Can 2005 Volkswagen Passat be Towed Behind RV
Updated 10/24/2016 | Published 10/22/2016 >
Question:
I am looking at two different breaking systems on your site for my 2005 B 5 VW Passat wagon. My concern is can this vehicle be towed safely as it is a trip tropic not a standard tyranny. What is the proper towing procedure. If yes which one do you recommend

Expert Reply:
Everything I looked up for your vehicle says that it has to be towed on a tow dolly and can't be towed with all 4 wheels on the ground. We do have a tow dolly that would work well though.
For that you would want the Roadmaster Tow Dolly part # RM-2050-1 as long as your wheels are smaller than 17 inch diameter which would work great as it comes with brakes, ramps and taillights.
