We own the above caravan pulled by a Volvo XC70 Diesel Estate car.I was wondering if anyone else who has this type of caravan has the following problem.
When pulling the van over rough roads, the caravan tends to thump down on the suspension, this in turn is transmitted to the car through the anti pitching stabiliser. The dealer informs me that this is due the weight of the caravan plus the fact shock absorbers are fitted to the van.
This problem first came to light last year when we collected the van new with none of our belongings inside so it cannot be overweight that is causing this. Last year, the dealer eplaced the axle and the shock absorbers, the problem is still there.
Anyway perhaps if anyone has this type of problem they could let me know.
