As for the gap you pictured it appears you need to sync the motors, extend the slide 3 - 4" then retract til it's in holding the button for 5 seconds & repeat this 4 - 5 times, this is the procedure the factory service team showed me when mine came in at an angle leaving a 1 - 1 1/2" gap on one side.
The service techs also recommended using Pledge furniture polish on all the rubber seals throughout the rv. Personally I use the imitation Pledge from the dollar store & works just as well.
NOPE..... I appreciate you weighing in. But trust me, we tried everything. I even sent it back to Thor in Dec for them to diagnose it and repair it (over 1800 miles at their expense and 2 months work) as a 4th repair attempt.

The last diagnosis from a Thor technician in CT in Feb was that the boxes (accessed from underneath the slide) was puting pressure on the slide and needed to be removed and grinded down. At thispoint, I had enough "arts and crafts" on our new unfixable Miramar full wall slide. IT WAS DEFECTIVE AND I BELIEVE TO BE JUST OVERWEIGHT!
