  1. @jd1923Yes Sir, the app displays pressure and temperature. I really like the Dill system but I want to do away with the windshield display. I’ve been studying the internet and my truck’s RPO codes trying to come up with a way to display the trailer sensor feedback on my 2019 (built August 2018) Duramax Infotainment System. I have the I06 radio and the Z82 towing package but I don’t have the additional RPO’s to do what I want to do. Some information online says that you can’t add the stuff I need but I’ve come across discussions in forums that say that you can add add stuff after production.
  2. Is anyone using the new Dill Bluetooth TPMS? If so, how do you like it? I’ve been using a Dill TPMS since early 2019 and I really like it. I don’t want a system that uses externally mounted sensors on the valve stems. It’s time to replace the sensors mounted inside the tire and I see that Dill has a new Bluetooth version available without the dash or windshield mounted display. https://www.dillvalves.com/product_cpt/1604-v-bluetooth-aftermarket-tpms/
  3. Pulled about 1000 miles with the Rockstar Commercial Tow Flap. I’m pleased with it so far. I’ll post a better picture later.
  4. The wire wrapped around the axle is probably the bead wire. I worked in radial passenger and light truck tire manufacturing for 32 years.
  5. Has anyone tried to use 4 year old Dicor butyl tape BT-1834-1? Does it dry out or get brittle? It has never been out of the plastic bag it came in. Website tech specs say 18 months - 2 year shelf life. @SeaDawgI know that you use butyl tape. What has been your experience? Thanks, Bill
  6. Oliver Technical Support says Oliver is not using a combination smoke / carbon monoxide detector now. Only using a smoke detector First Alert SMI100RV. https://www.firstalert.com/products/rv-approved-battery-operated-smoke-alarm
  7. First Alert says they aren’t making the model currently in my Oliver. The model in my Oliver is an SCO5RVA. It is nearing end of life. SCO5RVAs are still available online but I suspect they are NOS (New Old Stock) which means they are already a few years old. I don’t want to buy a NOS unit that could be already nearing end of life. That’s why I want to know what detectors Oliver is putting in the newer trailers. If I did find an SCO5RVA on the shelf I would look at the mfg. date before I bought it. I got bit on an LP/CO detector that I bought online from a reputable RV Supply house a few years ago. It had been made the same year as the one I was replacing. https://support.firstalert.com/s/article/rv-smoke-co
  8. What smoke/CO detector is Oliver using in the 2025 & 2026 models. Note that I’m not asking about the LP/CO detector under the dinette. Thanks Bill
  9. @FloraFauna Thank you for the feedback. That is the exact product and application that I was looking for feedback on.
  10. @HDRider Do you have the “Commercial” model or the (non-commercial?) model?
  11. Anyone using a Rockstar Commercial full width behind the axle tow flap with cutout for diesel exhaust? What truck do you have it on and does it work well? I’m not interested in any other brand or style. Bill
  12. I’ve not read the entire thread. @BoondockingAirstream when you apply the brakes in the tow vehicle do the brake lights light up on the rear of the Oliver? Bill.
  13. I can stand on the platform, lean on the handrail, and reach the center of the roof. Doubles as stairs to mezzanine in shop.
  14. Have you added more fresh water to the tank since you noticed the drip? If you suspect that the fresh water inlet check valve located under the basement floor is not seating you might try adding fresh water to see if it flushes out debris before you replace the check valve.
  15. Do you move your trailer or is it set up in a semi permanent location? The reason I ask is it seems like I read one time that you were a campground host. If you are set up semi permanent you might consider using a wand and washing the bottom side of the top (inside) of your black tank to remove anything growing there that might be creating a smell. I have done this without making a mess by stretching a piece of clear plastic over the rim and sticking a flush wand through a small hole poked in the center of the plastic. I used the water wand out of this set and “flushed the s..t” out of it. https://www.jbtools.com/lisle-radiator-genie-water-air-cleaning-wand-88500/?wi=off&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADsRHpMRXm-qFPZ7YImI7C72eLsmp&gclid=Cj0KCQjwlvW2BhDyARIsADnIe-J2zOxhEo0lRORzmKQs5As-Ci31ib8zUwlffYUqKpuoGVDvXd0Air8aArl6EALw_wcB
