Towing with a Turbo 200 1984

posted by  someone claiming to be Bill on  Thu Jun 28 01:44 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Volvo recommends any towing be done with the overdrive off. This means high rpms and noise at highway speeds.

Has anyone had experience using the overdrive while towing a trailer in the 800 lbs. range? Will the transmission truly suffer?

Thanks,

Bill Harkins

1984 245Ti
