Can you tow automatic transmission Saab?
Yes, you can tow an automatic transmission Saab, but you must be very careful to tow it without it being "in gear". If that is not possible then it is best to have the car moved on a flat-bed truck, or by raising the driving wheels so that they are on a "dolly". A dolly is a sort of low wheeled vehicle which can have the "driven" wheels of the car sitting on the dolly, and not on the road surface.
Can you tow your Mercedes 190 automatic?
Yes you can. As with all automatic transmission cars You have to get the gear selector into Neutral (N), this disengages the engine from the drive shaft and allows the car to roll. To achieve this, turn the ignition on, press the brake pedal and shift the gear lever to N. Attach your tow rope to the tow hook below the front bumper and tow.
