Hey Yah Old Prick (that's an Inside Joke Folks - Q Ball Knows)In 2009 when we bought the coach, we already had the TDI Manual Trans Jetta. The tow guides then did list it as toadable. The dealers at the time and VW America were all saying Nooooooooooooooooooo, just trying to dodge liability. It was VW KrautLand that gave the Okey Dokey toadable to the Tow Guide Folks. The verify I also did was check in the VW TDI Forum, and wrench turners there said it was OK to flat tow. I guess as a last resort go to the VW TDI Forum and ask.
