My old traveling buddy called Lippert about another matter, and while he was talking to them, he asked them about what oil to use.
They recommended Dexron II or III. They said that the synthetic oil will make the slide come in quicker in cold weather.
They also recommended that the oil in the resivour be changed every 36 months. This is the 1st that I have heard about a regular oil change, but I think I will do it since I need to add oil anyway.
I think I can take a 2 or 3ft piece of 1/4 hose that is easily obtained at an auto parts house, or the hose for a windshield washer and siphon it out without too much trouble. If I can get most of it out of the resivour, then the rest won't matter. Adding the synthetic Dexron makes sense, and so does the oil change after 6 years. Mine's an 05 too.
