The owners manual says 50 miles is the maximum towing limit, but I wonder if anyone has tested that theory and what the results were. |

Thanks Smoky, I didn't realize the transmissions were one in the same, and that it was ok to pull the Golf and Jetta. I have used 4wd toads for many years. |

Can't it be held in neutral center with a bracket. The lever has to go forward or back to go into gear. |
