Was getting ready to pack up for a trip first time out in the new coach. Came home today and noticed hydraulic fluid on the ground in the driveway. Took a look at the hydraulic reservoir and it seemed to be coming from the cap. Is this normal? Driveway does sit on a slight hill.

Park, if thte fluid was coming from the cap you have no problem as this is the vent and overflow. It was probably full to the brim and on a slop came out the vent in the cap. When you check the fluid level, be sure all rooms and jacks are retracted first or it (resevoir) will be overfilled. Good luck on your trip and keep us posted!

Thanks it was coming form the cap. I thought I would ask as this is the first MH I have had with hydraulic slides and jacks.
