The best roof rack I can recommend for your 2018 Audi A6 sedan is going to be the Thule WingBar Evo kit that uses the part numbers # TH711400, # TH710501, and # TH145083. The reasons I recommend this roof rack is because the crossbars are aero shaped which allows them to be super quiet, the rack is very easy to install, and the overall quality and design of the rack is excellent so the rack will fit and work well for a very long time.
I checked with Thule and with this rack installed the... view full answer...
You will first want to check your owners manual or with the Audi dealer to determine if you can use snow tire chains on your 2004 Audi A6 Avant Quattro, or if there are any limitations.
For the 235/45R17 tire size the Glacier Cable Snow Tire Chains, part # PW1038, is the part number you would need for the cable style chains like the part number you have referenced.
I would also recommend the Thule CB12 Snow Chains, part # TH01221100. These are dual-sided, D-shape chain links that give... view full answer...
For your 2016 Audi A6 we have the Curt hitch part # C11423 that is a confirmed fit and would work well for you.
For trailer wiring the best option is the ZCI kit part # 119250KIT which instead of requiring you to hardwire into your veicles trailer wiring uses sensors instead which makes for an easier, less-invasive install.
For a ball mount you'd want the # C45521 which is the recommended ball mount for this hitch. Then for a hitch ball part # A-82 for a 2 inch ball or part # A-80 for... view full answer...
You will not be able to open the trunk of your 2012 Audi A6 with a trunk rack like the Saris Bones part # SA805BL installed. The hinges aren't rated for the additional weight and the struts won't hold the trunk up either so it would come slamming down which would be dangerous, plus the clips that go over the trunk would get pinched as the trunk opens.
Only option is a hitch mounted bike rack which first requires a hitch like the part # C11423 to be installed.

I have a perfect solution for you! Check out the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202. This bike rack has ramps built into the rack to help with loading/unloading, has a higher weight capacity that would easily carry a 52 lb bike, is compatible with bikes with fenders since it secures the bikes by grabbing them by the frame, and is compatible with Class I 1-1/4 inch hitches. I attached a picture that shows this rack carrying bikes with fenders as well.

I do have an option for you but all trunk mounted bike racks like the Thule OutWay 2-Bike Platform Rack part # TH65JV have a 33 lb per bike weight capacity. The cradles for each bike are only rated for 33 lbs so I cannot recommend you use it with a 40 lb bike.
If you cannot get the weight of your bike down to 35 lbs then your best option would be to place it on a hitch mounted bike rack, the Kuat Transfer 1 Bike Platform Rack part # KU64FR with a trailer hitch, the Curt Trailer Hitch... view full answer...
Yes, there is a trailer hitch available for your 2016 Audi A6. I recommend Curt trailer hitch # C11423. This is a Class I trailer hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver.
If you want to use the hitch for an accessory such as a bike rack or cargo carrier then you have to make sure the accessory is rated for use with a Class I trailer hitch. Also, with a bike rack, you are limited to 2 bikes maximum on a Class I hitch.
Curt also says you have to use stabilization strap # 18050 when using this... view full answer...
The Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow 7-, 5- and 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector - Vehicle End - Ergonomic Design, # HM48470, can mount pretty much anywhere you want it to. The most common place is to the left (driver side) of the trailer hitch receiver opening. Based on the design of the trailer hitches for the 2009 Audi A6 Avant, if you were to install it on the bottom of the cross tubing of the hitch, it will be a little below the trailer hitch receiver opening. If this is too low, you can mount... view full answer...
Yes, the Curt hitch part # C11344 has been confirmed as a fit for all models of the 2011 Audi A6 so it would be a great option for your 2011 Audi A6 wagon.

For your 2008 Audi A6 I recommend the Thule OutWay # TH45JV. This carrier is rated for 33 pounds per bike.
I have an older version of this rack and it is by far the easiest trunk mount rack I have ever used. What makes it so easy are the 2 rubber coated straps it uses to attach to the vehicle rather than 6 straps like other carriers.
It also comes with locks for both the rack and the bikes. The arms of this carrier can move independently in and out, up and down to fit a wide variety... view full answer...
We only have one hitch that's a confirmed fit for your 2014 Audi A6, the Curt part # C11423. This hitch does require fascia trimming though.
The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and this one showed up in nearly everyone's top three. Check out the review video I attached for more info.

We don't have that specific info but the Tow Ready wiring kit part # 119178KIT is a confirmed fit for your 2004 Audi A6. The best answer we have at this time is that you'll have to test the taillight circuits of the light to see if you can find the style of taillights and wire the # 119178KIT correctly.
If your vehicle has brake lights that are separate from the turn signals when you look at the rear of the vehicle the red wire gets ran to the dedicated stoplight circuit. view full answer...
What is the purpose for the trailer hitch on your 2018 Audi A6? If it is to tow a trailer then this is not something we can offer as they do not make a trailer hitch that is a confirmed fit for your 2018 Audi A6 which includes the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11423.
If the purpose of the trailer hitch was to carry bikes on a hitch mounted bike rack then you could use a trunk mount bike rack like the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top 3 Bike Rack for Vehicles w/ Spoilers part # HRF2-3... view full answer...
I have to recommend using either a trunk bike rack or a roof mounted system as there is not a receiver available for your 2018 Audi A6 Premium or any A6 trim. I checked with every aftermarket manufacturer and noticed that Audi does not even make a factory receiver for the A6. The receiver you found only fit the 1999-2004 Audi A6's.
A trunk rack like the Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack # TH45JV will be the easiest way to carry 2 bikes up to 33lbs each with your A6. This rack has locks for... view full answer...

Bascially, there is no easy way to convert the European 7-Way to a US 4-Way. We do not carry any kind of adapter that you could use. You are left with 2 options. First, you would install a separate wiring harness which would be the easiest. Or, you could attempt to fabricate an adapter.
You would need to use a converter, # RM-732. The red wire on the input side would attach to the brake light wire on the vehicle wiring. The white wire grounds to the frame. The yellow wire will attach... view full answer...
The best option for your 2011 Audi A6 is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11344. It has a maximum gross trailer weight of 2,000 lbs and maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs. You will need to check your owner's manual to find what your A6 is capable of towing as well. You will be limited by whichever is lower, the hitch capacity or the towing capacity of your vehicle.
Since you will be doing some towing, I recommend the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter with... view full answer...
Based on the measurements you took on your trailer hitch and trailer coupler, you will technically need a ball mount that features a rise of around 8-1/2 inches for a completely level setup. Between the two ball mount options you mentioned, the Curt Class II Drawbar # C45014 will be the better option, as it provides a greater 5 inch rise.
The highest rise ball mount we currently have available that will be compatible with your existing 1-1/4 inch Curt trailer hitch receiver is the Curt... view full answer...
The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11344is a confirmed fit for your 2010 Audi A6.
If you were planning on using the hitch as an attachment point for a bike rack, keep in mind that a bike rack used in a Class I hitch will be limited to carrying two bikes only. You would also need the stabilization strap # 18050 when using the Curt hitch to carry a bike rack or cargo carrier. view full answer...
