New Power Gear Hyd Jack Pump

This is a question for those of you with a fairly new coach that has the Power Gear Leveling system. Just had my Hydraulic pump replaced on my 2017 Storm by the dealer. The new pump makes a different noise than the old which by itself doesn't mean much but is a data point. So my question is, when you run the system on "Auto" does it seem to be a fast and jerky event to get to level? My old pump would be a slow process ending with the coach level and the majority of the wheels on the ground. Now it runs fast jerking the coach left and right until it finds level but all six wheels are off the ground. Curious as to how other coaches run in auto. Thanks.

I had a similar issue. I called Power Gear and spoke to a support person.
They had me recalibrate the system, and also sent me PDF's of the procedures they took me through. They don't ask for any warranty information or anything.
