Expert Reply:
Your 2012 Volkswagen Jetta 5 speed manual is towable, but it is not recommended to tow at over 65 mph according to the manufacturer and should be started every so often and run for 5 minutes to prevent battery drain.
If you are interested in a complete flat towing system for this 2012 VW Jetta, I'd be happy to assist with some recommendations.
