Checked mine the other day - it starts with a 4, thank goodness

Tipper - have you a shock absorber fitted to your tow bar? - I have only towed a twin axle trailer with my truck as my new van won't be delivered until next March and didn't notice any bobbing due to hard suspension. If you don't, do you feel any difference to towing a caravan than with a car.

I have checked with the towbar fitters and they have told me that Witter are writing to everyone affected.They checked my details and i'm Ok, apparently the problem is with 2005 and later models
