Hi and welcome to the site. :)

Code 98? That is an oxygen sensor fault code, but I suspect it is an indication of a fault elsewhere.

If it only comes on when the car is under load towing a caravan then I suspect a potential fuelling issue.
Does the car behave completely normally when not towing?

Which model and year do you drive (I guess it is a V6 judging by the fault code).
