I have a similar question, and a request. I purchased a 2018 with the 1.6L diesel. I have ordered the hitch and bezel cover, but would also like to upgrade as many components as possible to those included in the V92 towing package that is available on 2018's with the 2.0L gas engine...
You shouldn’t need to manually shift gears. Once you select L, you shoukd be able to dial up to 9 once to set the range of gears, and it should then basically behave as it does in Drive. Alternately, dial it up to 4, then move it to Drive when you are up to speed. Honestly however, the autostop...
I believe if you put the vehicle into "L" range, and select the highest gear you want to use with the +- combo on the shifter, it will more or less drive normally but will not activate the auto stop function.
I just bought one of these myself and I'm having the dealership install the hitch. Did you make any other upgrades? How has it performed for you towing?
Thanks!
I recently purchased a 2018 with the 1.6L diesel. We plan to tow a small teardrop trailer, at or under 1500lbs per the listed towing specs. I'm having the dealer install the factory hitch, and I will be adding a break controller and 7 pin connection.
I know the 2.0 turbo also has the "V92"...
