Just a FYI, while camping this last week, one morning while sitting outside drinking coffee, I could see on the other side of the trailer a small puddle of water. When i went to check it out it was where the hot and cold water drains come out under the trailer and a small drip was on the hot water valve. At first I thought it was the valve leaking but it was coming down the line from the trailer. I went inside and checked under the kitchen sink and the bathroom sink and no leak, I even checked under the shower, through the inspection access and no leak. Went back outside and did a visual where the lines went up through the floor and went back inside and it was behind the shower. Luckily where the shower faucet is there are four screws holding it to the wall, removed and where the hot water line screwed to the faucet was loose, tightened it up and no more drip. We have had the trailer for about 5 years, a potential problem adverted. Another item to check every so often, plumbing fixtures.

I had that issue when my Sonic was brand new. Just about every one of the twist-on type plumbing fittings was loose. Had leaks at the kitchen and bathroom faucets, toilet, and the shower faucet (which has to be removed from the wall to get to the fittings).

Great advice! I had the exact same thing happen this spring with mine. Didn't see a leak outside but heard a water dripping sound coming from the bathroom behind the shower when the system had water pressure. Removed the shower faucet, tightened the connections, problem solved.
