Test Drive
Hi , I want to FLAT TOW my 2007 xterra (with automatic trans) without removing the driveshaft. Question: If I leave the engine running while I tow it will that provide sufficient lubrication for the transmission? If you have done this please let me know how it worked for you. I have done this with my 88 Ford Bronco 2 in the past for thousands of miles without any issue -- and -- the data said that flat towing the Bronco would damage the transmission. Running the engine while towing did not damage the transmission. . Your comments are appreciated. Cheers, Allan Clarke, in Kelowna British Columbia Canada.
