Bedroom slide issue

The top of our bedroom slide, when retracting, no long sits flush with the side of the coach.  It's recessed about 10-15mm while the bottom of the slide sits flush.

Is there a simple way to adjust this? Or is there something majorly wrong?

If it is a bed slide out, look under the bed, there are teflon sliders adjusted by bolts in the slideout frame, possible they have loosened up.

Before you reinflate the bladder try pushing on the top of the slide from the inside to see if it will realign.  The bottom rear corner of my LR slide occasionally will not pull in all the way.  If I just lean on it as it goes in it will.

Thanks, I just had a good look under the bed and nothing looked obviously loose or out of place.  I didn't check them with a wrench though.

Thanks for the tip, we'll give that a try.
