General Can I tow a caravan with a Fiat Ulysse 2L Automatic Petrol?

[Liam Jennings]

Hi - having recently purchased a 53 plate petrol 2L automatic Ulysse I am now wondering whether it will tow my caravan? Can it?

my manual 2l happily pulls my 6 berth twin axle caravan, not terribly fast it must be said tho; have a look here http://www.caravanningnow.co.uk/caravanning/faqweight.htm

Thanks - I was more worried whether the automatic gearbox could be ok?

it'll be a lot smoother than a manual but certainly an auto will get hot when towing, i used to have an old Pug 505 auto that had an oil cooler for the box. no idea if yours has one or how it would fit. maybe a caravan forum might help.
