    Took our new 308 bhts for our shakedown run, couple issues

    Well we love our new trailer, however i have had a couple issues.

    4 leaks at the docking staion, all loose fitings that i fixed

    Shower glass door bottom wasnt sealed correctly so it leaks water out (not fixed yet)

    Shower drain leak, due to the drain being loose (fixed so far)

    One of the grey tranks valves apprently leaks or doesnt fully close, not sure which one (luckly i slowly recover the cap)

    Water heater has a Loud high pitch noise when its heating, or re heating the water, did this in gas and electric mode, (have video) turns on and off with the switch

    Finally i found a hole about the diamater of a penny in my awning that i apprently missed during my pdi

    And sort of one, my bunk house slide seems to "work harder" to move in certain spots, not sure if that will loosen up. My dealer said that was "normal"

    Despite having a few issues we are so far super happy on how nice and confy it is.

    Janice,

    Called and left messege with the phone number you gave me. I just put the rv under my cover and when I did I had to un level it from its normal parking spot and when I did. Water drained out from the underfloor, I would say about a half gallon of fresh water poured out above the sewer connection, I got some on me and it was absent of any smell so I assume it's a underneath fresh water leak to add to my list.

    Should I unscrew some of the under covering stuff to let it breath until it gets fixed?

    Yes, i would. Does your 308 have the KantLeak valve ? It's a well documented issue that many of us here have dealt with.
