Don’t Flat Tow in NEUTRAL!

Flat Towing Can Damage a Transmission. Be it a manual or an automatic transmission, flat towing in neutral can damage the transmission. It’s perfectly fine for some, but others need special consideration.

In most cases, transmission components are lubricated and cooled by either pressurized or splash lubrication supplied by the input shaft (engine side of the trans). If the transmissions are spun by the output side of the transmission, like when flat towing, lack of lubrication can result in transmission failure.

So always refer to the owners manual before attempting to flat tow a vehicle behind and RV or for vehicle recovery.
