slides

What causes the slides to creep out gradually while sitting or driving down the road?

I read that on a earlier post that air in the lines and the remidy was to open and cloes the slides and make sure there is fluid in the resavor 1/2 inch from the top when all slides are in.

We are having the same problem with ours. Tried the fix to get rid of air in the system and are still having the problem. We have tiny air bubbles in the reservoir and after we put the slides in, and we get a "popping" sound from the rig and you can feel it through the frame and hydraulic cylinders. This leads me to believe there is a leak in the pump or air is getting in to the system somehow. The slides won't start drifting until about 3-4 hours after putting them back in. Fortunately we are still under warranty and will have it looked at the end of this month.
