FWIW, using a WDH on a PASM equipped P!g will really p!ss off the warranty coverage.
It's been covered here in the P!g Pen before

Thanks for the thorough response, tetice. The trailer I am picking up is an Airstream travel trailer, and is what I would characterize as "partially loaded" (dishes, linens, pots, pans, hoses, etc). It is fairly light (~3000lbs dry, ~4000lbs GVW) and should have a tongue weight well within the Cayenne's limits.
My initial thought was as you recommended--tow it without the WDH. However, since the WDH is already on the trailer, it may be just as much hassle to remove it as it will be to get it properly set up. One thing the WDH will do is to adjust the height of the hitch ball to allow for a level trailer to tow vehicle connection, so it might be worth a try. My primary concern, as you point out, are the electronic stability controls. I have no idea how WDH might affect those.
Anyone else out there with experience in this area?
