 Momentum 381M-R for about 2 weeks now. Every day as the sun seems to warm one side of the coach, the leveling jacks on that side seem to make "settling" noises and "bump" downward, not enough to re-autolevel, but noticeable. Could this be due to the changing temperature of the hydraulic fluid? Is it from something else?
    Please assume that if I’m asking, I’ve already searched the manual.

    LCI recommends an oil additive to solve this problem. Many have reported that this works. See this thread and the included link to these products.

      This^^. I've added the two quarts of the CAT anti-stiction fluid. We still have some popping, but we've been stationary since adding the fluid and have only run the slides and levelers in and out a few times to mix things up. I'm hoping things will improve when we start moving again this summer. On the other hand, we've gotten so used to it, we hardly notice the popping any more.
