Hope everyone involved is safe and well.
On the plus side, one fewer caravan to clog up the roads.

may not be the definitive cause of this one but a hit home reminder to always lock the air suspension when towing!

Don't the p38 lock the EAS automatically when you plug in the trailer like the L322 does ?

I don't think so as they make a big point of it in the manual and they gave it a locking button....
and even if i am wrong and it did....do you think you could trust any electrics or automatics on a P38?!

- In the UK, thankfully.
This is all new to me, I must read up on the P38 before mine hits the highway again...

does a 1" height change make that much difference!?
i like it being left to the inhibit switch - gives almost full control over the system
1" ???
How is the VW Toerag treating you?
Yeah that's the height difference between standard and motorway heights isn't it?

blown its turbo's yet ?
Without hijacking the op thread: very well no troubles yet touch wood...and still bags of fun. Drivetrain is holding together well
Even if one of the two £900 variable vane turbos blew or either of the two FIPS or 10 injectors then they are all covered under my £200 2 year warranty
i did try to warranty a p38 but it seemed they were too old aerofabrique

Yes! Change the centre of gravity at 60mph and you will learn more about physics than you did at scholl.
