Rottman, Any Towbar that has been advertised on the market, as being compatible with your make and model of car, should not cause you any problems as long as it's fitted and wired to the manufactures instructions. I do not know if there is a retractable version, although there will be a...

Pond01, The torque setting for the towball is 120Nm. I replaced my original one for an Al-Ko Extended Neck version. Regards,

I'm in agreement with Parksy here, with regards to checking the gas supply. A few years back there was an issue with blocked diaphragms in the fixed bulkhead regulators. I would suggest checking all the gas rings are working properly, that way at least you know the gas is flowing through. It...

Raywood, One could say why would anyone want to spend £50k on a combined outfit and cause relentless traffic jams to other road users :P Regards,

Hi Kelly, Welcome to the Forum. As your car is only 2019 then I would have a vehicle specific wiring, then you will have no issues with warranty. Also as Dacia are part of the Renault Group, you don't want to start having niggles, as Renault are expensive when things go wrong. Regards,

I made this mistake leaving a campsite in Woolacombe at Easter. I knew there was something in my mind telling me, so I turned on the sidelights and checked the caravan lights from the mirrors. I had to wait until there was a large enough layby to pull into and couple the electrics there. It...

OtherClive, Quote "Clearly the driver doesn’t know difference between front and rear" The driver assumed as the engine was in the front, that's the correct way :whistle: Regards,

Hi ProfJohnL, This is taken directly from their website 3.2.3 Accuracy Having undergone the tests described in Clause 4 and Clause 5, the noseweight gauge shall be accurate to within ±5 kg or ±10 % of the specified mass, whichever is least. 3.3 Operating height range The operating...

I've had a look at BS 7961 the standard Milenco quote for their Noseweight Gauge. Nothing interesting stands out, apart from the accuracy of the gauge must be +/- 5kg or 10% of the specified mass. The gauge must also be capable of measuring loads between 50kg and at least 100kg, it is only...

OtherClive, With regards to your Milenco gauge, do they not quote a BS number? As they're a British registered company, one would assume they work to British Standards requirements. I use mechanical bathroom scales to check my noseweight and aim for the 95kg mark. Regards,

Steve28961, I have a Lwb Shogun SG3 and my towball is on the top two holes of the towbar plate. It was originally on the lower holes, but when I measured the height of the ball when the car was laden, found it to be near 350mm from the road. The towball must be between 350mm and 420mm when...

My insurance stipulates that if the caravan has an Al-Ko receiver, then the relevant lozenge should be fitted. I use a Kojack to align the wheel, whilst levelling the caravan. Regards,

I'm not too sure if the 05 and 07 reflect to an amendment in the document revision of proof of ownership, or Cris registration. 05 would have been the previous owner and 06 would be Glossop Caravans, if they took it as part of the sale of a new purchase. 07 will reflect the fact that you are...

I paid just under £800 for my Powrtouch Evolution and wouldn't manage without it. As CustardAvenger states, I caravan on my own and could not move it myself nor get on and off the driveway and slope. I no longer use an awning, as I have a fiamma sun canopy. Regards,

Hello kgb26 and welcome to the forum. I've owned an Adria caravan for over 6 years. My first was an Astella Rio Grande and I now have a 2019 Adora Thames. As previous replies from Raywood and Hutch, most of the fitted equipment is common across all caravan manufactures and also most have the...
