V70XC and auto car wash

Post by PGFaini »

Just a thought, but since my owner's manual says this AWD vehicle can't be towed, but has to be put on a rollback, does anyone have any info as to whether "towing" it through a car wash would be doing any damage to the tranny?

I wouldn't recommend it. Isn't handwashing more fun anyway?

Yes it is, but I've Been going off-road a lot lately, and this North Carolina red clay is a bear to remove. Thought I'd visit the local Auto Bell.

Those high-pressure wash-it-yourself places are great. NC clay and all...
