Volkwagen Towable 4 Wheels Down Wth Manual Transmission?

Recommended Posts

Dealer said any VW car can be towed front wheels up on a tow dolly, and wondering if any VW , any year with a manual transmission can be towed 4 wheels down.

Also anyone out there towing 4 down, a 2000 to 2002 Jeep Liberty, 4 down.

1993goldwing,

Welcome to the FMCA Forum.

Corporate towable decisions are based on both MECHANICAL and LEGAL/LIABILITY issues.

What the dealer told you is VW's corporate answer.

You may find independent sources of information that addresses only the mechanical aspect of the issue that suggests that some may be towed 4 wheels down. Of course, any damage from doing this would not be covered by VW warranty.

2003 VW Bug, manual tranny. Put tranny in neutral, turn key to first click, hook up and go. Easiest vehicle I have had to tow.
Bought a Lexus and will be setting that up to tow, also.
