solera

Three days ago we took delivery of a brand new Solera 24S. We drove it 170 miles to our home where its been parked since. In reviewing all the Sprinter systems, I checked tire pressures to find the inside dually tires would not read on the gauge nor would they accept air. The photo shows the...

Bought it two days ago, new, and now we're 170 miles away from the dealer on a weekend. Got home and the slide won't operate. No noises when the switch is depressed; connected to shore power; everything else works; tested all fuses for continuity, as well as 20 amp Circuit Breaker on panel at...

Can someone tell me where the surround sound sub-woofer speaker or speakers are installed in the 24R with the mattress option over the cab? A picture would help if available or convenient.

Where do you find a replacement ? with vent tube ? Sent from my iPad using Forest River Forums

We are in the midst of finding or having built a Solera 24s/Sunseeker 2400s and unsure of which options to buy. We have found dealers offering discounts off of MSRP depending on the options chosen. Does anyone have an opinion of which ones you can't live without and should be on all units...

Considering the FR Solera vs Ford Gas C class. Do you get 12-15 MPG as the sales people state? Also, I read the DEF capacity is 2gal and only last 5,000 miles. Is that true?

We just picked up our brand new Solera from Tampa RV that has the wrong decals (Sunseeker instead of Solera) on all sides! Dealer indicates that they have contacted Forest River and they will send the correct decals when they have them available. I hope they are right because this is rather...

I guess it's that time of the year for me. I plugged in my Solera from my 30A house plug this evening. Never had a problem before, but this time my microwave GFI switched off. I smelled something unusual as well. So, I unplugged, waited awhile, and then plug back in. This time the GFI did not...

I’m coming up on 14K miles on my 2012 Solera and was just wondering what kind if mileage I could expect to get on brake pads. I know all kind of things can come into play here, but just looking for an average. Looked around here at FR and the Sprinter site and found lots of things on brakes but...

Does anybody know where I can buy or order a bug deflector hood shield for my solera?

Just wanted to introduce ourselves to the Forum. We recently purchased a 2014 Solera 24R after having a Class A. Liked the features of the Solera and found ourselves comparing the storage space with similar RVs. The Solera just stood out above the other choices. We added the Hellwig sway bar...

Has anyone with the 24r sofa option, come up with a good place to store the tabletop and pedestal while traveling? Thanks

Fellow Forester/Solera owners - If you have the dinette option, could you tell me if you have two sets of seat belts on each side? Ours has only two on the seat facing the front. Thanks! Sent from my iPad using Forest River Forums

I just bought a cover for my Solera, and I'm considering installing a roof rack and storage box to put the cover in when I'm on the road. I'd like to avoid hoisting the heavy cover up to the roof each time I want to cover the mh. Has anyone installed such a system on the roof? Is there a...

the refrigerator is working now on both shore power and lp when parked, but not while traveling. dometic says maybe a negative pressure at the vent... if there were a fan (as there is in some refrigerators) and it had failed, then i would pull the refrigerator. too much work unless i know for...

i have had intermittent video dropouts on my backup camera for a while. last week it failed completely. i believe the monitor works, as the screen glows white and i can view the menus. no menu adjustment helps. i am on av1, which is the correct input. i have plugged and unplugged the...

We are VERY new to this. So far we have spent a total of three nights on two trips. Super fun! Unfortunately, our next excursion won't be until November. In the meantime it is outside in the Florida heat. What are the basic things we should do to store it between trips? For example...

The breaker has popped that controls the 120v plugs by the front tv and also by the drivers side of the cabover bed. There is now nothing plugged in but the breaker still pops. Does anyone know what else might be on that breaker that i might check? Unfortunately FR seems to have no wiring...

I wish I could see this model up close and personal, I've only seen a 24S for a brief time. I am wondering about the following: 1- Does the rear bed have any electrical outlets on either side? I have a CPAP and need to plug it in...hate to use an extension cord. 2- How is privacy achieved at the...

I am thinking of charging my batteries with two Solar panel maintainers while it is in storage for five months while I travel overseas. Does anyone have any info or experience with using a maintainer solar panel that I may place in the front window around 3 amp or so. Thanks in advance. Capt Dan...

According to the 2013 Solera brochure, the Soleras exterior height is 11'8", however in 2014 the height is 11'3", is this the case the height was reduced in 2014 by 5"?

I'm just about to pick up a new Solera and I'm a little confused about VIN numbers. I've found the chassis (Mercedes) VIN number, but haven't found another (Forest River) VIN for the motorhome. The dealer seems to think that the Mercedes VIN covers the motorhome as well, but that doesn't match...

My husband and I are about to retire and have never owned a TT or an RV but we did have a pop-up during the 80's. We thought we had our minds made up and were going to purchase a 22' Surveyor 226 TT. But after thinking about it, we now think a small RV will suit our needs. We are looking at the...

Sorry for length - First time RV purchase, I have 3 children and have narrowed my choice down to a 24J View or a Solera 24s. I eliminated the Thor Siesta based on forums and the pdf here. I have been contacted by several View/Itasca dealers, and they argue that their much higher price is...

I note that on the back-up camera monitor of my 2013 Solera 24R, there is a "V1/V2" button. Pressing it toggles between a camera view and a "no signal" error message, leading me to believe that it is possible to view feeds from two different cameras on the monitor. Has anyone added a second...
