Has anyone else seen this error when towing? I'm towing a 5,100lbs boat trailer with 550lbs tongue weight. Vehicle only has 4 people in it and all the gear is in the boat. I've had it weighed and am no where near my max trailering weight of 8400lbs. Dealer has no idea why i'm getting it either. Basically, the car things it's overweight and yelling at me.
My only thought: I have air ride suspension and i have lifting links that took me up .5" to get a cleaner ride. I'm wondering if while daily driving the car thinks I've just always got more stuff since it has a higher PSI to keep it at the set height BUT when i'm towing it's putting so much air to keep it there that it thinks it's overweighted.
My next step is to swap to my original links and test that theory but that's going to require a free weekend day to play with that. Otherwise I'm at a total loss.
