How to tow a BMW without a tow hook?

Writer Rachel Davis

If you need to tow a BMW without a tow hook, there are a few things you can do. You can use a tow strap or a tow bar. If you’re using a tow strap, make sure it’s attached to the frame of the car and not the bumper. Make sure the tension is even on both sides of the car, and the weight is equal on both sides. Make sure you have a good grip on your car, whether you’re using the tow strap or the tow bar to pull it.

Tow straps are great if you don’t plan to use them for very long, but if you need to be out in inclement weather or there’s any other reason you might need to tow your car for an extended period, a tow bar is a better option. You can use a tow bar even if you don’t have a trailer hitch on your car. Just make sure you get the right size tow bar for your car.

When using a tow bar, it’s important to make sure it’s properly attached to your car. You can think of the tow bar as a ball and socket, only you want the socket to take up all of the space between the ball and your car. If there is an open space between them, you could lose control of your vehicle during the towing process or even damage your car or other property.

If you need more information on towing with a tow bar, read the owner’s manual for more detailed instructions. A tow strap is often used by people who are having trouble with their car battery or simply want to move their car into the garage when they get home from work. A tow strap can be attached around your bumper, as long as it’s not too tight, and used to tow your car. Just make sure the tension is even on both sides of the car and that there is no load on the tow strap when you’re not pulling the car.
