Extension going in and out very slowly.

2006 Mountain Aire 4309 (4 slides). The rear driver side (motor under bed) extension works about half the speed. Suspect motor, any ideas?

you may want to try and lube the slide sea;s with some 303 protectant or a dry silicone. The motor may be good and just straining to move the slide against the seals.

I believe this is a new to you motorhome. Most of Newmar's sildes move slowly and that is normal. Do you know if that slide has ever moved faster?

No need to lube your bedroom slide all Newmar slides move slow but sure to their extension.
In Quick Tips & Mods link you have much information about slides, controlers and parts for slides.
We also have a COM_NET2 Link that will give you information about your coach.
If you need more help just ask.
