Creeping slider

OK, here's the problem! Went down to where I store the Monte today and found the bedroom slider on our 2980 out AGAIN about 4" all the way around! Any ideas as to why! This happened after it started to warm up here in Nebraska and I pulled it back in but now it did it again! Thought it was the warming of the hydraulic fluid but apparently it is not! I don't see any leaks anywhere so can't figure this one out! Any ideas troops!!???!!! Possible seal leak in the ram or whatever??

It could be caused by a bad check valve in the hydraulic pump. That's what happened to ours when the rig was six years old. Had the pump replaced under extended warranty minus $50 deductible.

Also check fluid level in hydraulic tank next to pump. Full level is 1-2" from top with the slides in. If low fill it up with ATF and cycle the slides in a out a couple of times.
