As i have said the issue is not the caravan i believe the car is not man enough i think the spring is to soft and as there is no alternative then i am stuck with it.
The problem as i see it the rear end sag lift the weight off the front wheels therefore there is lack of feel in the steering so when being overtaken for example the bow wave of the other vehicle causes the van to move slightly then my input on the steering is exaggerated because of the lift on the front wheels due to the a4se trailing on the floor.

have they checked that you have the correct rear spring?
