Rael Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Recently bought a 2001 Allroad, which I'm loving. Just wondered what suspension setting others are using for towing? Level 2 is normal according to the book, but I tend to leave it at the lowest level when driving solo - any advantage to going up to 2 or 3 with the van on?

Marks Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 When you are towing it is best to set the suspension to the setting that keeps your van at the correct angle for best handling. Quote Land Rover Discovery and Conquerer 630 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nme2no1 Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 With my Allroad I towed on level 2 which gave me a nice level tow, I think a possible danger on 1 would be suspension bottoming out. It's also good to use different heights, the shock absorbers wear out more evenly! The one thing that was good was to set the suspension low for hitching up, get the ball under the hitch, suspension on high and that hitches up the van, no load on the jockey wheel etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
