Hi,having to have car towed to the garage tomorrow but becuase i have a splitter can't locate the towing eye so front bumper needs to be removed,i assume it's just a few screws and bolts,but seem to be having trouble in locating the correct 1's....could any1 point me in the right direction??

There are two plastic plug type things in the wheel arch on the edge of the bumper, two funny flat 18mm (IIRC) nuts under neath that secure the base to the chassis rail.. Then under the grille and headlights there are about 10 more plastic plugs..

The little plastic plugs you have to push the pin out of the center.

towed one word for you buddy, flatbed or your gonna end up damaging the AWD

only if you tow it on two wheels, i.e. rear wheels turning while front wheels are stopped or vica versa...otherwise, from what your saying, you couldnt roll in neutral with out damaging the AWD.

if he's looking for the towing eye he must be being pulled by a tow rope i guess

GazJenno

well that should be ok then shouldnt it...all 4 wheels on the ground going at the same speed.

You're totally fine towing it with a rope or an A-frame... But as above towing with a fish-tale style tow truck or jocky wheels will fudge your gearbox.
