Available Services and Repairs for Tiffin Motorhomes
Your Tiffin motorhome’s reliability is built on its high-end chassis. Consequently, it requires a service facility with the tools and expertise to match. We provide comprehensive, specialized chassis service for your specific platform, whether it’s the Ford F-53, a Freightliner, a Spartan, or Tiffin’s own proprietary PowerGlide chassis.
Preventative Maintenance
Preventative care for a luxury diesel pusher is extensive. Because of this, our technicians follow the precise chassis-specific schedules for your Spartan, Freightliner, or Ford F-53 platform. This service includes complete oil and filter changes for Cummins diesels or Ford V8s, as well as fuel-water separator replacement, Allison transmission fluid checks, and full chassis lubrication.
Brake System Repairs
Nearly all Tiffin coaches use heavy-duty brake systems. Therefore, our technicians are experts in servicing the full air brake systems on your diesel pusher, including air dryer cartridge replacement, S-cam brake inspection, and diagnosing air leaks. In addition, we fully service the heavy-duty hydraulic disc brakes on all gas-powered models.
Engine and Transmission Services
This service is our specialty and a core part of our dealership-alternative promise. We perform expert Cummins engine diagnostics and Allison transmission service. Furthermore, our team will handle all “Check Engine” light diagnostics, fuel system repairs, and mechanical service for your diesel pusher, as well as full diagnostics and repair for the Ford V8 powertrains in the gas model lineup.
Suspension and Steering System Maintenance
A Tiffin’s smooth ride often comes from its sophisticated air suspension and, on the PowerGlide chassis, an independent front suspension (IFS). Our technicians actively service all air ride components, including ride height valves and airbags. Additionally, our heavy-duty alignment rack provides precise alignments for these advanced coaches to ensure a stable, fatigue-free drive.
Cooling System Maintenance
Diesel pushers feature large side- or rear-mounted radiators, which require specialized service. Consequently, our team services this entire heavy-duty cooling system. This includes inspecting the hydraulic fan drive systems, cleaning the radiator and charge air cooler (CAC) stack, and replacing any belts, hoses, or water pumps to prevent overheating.
Electrical System Diagnostics and Repairs
The 12-volt chassis electrical system in a Tiffin is highly complex, so our technicians are trained to diagnose and repair all driving-related systems. This includes starters, alternators, chassis batteries, and the multiplex wiring that controls your dash and lighting.
Note: We do not service the 120V “house” electrical system.
Exhaust System Repairs
Our technicians service the complete exhaust system, from the turbocharger to the tailpipe. This work includes repairing leaks and servicing the engine’s exhaust brake (Jake brake). Moreover, we handle all maintenance and repair of the diesel aftertreatment system (DPF/SCR) to keep you emissions-compliant.
Tire Services
The tires on a 45-foot coach represent your most critical safety component. For this reason, our team inspects all tires (including inner duals) for proper wear, age-related cracking (date codes), and inflation. Our heavy-duty equipment also allows us to balance, rotate, and replace the large 22.5-inch (or larger) tires your Tiffin requires.
DEF System Maintenance (for Diesel Engines)
A functional Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) system is critical for all modern diesel coaches. Therefore, our technicians provide full diagnostics for DEF system faults, “limp mode” conditions, and warning lights. This specialized service also includes repairing or replacing DEF pumps, heaters, and sensors to ensure your Cummins engine runs at full power.
