slide noise

Out of the blue on recent trip, large kitchen slide started creaking/vibrating on our 2016 34QS. Its gone from somewhat annoying to horrible. Less on smooth roads, but really bad on less than perfect roads. I've checked everywhere for anything loose including dinette, cabinets, sink, fridge. I noticed yesterday when I braked it clunked like it was sliding forward. I have service scheduled in two weeks. Thanks in advance for any ideas or suggestion for things to check.

You might try a slide lock to help support it in the retracted position. I have a full wall slide and use it all the time. Really works well on rough roads

We have to do this to my dads MH once or twice a year. It has the same type of slide. First time we did it we didn't put enough lube in it. Put a bunch in there and it will be good.

Let us know how it works. I would have never thought it would fix the noise. Sounded like it was something broken in the wall.
