What in the world kind of way to tow a car is that?

grizbo

Diesel? That's pretty wild! We couldn't do that in the states--the pump hose nozzle wouldn't fit in the fuel tank inlet. Hope the story has a happy ending for ya.

nah i was only kidding, diesel wasnt put in. ill find out what was wrong tomorrow hopefully. The car overheated to the point of "shutdown engine" and the battery died, all at once.

Reading up on here about all the failures that are possible for the battery system alone is frightening after spending so much money!! I hope its a simple fix.

If you shut down the engine when it tells you to, i presume you avoid damage from overheating?!

It's called ghetto Towen3d!

Jesus, I would have e-slapped you if you really did put diesel in there.

And that is ghetto. lol

yeah ive never seen a tow like that either, maybe its a Hong Kong thing haha.. it wouldnt be good if one of those little rear trolley wheels found their way into a pothole!

anyone got an answer RE possible overheating damage?

Alexbenz

well thats a better tow then doing it straight up on a tow truck unless you have a flat bed......the way they did it saves messin up the rear bumper and exhaust tips
