Class C Maintenance (Engine)
I just left from having a 5th Wheel to a Class C. My rig is only 3 months old brand new. Looking at the maintenance book, as usual it says to do certain maintenance every 3, 6 and 12 months. Ho...

Thanks for all of the replies. I'll just check the oil after 6 months and see what it looks like and take it for there..
Aside from the oil, I have one more item you might want to check. I believe we have the same MH. A 2014 Itasca Spirit 31K. I bought mine last March and it was built in Jan. Over the last few months, I noticed the main floor by the kitchen sink was sagging. The area that is sagging has increased with time. I brought it to a local RV repair shop who quickly found out the problem was a lack of any floor support between the frame rails between the sink and dinette area. It's actually about a 6' span with no support. Itasca was called by the shop, and they are aware of the problem. They were unwilling to let this shop (10 min from my house) do the repair and want me to bring it to the dealer I bought it from, who was 1 hour from my house when I bought the unit, but has since moved and is now over 100 miles and 2 hours from the house.
Another issue is my service adviser at this dealer has been blowing me off for almost a month, and doesn't seem interested in helping me. Of course Itasca doesn't care that I don't want that dealer to touch it anyway.Among other issues they've "fixed" a leaking skylight twice, and I just noticed yesterday it's leaking again.
Perhaps they corrected their engineering screw up by the time yours was built, but if not it's better to find out now than later.
All you have to do is crawl under the coach and see if there are any supports running between the E450 frame rails in that main walkway area.
