[T3] Towing the T3 Auto



Joe - 

BTDT, and unfortunately you will need to tow the car with the back wheels on 
the dolly.  The transmission fluid pump only works if the engine is running.  
The owners manual only recommends towing of the car at less than 30 mph and 
for less than 30 miles in emergencies.

UNLESS, you disconnect the axles at the CV joints so the trans is not trying 
to turn over.  When I brought my car from NY to MI I rented a u-haul trailer 
so that all four wheels were off the ground.  Much better way to go.

Good luck with the move.
