Guys, will my little A4 1.8T engine be able to handle a small utility trailer hitched up. Maybe I should rephrase as whats the max. towing capacity for my audi. Does anyone have any experience.
The better question probably is does anyone have a old pickup for sale.

Tim, Considering that people in various microcars tow trailers (ie: Merc. Smart, Heinkel, etc.) as well as motorcycles, I'm sure that the A4 would be able to tow a trailer - not a fifth wheel with a Cat excavator on it of course, but a small utility trailer that you could carry small loads of building materials, etc. or a small pop-up trailer - probably around 1500 lbs. The max. towing capacity should be listed in your owner's manual - there are hitches out there for Audis made by Da'lan and others. Try
the towing load should not exceed three quarters of the unladen mass of the towing vehicle.
