Does the Passat have a tow hook at the rear?
1 Answers
The Passat does not have a fixed tow hook installed at the rear. The tow hook is located near the left front fog light, and it can only be seen after removing the grille. Towing tools: Choose towing tools with eye-catching colors, such as yellow, fluorescent green, or fluorescent red. If towing at night, use a tow rope or tow bar with reflective materials to enhance warning effectiveness. Towing distance: Maintain a safe distance. When using a tow rope, to prevent rear-end collisions, control the distance and speed properly. Generally, the length of a tow rope is about 5m–10m, so the distance should be kept within the effective range of the tow rope, ensuring it remains taut. The towing speed should be kept below 20km/h. Towing precautions: Ensure communication and coordination between the front and rear vehicles. Both vehicles should turn on their hazard warning lights during towing and drive along the outermost lane. Additionally, a towing sign can be placed on the rear of the towed vehicle to alert other drivers to drive carefully.
