Towing with a Quattro?

I've got another one that 'might' count. Just got the new clutch in the
5ktq, drove it to the end of the driveway. Down the street a couple of
hundred yards to the point where the GF's 4kq stopped rolling down the hill
as I was trying to jump start it (dead starter). Chained the 5ktq up to the
back of it, locked the diffs (Feb. in ME, packed snow on the road, all four
wheels spinning and clawing for traction) and dragged the sucker back up the
hill so I could have another (successful) whack at jump starting the thing
down the hill to get it pulled into the already warm garage for a new
starter. One hell of a clutch break-in if I ever saw one! ;-)

Happy Holidays!
