Towing

Did anyone tow with CL? Is that doable at all? Seems like it has a payload of 0. Thanks

Don't wanna overload the tranny. It's probably specified in the owners manual how much you can tow, i thought it was 1000lbs, but im not sure.

Read the owner's manual, d3 is designed for towing, if you have a stick, just use lower gears. The owner's manual lists the towing capacities, never tried it, cuz i wouldn't want to screw a hitch into the car, but it is possible.
