Hi everyone,

It has been a long time since being here and I still own my MY09 GTi!

Anyway, I have searched and read up a lot, but this will ease my mind a little more having fresh answers.

I am purchasing a 3C Passat and just need some piece of mind with the towing info.

1. Does the passat tow well enough? They are slightly different engines to the golf/jetta?

2. I noticed that Hayman Reece have towbars now a fair bit cheaper than the VW ones. Anyone using one?

3. Does the V6 and TSi tow as well as the diesel? (Don't want a Diesel)


I will only be towing a bike trailer (400kgs) and up to 3 DIRT bikes. So about 700kg all up.

Many thanks in advance!
