Granted you don't have a lot of miles on it but at 25 years old all those fluids are tired and contaminated &

Your coach sits a lot, cool nights and warm days creates sweating and that accumulates in the oils (You may consider changing out brake fluid for DOT 5 fluid since it sits a lot). Sounds like you have a M/H that me or others would envy with the miles and maint done by the PO. Kudo's to you for all the work into it at this point. Mine has sat since 2009 (not even started) and I am going to replace a lot of things to numerous to mention in this post.
Basically I blew a piston in 1997 with our last one, and needed a new engine, once the coach is off to the garage for 1 week, you cannot do anything in a motel on your vacation. My wife is very skeptical now we have another one (1997) so I am going over the top for maintenance, (I already replaced the roof last year). Picked up 2 brand new tires for Free
, that's a start, blow outs can cause serious damage, your tires life is over, you need new ones.
