towing a tsi

[twisted_gears]

I'm getting a 90 tsi awd roller the car comes with everything to get it up and running. But right now it does not have the trans engine or t case in it. Can I tow it on a two wheel dolly since there's no trans or t case in it right now?

you probably can but i highly recommend towing it with a flatbed or get a trailer....

I towed mine with a two wheeled dolly, it had no tcase, or driveline. I got the car running with no problems. Just make sure if you tow it with the rear wheels on the ground that it has oil in the rear diff, or you will toast it.

You can tow it

I can get a trailer. I was just looking to see if I could tow it with a two wheel because I can rent those from work for free

If you can get a trailer, then why chance it at all? I say get the trailer and go for it.

Yes you can... Make sure you take the driveshaft out before you go to tow it though. Otherwise you'll be spinning the driveshaft and there's nothing there to support it.

what kinda oil does the dif take (sorry this is my first awd) it's been sitting in a garage for the last six years since the engine was blown

75-90 gear oil should be fine.
