Dinghy Towing Front-wheel-drive vehicles equipped with a manual transmission, four-speed automatic transmission or five-speed automatic transmission may be dinghy towed from the front. These vehicles may also be towed by putting the front wheels on a dolly. See "Dolly Towing" later in this section. All-wheel-drive vehicles with the five-speed automatic transmission can be dinghy towed from the front. You can also tow these vehicles by placing them on a platform trailer with all four wheels off of the ground. These vehicles cannot be towed using a dolly. To tow your vehicle from the front with all four wheels on the ground, do the following: 1. Position and attach the vehicle to tow it behind the recreational vehicle. 2. Turn the ignition key to ACC. 3. Turn fog lamps and all accessories off. 4. If your vehicle has the manual transmission, shift your transmission to NEUTRAL and let the engine run for three minutes, then turn it off. If your vehicle has the five-speed automatic transmission, shift your transmission from DRIVE (D) to NEUTRAL (N) and let the engine run for three minutes. Then turn it off. Due to transmission fluid drain back, the transmission lubrication procedure in Step 4 is required every seven hours after the initial procedure has been completed, regardless of the vehicle being towed or parked. Once the procedure is performed, the transmission is adequately lubricated and can be recreational vehicle towed for seven hours prior to repeating the lubrication procedure. 286
