2005 LR3 V8 ~75K miles
Factory tow receiver & wiring harness
A few years ago, I used my LR3 to tow a 2,700-lb car on a UHaul trailer. I figured it would be fine as it was way under the recommended weight. At about 55, the transmission seemed as if it wanted to shift. It was as if the clutch kept engaging. I looked in the manual and didn't find any setting to use when towing, so thought maybe the trailer was having issues. Well, the next time I towed a car, it did the same thing. I now have a race car that I will need to tow frequently but really don't want to buy a new vehicle. Any ideas? The truck has never been in a wreck and no transmissions issues. It was at about 55K miles when this happened this first time.
Thanks!
