More likely soft springs than worn shocks unless they are self levelling shocks?

What is the noseweight of the caravan though? And how much stuff do you put in the boot?

If you tow a lot then maybe some aux springs?

Just get some heavy duty springs fitted they are cheap enough just undo the shocker at the bottom and push the suspension arm down and remove and refit the new ones

Thanks Bob,

I've contacted the makers of MAD suspension spring helpers today for some advice.

I don't know if you can still get these Monroe air levelling shockers

Basically you fit these shockers and in the boot you have a valve you attach an air line and pump them up

I had a set around 20 years ago worked really well attach caravan pump rear of car up to normal height back then they whee around £80 for a pair but well worth it

Foud them

We had that problem and after much research found that the se had lower suspension that all other Passats..

We found these the best cure,
