When run my slides in( in about a month) I will take better note of how they sound and post back how it compares.

I personally have no clue as what causes this noise, but it reminds of a stone dragging. Perhaps a pebble or 2 caught under slide floor? Any sign of damage to kitchen floor?
That was my first thought that something was caught under the slide. But there are no marks or scratches on the kitchen floor. The other slides have some noise, but nothing compared to the kitchen slide. The first time I took it back to the dealer they checked and cleaned everything and no noise. I am careful to level the rig properly so that is not a problem. The noise seems to come from the right side of the slide from the inside of the rig. I returned the Alpine back to the dealer Saturday, so I will be checking back tomorrow and show them the video.
