As long as you don't leave the touareg in N and trust the park brake to hold stance you should be fine either way 😌

I won't mention any names but.....

I hope that I don't offend anyone. My following comments are intended to be in good humour. However, wasn't there a cartoon character called Ginger Meggs and could one consider Singh's comment to be a 'Meggs moment', or something similar? 😉

We all learn from each other's knowledge and experience, that alone is the intent. 🙏👍

 

[Deli Llama]

Yes. No need for this forum if we didn't.

That's what separates most humans from most other species of animals.

We often leave the van connected to the car for overnight stops. It saves hitching and unhitching. We do NOT put down the jockey wheel nor the van legs. There is no need for those because the connection to the car prevents the van from tipping. We do use ramps to level the caravan from side to side and the car's air suspension to level the van front to back.

Having said that I don't know the answer your question. 🤔

What happens if the van starts rocking through the night. Won’t u get a flat car battery with constant re adjustment lol.

Never had that problem so far. Maybe that's when we should put it into 'jack mode' to stop the self levelling? I've never noticed it self levelling once I've locked the car.

I’m not sure how I could be nothing but legal if I keep the tow ball weight under 280kg and the van under 3.5t.

Matt the challenge here is to do that AND keep your rear axle loads under there maximum rating too with a full fuel load, vehicle passengers and cargo.
It seems that however I try to calculate the simplest is to have the setup weighed fully loaded with wheel scales just like will happen at a roadside check.

It was only 3.5 minutes of fame and it was at 5.10am in the morning. Lol

I thought it would be something like my licence allows me to ride a motorcycle and drive a car. It doesn't cost me anymore money except for originally going for both tests.

I agree that people are getting dumber. They see rubbish on social media and just copy it without thinking. There was a case of a woman saw on tick-tock, or something like that, that one could put water in the fuel tank to get just a few more kilometres driving if one runs out of fuel. A policeman noticed that she was pouring litres of water into the tank. She didn't go anywhere with that other than expensive repairs.

Maybe with training and licensing we to can achieve this

If you struggle backing up when towing, just slap a Red Bull sticker on your trailer, and problem solved!

Looks like a great trip! Hope you have that windscreen replaced and acc calibrated soon.

Could be you we ran into 😉
