Have you checked your tyre pressure? if your tyres are over inflated this could cause it to " bounce"  and under inflated will make the van feel heavy when towing. Like above you should put most of your weight over the axels then to the back to balance out for your nose weight. Sure you will sort it only towed our van a few times and now like a seasoned pro at towing lol.  <img align="absmiddle" src="forum_images/smiley20.gif" width="23" alt="17">

My towbar has a pic of the tow ball and a arrow pointing down directly above it saying 75kgs next to it. So I assume my nose weight needs to be 75kgs?
Does this sound right ?
My van has a plaque on the side saying running order 1085 and mtplm 1340. So am I right in saying I add the 1085 to the weight I put in it ie awning etc and that gives me my actuall mtplm?
