Hydraulic Jacks Popping Sound

I have a 2013 3582RL. After owning this for about two years, (bought it new), the hydraulic jacks make a random popping sound like they are slipping maybe a thousandth or two each time it happens. Really annoying when you're trying to get to sleep. I have timed it, but it can go from 2-10 minutes, no specific pattern and no specific jack. This model has the 6 jack system. Any ideas?

Normal problem get a quart of Cat oil treatment. Or do a search on here there are lots of people with the same problem and the fix for the problem.

Lippert manual available on line if you did not get one with your rig has detailed instructions on how to add antisiction fluid.

This is a common problem. Do a Search on "stiction" and you will find a number of discussions. The bottom line for all of them is to follow the instructions in the Lippert Bulletin for this problem,
