I have it in shop now and wondered if anyone else has seen oil collecting under radiator support beam passenger side. This is new 07 unit with 4 k miles.

Welcome to irv2 jwine.
The oil could be from your jack reservoir or a jack hose line that needs tightening.
Let us know what they find, enjoy the forums and do post often.

Is it possible that someone spilled oil while adding oil??

Check to make sure the oil you are seeing is not trans. fluid. Right under the radiator and slightly to the drivers side is the trans. fluid manifold connector from the trans fluid line to the radiator. There are two 'O' rings in this manifold that could leak.

Found out the repair shop is replacing radiator in my 07 itasca 35a which is warranty. Will pick up later this week and hopefully get more details. Jim

Picked MH up today and they did not replace radiator. They said Workhorse said to remove and have repaired locally. Supposedly it was the connector for oil cooler. The underside of MH had oil everywhere so it will be hard to tell if they fixed it or not. Is it me or is everyone associated with MH repairs a bunch of ding bats. I am calling workhorse tomorrow and tell them why this is last workhorse I will buy.

Sometimes I agree with the statement about Workhorse but just in case you aren't aware, some of the people that repair RV's are the same people on this forum you are asking for advise. These good folks can offer a world of knowledge if given a chance.

You also have the power to rate Workhorse repair facilities at Workhorse.com

My first update from repair shop said they were waiting on a new radiator and talked to WH customer relations guy who said they were out of radiators and they would be over a month before they got any in. He preached about they did not have to replace any broken parts but they could repair them and if they broke after warranty then tough. I am sure repair shop did not ask for a new radiator for no reason. Way to go WH my opinion is not changed any.

My original post was to ask if anyone else had seen this problem. If my description of repairs is irritating anyone please accept my apology.

Had same problem with oil. I verified myself it was the oil cooler connecter to radiator and then told the Rv repair what to fix. No problems since
