Good advice from Brian - I would get underneath and only lube the bits that visibly need itBest to use a silicone or teflon spray on the moving joints ... oil and grease will gather dirt and do more harm.

I totally removed our double step while we were in Germany this year, the mate in Germany has a sort of waterproof fatty silicone spray grease, refurbed the whole step, never had the Hymer from new, but I imagine it’s now working better than new, perfect ?

I had a problem with my drivers door step, dealer fixed the fault but after a few weeks it got very juddery. Idoit had used lithium white grease, should never be used on plastic (guides are plastic).
I partly stripped mine down, cleaned up all the runners and used ordinary grease. Now works better than when it was new & has been fine for months. I found silicone waste of time.
Never ever use WD40 on a step or anything with nylon bushes quickest way to bu**er it.WD40 on all moving parts. it works and doesn't accept soiling from dust grit etc.
Works for me, never had a problem or caused one by using it.Never ever use WD40 on a step or anything with nylon bushes quickest way to bu**er it.
WD40 makes nylon swell.
