Towing with D24t equiped 7xx series??

[RedArrow]

Nobody seems to mention here the push-button 5th gear on m46 tranny....

It is not the best tranny for towing ultraheavy near-the-limit rigs.
The greenbook or the m46 greenbook (idk which one) even mentions somewhere some speed limitations for when towing with the m46.

But my family we used to tow with the m46 cars and never really had trouble screwing the tranny. Mountain areas may result having a totally different or opposite experience.

I`m thankful if you share your experience towing with m46 with laycock overdrive. it isnt a real 5 gear tranny as they say

Pulling a heavy load (another car etc) plus weight of trailer, especially from standstill or uphill, might really be a bad day for the laycock 5th gear button setup tranny.
The write up actually suggests a max speed limit for the m46 when towing, at about 52 or 60 kph i think. KPH, not mph. I`ll try to find the article written by Volvo.
