Towing in overdrive is a BIG mistake! Do not do it unless you want to burn out your transmission, I am a mechanic of 20 some years and know this 1st hand. Your shift points are higher in OD which tends to make the trans run hotter when towing. Heat = Death to transmission. Might take some time, but if you do this on a regular basis especially on long trips, you are slowly, but surely cooking your trans!
Is there a difference between tow/haul on truck vs OD? Notice they don't really put OD on many trucks anymore and are now referred to as Tow/Hual? |
