To install a brake controller on your 2007 Audi A4 Avant Quattro you would need the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7.
Since you already have a 4-flat connector, you wouldn't need anything else; this kit comes with a 4 pole to 7 pole adapter to make the transition you asked about. Then for a brake controller I recommend the Prodigy P2 # 90885.
This is a proportional brake controller, so when you activate the brakes on your Audi, the trailer's brakes will... view full answer...
You are correct that there is only a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver # C11195 available for your Audi A4 Wagon. You are also correct that when using a 1-1/4" receiver that you are limited to a 2 bike rack. I have a solution for you to carry 4 bikes, but using a hitch extender or adapter like the # HTAD reduces the tongue weight capacity of your hitch by 50%, so it will not be a good option. Your best bet is going to be carrying 2 bikes on a rack and 2 on the roof, using a roof rack... view full answer...
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:

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. There are quality options for a Class... view full answer...
Although the exterior body components of the 2005.5 and later model years of the Audi A4 Avant may be similar, or even the same, the frame structures are not. If you compare the mounting flanges for these two hitches, parts # 11164 and # C11180, you will note that the mounting points for hitch # C11180 are vertical (meaning the bolts will be oriented in an up-down direction) while the hardware for hitch # 11164 installs to the spare tire well in a horizontal direction.
Both of these light-duty... view full answer...
We do have aero-style roof racks to fit your 2017 Audi A4 Sedan from makers like Thule, Yakima and Inno. All of them appear on the linked page.
If it were my car and my money I would select the Inno Flush rack made of parts # INXB100-108, # INXS200 and # INK481. This rack system is shown in the linked installation video. On your car the bars will have a spread of 26-inches, wide enough for excellent stability for whatever items you load on them, and a weight capacity of 120-lbs total.

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... view full answer...
The Thule OutWay Trunk Mounted Bike Rack part # TH9002PRO that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2015 Audi A4.
The fit tips are:
Place top clips in the gap at the front edge of the top of the trunk, hatch or door.
Place lower clips in the bottom edge of trunk or hatch.
Lower arm of carrier should be positioned on upper tier of bumper. view full answer...
We have a hitch that will fit the Audi A4 Avant Wagon, Including Quattro models. The Curt Class I Trailer Hitch Receiver with Drawbar, item # 11195, is the correct hitch for your vehicle, and I have included instructions for you to review.
The Draw-Tite Class I Trailer Hitch Receiver, item # DT24950, you have referenced is not designed to fit the Audi A4 Avant. It will only fit the sedan model.
Some items you may also need to complete your towing setup are listed below.

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... view full answer...
The Thule OutWay Platform Bike Rack # TH65Jv is confirmed to fit your 2005 Audi Avant. However, it only has a maximum weight capacity of 33 pounds per bike. So I can't recommend using it to carry your two Electra Townie Go! bikes weighing over 50 pounds each. Also, like you said, the top clamps will likely not reach the tubes of the bikes.
Instead I recommend adding a roof rack using the Malone # MPG202. Then you can use two of the RockyMounts BrassKnuckles Roof Mounted Bike Rack #... view full answer...
My technical contact at Curt Manufacturing confirmed that their Class I 1-1/4-inch trailer hitch # C11169 will not fit the Audi Cabriolet model. The frame structure of this convertible differs from the sedan and is not able to accept this or any other trailer hitch that we know of.
I also checked with several other trailer hitch manufacturers, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch and Reese, and unfortunately none of these brands offers any hitch for your vehicle.

The Thule Sidearm Wheel-Mount Bike Carrier TH594XT is not compatible with the Thule XADAPT9 Load Bar Adapter for Echelon, Peloton and Prologue Bike Racks # THXADAPT9 because of it's head assembly. This system is limited to certain bike rack models, but the vast majority are not compatible with the t-slots.
If you are interested in a bike rack that is easy to install and has the locking functions, I recommend the Yakima FrontLoader Wheel Mount Bike Carrier # Y02103. I've attached videos... view full answer...
You may be able to have a receiver fabricated using the Weld-On 2" Receiver # E17 as I do not see anyone fabricates a custom fit receiver for your 2008 Audi A4 Quattro Wagon. You will want to contact a fabrication shop in your area and have them inspect your A4 to determine if there is enough structure to be able to fabricate a receiver.
If you are able to get a receiver fabricated I recommend installing the Tekonsha ZCI 4-Way # 119250KIT harness. This uses sensors which are placed around... view full answer...
Yes, our Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11448 is the Curt part number 11448. I reached out to Curt as we do not have any of these in our warehouse to confirm the measurement. They informed me the mounting bolt hole measurement is spread 12-1/2" on center for the mounting holes in the trunk area of your 2021 Audi A4. view full answer...
The Curt # C11448 and Draw-Tite # DT24950 receivers for your 2021 Audi A5 Sportback Hybrid are going to mount in the same under trunk locations. While the Curt does only have the one center section the mounts on the Draw-Tite are placed on separate arms with the mounting holes being in the same place on both.
If you are worried about mounting to the trunk drain holes the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # 391AUDA417 is going to be a better choice. This receiver mounts behind the bumper... view full answer...
The Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver # 391AUDA4A5S509 is currently the only receiver that is confirmed to fit your 2013 Audi S4. The EcoHitch # 306-X7324 is only confirmed to fit the A4 Allroad. This Stealth hitch can only be used with hitch mounted accessories. You can add the Towing Kit # 391CONVA5 down the road if you decide later you will need to tow a trailer. Or we have them available as a Set # 391AUDA4A5S5T if you would rather get it all now. view full answer...
The Avant version of the 2003 Audi A4 is the wagon version, so the Curt Mfg. trailer hitch, # 11164, will fit on your vehicle. we have a link to the installation instructions that I attached for you to review.
The Curt Class I receiver hitch is rated by the manufacturer for towing trailers up to 2,000 lbs maximum, fully loaded and ready to travel, and with a maximum tongue weight of 200 lbs.
You will also need trailer wiring. If your trailer has a 4-Way connector the you will use part... view full answer...
For these items, the intent is for them to buckle inside a cargo basket. A roof basket like the Rola Mounted Basket, part # 59504 would let you use it. The Rhino Rack Rooftop Carrier Bag, part # RRLB350, only has straps long enough to connect to a roof basket, not all the way around and through the inside of the vehicle or even around just the factory roof rails.
A better solution for you would be a bag that outright mounts to your existing roof rack, such as the Rightline Gear Ace Jr.... view full answer...
Unless you have done some modifications that would put your exhaust in the way of the Draw-Tite Sportframe Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT24950 (see attached photo) you should be good to go.

If you let me know what you will be using it for I can make some recommendations for you. view full answer...
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... view full answer...
