Question:
I want to flat tow my 2012 Hyundai Elantra w/ manual transmission. I understand I am good to go. However I wonder if the odometer will continue to rack up the miles while being towed behind my RV Thanks

Expert Reply:
Late model cars with electronic dash displays generally do not record towed miles since the key is typically in the off position. With the key off such electronic circuits will not have power and so they will usually not record mileage when the car is flat towed. If your car is an exception to this general rule you can find out by recording mileage before and after a flat towing trip.
