ive had this conversation my self on here, it seems ok to tow short distences, 10mls at no more than 40mph, as i have done,,, but for 80 mls seems to me a bit far, to play safe i would disconnect prop, or take half shaft out, to be safe other wise i belive there is a build up of pressure in gear box causing it to go bang hth

the boss has 2.2 dti cd and when she needs more power(change down a gear) going up hill(long hill) the little light on the dash comes on and power is lost. So you have to stop turn off the engine. Then off you go and its all OK until the next time. Any one had the same thing?

welcome peterf, firstly the gear changes at high revs when cold is quite normal, helps warm the engine up quicker,
secoundly, check the spark plug wells for oil, this indicates leaking cam cover gaskets thus oil on the ht leads ,spark plugs, - which your symptoms sound very likely,
one other question, when was the cam belt done, it should be done every 40k miles without fail, , or it will fail
