What is this noise?

Hi there,
First time posting. We have a 2016 Thunderbolt 425amp. We have been settled for about a week and the last few days I keep hearing a banging noise under the bedroom. I can even feel the floor shake. There can be quite a few hours between occurrences or maybe twenty minutes. We checked the auto level system and it is still level.
Any idea what could be going on?

It may be your front landing jacks. But normally they are said to make a popping type of noise. If you look at the LCI tech bulletins you will see a correction for the popping noise. You have to add antistickon sp fluid to the hydro system.

Hmm, I suppose you could call it a popping noise. It's loud and shakes the unit.
I'll look into this, thank you
