Earlier this Fall my front gray started leaking. Without the time or place to do the work myself, it went to the shop. Crack was 2/3s the way up one of the corners. After removal of the underbelly and during the leak test, they could see the cracks grow in size, the more full the tank got. In the end? $1,600 and I was camping again ... until a tire blew and now back in shop for repairs and major overhaul of suspension and addition of 3" subframe.
I suspect that's my problem, too. The fuller the tank got, the worse the leak. The last day I did a load of dishes and washed all the pots and pans. It wasn't until after that the leak got really bad. There's an overflow for the gray water one the outside of the RV. It never had any water coming out.
I need to get a new awning and a couple of the plumbing vent caps need to be replaced. It may be an expensive trip.
Don't think just because the leak gets worse when full its an issue with vent or a crack located up high.
Mine was leaking the same way, the higher the level the more it leaked, when I made a cut in the underbelly to see what was going on I found the leak at the union of the tank and 3" drain on the bottom. When I looked at the crack I could not even see it when empty but as I put more water in the tank the crack got larger and it started to leak.
