Driving your vehicle
Towing
AWD vehicles must be towed with a
wheel lift and dollies or flatbed
equipment with all the wheels off the
ground. For more information, refer to the
"Towing" section in chapter 8.
Vehicle inspection
• If the vehicle needs to be operated on a
vehicle lift do not attempt to stop any of
the four wheels from turning. This could
damage the AWD system.
• Never engage the parking brake while
running the engine on a car lift. This
may damage the AWD system.
Dynamometer testing
An AWD vehicle must be tested on a
special four wheel chassis dynamometer.

for your vehicle.
2. Place the rear wheels on the roll tester
for a speedometer test as shown in the
illustration.
3. Release the parking brake.
4. Place the front wheels on the
temporary free roller as shown in the

Keep away from the front of the vehicle
while the vehicle is in gear on the
dynamometer. The vehicle can jump
forward and cause serious injury or death.

instrument cluster, your vehicle may have
a malfunction with the AWD system.
