Toyota Repair: dingy towing a 97 corolla, auto tranny, engine running, tow dollies, dingy towing

Question
Hi, we have a specialized circumstance where we may need to tow an automatic transmission 1997 toyota corolla 4 down.  Will leaving the engine idling on this car provide adequate lubrication to protect the tranny, either in neutral or drive?  I can devise an a remote alarm to monitor the engine running, and have idled this car for hours to test the long term idle, which appears bullet proof. thanks.  trading the car and tow dollies or trailers are really not practical in this circumstance. thanks. The real question is technical:is the tranny lubricated while idling?  If overheating is the issue, I can also attach a remote temp sensor on the transmission. thanks in advance

Answer
Ugh. Stop talking. Don't ever do that on anything.
And Corolla's have never been AWD/4WD. It's FWD... It won't matter unless you're towing it backwards.


And if you ever break down an AWD system. It NEVER get's towed. Not a single inch. It get's put in neutral & hauled up a flatbed trailer.
