Expert Answers about Audi A4


  • Recommended Hitch for 2011 Audi A4 Avant Quattro Wagon
  • The only hitch that will fit on the 2011 Audi A4 Avant Quattro Wagon is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11195, which will provide you with a 1-1/4" receiver for carrying a bike rack or light towing. If you don't already have a bike rack, I've gone ahead and linked all of the racks that can be used in the 1-1/4" Class I receiver.

  • Can I Use the Malone SteelTop Crossbars on a 2008 Audi A4 With Naked Roof
  • The Malone SteelTop Roof Rack part # MPG202 does require factory raised side rails to install; so it will not fit on your Audi A4's naked roof. If you want more room, or space to mount accessories on the bars I recommend Rhino Rack roof rack system, consisting of part # RRVA118B-2, aero cross bars in black or part # RRVA118S-2 for aero bars in silver, part # RRRLKVA, the Rhino Rack 2500 series legs, and part # DK031 the custom fit kit for your Audi. This roof rack system has 46" long...

  • Recommended Hitch for 2009 Audi A4 Avant Wagon
  • I was able to confirm with Curt that the correct hitch for the 2009 Audi A4 Avant Wagon is the Curt Class I Round Tube Receiver Hitch # C11195, which will provide you with a 1-1/4" Class I receiver on your vehicle. If you're going to be towing a light weight trailer with this hitch you'll also need trailer wiring and a ball mount/hitch ball combo. For the wiring I recommend using the Tekonsha # 119250KIT because we've found that the converter boxes on the Tekonsha kits are a bit more...

  • Does Curt Hitch C11448 Fit a 2017 Audi A4 All Road
  • We do offer a 1-1/4-inch light-duty Class I hitch for the 2017 Audi A4 Allroad. My technical contact at Curt confirmed that their Class I hitch # C11448 is a fit and will work well. If you are planning on towing I recommend a ball mount like part # C45019. This ball mount has a 5/8 inch rise or 1-1/4 inch drop and measures 9-3/4 inches long. For a hitch pin and clip you can use part # F-4. For a 1-7/8 inch hitch ball I recommend part # C40001 and for a 2-inch ball I recommend part # C40018....

  • Best Way to Haul 3 bikes on a 2009 Audi A4 Avant
  • I do have a few different solutions for you to be able to carry three bikes on your 2009 Audi A4, but using a hitch mounted 3 bike rack is not the way we want to approach this. The reason that using a 3 bike rack is not advisable on a Class I hitch has to do with the weight distribution. Any bike rack that holds more than two bikes tends to stick out a little further from the hitch to accommodate the three bikes. If we load a 3rd bike on a Class I hitch it could end up doing some damage...

  • I don't show the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 306-X7324 listed as a fit for a 2012 Audi A4 Avant Wagon but I do have an option that is, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11195.

  • Roof-Mounted Bike Rack for 2012 Audi A4 Avant With Factory Crossbars
  • The part # Y20150 you referenced is the Replacement Head Unit for Yakima Viper Bike Rack so it will fit the Viper rack. That rack is only designed to fit round and square crossbars and based on my research your 2012 Audi A4 has aero bars so the Viper rack - and thus this head unit - would not fit. If you are looking for a bike rack for your '12 Audi A4 Avant I recommend checking out the Yakima ForkLift # Y02098. I confirmed with Yakima that this bike rack does fit your Audi's factory...

  • How To Carry 4 Bikes On a 2008 Audi A4 Avant Wagon
  • The only trailer hitch available for a 2008 Audi A4 Avant Wagon is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11180 which mounts to the same holes used to secure the exhaust hanger brackets. That said, this hitch only has a class I rating so the maximum number of bikes that can be carried is two. The Hollywood Racks Trail Rider 2 Bike Platform Rack part # HR200Z is a great option. The other bikes would need to be carried on the roof with a roof rack like the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack part...

  • Does Trailer Hitch for 2013 Audi A4 Require Fascia Trimming for Installation
  • Both the Draw-Tite # DT24950 and the Curt # C11186 Class I trailer hitches (which are the only ones offered for your Audi) do require the trimming of some fascia to install on your 2013 Audi A4. You can find the exact cutout dimensions in the linked installation instructions for each. Since this is the case you may be able to tow a small trailer or a small sail boat but you will be limited to only carrying 2 bikes as Class I trailer hitches aren't able to handle the weight that is placed...

  • Trailer Hitch Recevier For 2002 Audi A4 Wagon For Bike Rack
  • There is a trailer hitch receiver option for your 2002 Audi A4 wagon, but only a 1-1/4, Class I hitch, as there were no 2 inch hitches ever made to fit this vehicle. So while you can add a hitch, it does have to be the 1-1/4 inch, Class I hitch from Curt: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 11164 I recognize this isn't exactly what you were looking for, but it is the only hitch option for your Audi, and it does also require a Class I-compatible bike rack.

  • Can Hitch Extension Be Used with Thule Hitching Post Pro 4 Bike Rack Part TH934XTR
  • It sounds like your 2017 Audi A4 is the 5-door Allroad hatchback version. The Thule Hitching Post Pro Folding/Tilting 4 Bike Rack # TH934XTR does tilt a full 45-degrees as shown in the linked photo. If this does not allow your rear hatch to clear the rack you could use a hitch extension like # HTAD to give you more clearance BUT please note that use of any such hitch adapter will cause you to lose HALF of your hitch's rated tongue weight (TW) capacity. The hitches made for your A4 are...

  • Will the Saris Solo 1 Bike Rack Fit a 2007 Audi A4 Sedan
  • According to Saris, the Solo 1 Bike Rack, # SA102, will fit your 2007 Audi A4 Sedan. This bike rack can support 1 bike up to 35 lbs. If you will be carrying a women's or alternative frame bike without the traditional horizontal top tube, then I strongly recommend picking up the Saris Bike Beam Adapter, # SA3040. Bikes with angled frames can cause ground clearance problems, especially on cars that have lower ground clearance than SUVs and vans. This adapter will allow you to mount your bike...

  • I have confirmed with the manufacturer that the Rhino-Rack Ski and Snowboard Carrier # RR576 will fit your Rhino-Rack without an issue. There will be sufficient usable space on the roof rack crossbar to successfully mount the ski and snowboard rack. This is a really nice carrier that can secure up to 6 pairs of skis or 4 snowboards.

  • Does the Stealth Hitch for 2010 Audi A4 Quattro Also Fit the Avant Wagon
  • I have a solution for you, but Stealth has not confirmed the fit of the # 391AUDA4A5S5T on the Avant wagons, so it's likely not going to be a good option for you. Instead you can use the Curt # C11195, which is a confirmed fit on the 2010 Audi A4 Quattro Avant. This hitch has a 1-1/4" receiver and offers a no-drill installation.

And again yes, the only hitch receiver we have available for your 2011 Audi A4 Avant is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11195 which is a Class I hitch receiver.

  • Trailer Hitch for a 2008 Audi A4 Quattro Sedan
  • Yes, the trailer hitch that fits your 2008 Audi A4 Quattro sedan is the Curt Class-I # 11164. The maximum tongue weight is 200 pounds. Note, that all non-trailer loads such as bike racks, cargo carriers and more must be supported by stabilizing straps like # 18050. If not, you will void the hitch warranty from Curt. I included a installation video on a older Audi A4 and a couple informative articles for you to view.
