    I think it depends on the trailer, we had koegel and they were reset empty but you needed to do it after every load, simple anyway took 3 seconds !

    if trailer reads wrong weight EBS parameters are wrong. You are so experienced in trucks, I sugest you have some trailer EBS problems and you know how to program EBS unit

    It's quite few companies that have impressed me like Tatra, there are a some but they are not many. That axle design is what got me, so simple and yet so utterly brilliant.
