While camping this past week I discovered water leaking inside the R-Pod, against the wall, at the city water connector. I couldn't tell exactly where the leak was coming from: damaged "connector"; clamp where tubing meets connector; hole/split in tubing; etc.

We were hooked up to city water, low water pressure, no leakage visible on outside of R-Pod.

Have any of you experienced this? Any suggestions on how to fix?

We had that happen when we did our pre-purchase inspection. Turned out to be a washer in the hose connection fitting. Hope yours is that simple. As I recall, the fitting is attached from the outside so if it is the pex clamp, it's easy to get to.
