Expert Answers about Audi Q5


  • Will the Malone Cargo12 Cargo Box Fit My 2019 Audi Q5 with Factory Crossbars?
  • The Malone Cargo12 # MPG901 will be able to fit onto your factory crossbars of your 2019 Audi Q5 as long as the crossbar width is between 1 inch and 3 inches and the height of the crossbars is between 3/4 inches and 1-3/8 inches. In order to know for sure if it will fit, I recommend measuring these dimensions of the crossbars on your vehicle. As far as the Cargo12 allowing you to fully open your rear hatch, you will be able to adjust your crossbars in such a way as to give you enough...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For A 2021 Audi Q5 And 2023 Toyota Highlander Hauling A Motorcycle
  • The Curt 13499 is no longer offered but Curt manufactures all of the etrailer hitches for us so you'd be getting the same thing with the # e94CR, with the only difference being that this hitch comes with a matte black finish. The fitguide can be a bit confusing some times, but the reason for the plug-in / no plug-in clarification is because on some vehicles there are fitment differences between these models. Since the system sections the vehicle this way you'll see the same hitch twice...

  • Passenger Side Taillight not Illuminating After Installing Curt Wiring On Audi Q5
  • It sounds like you have a classic ground issue with the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer part # C56404 on the 2016 Audi Q5. When the wiring harness does not have a good ground connection it will make the functions act erratically. Some functions will illuminate while others won't. I recommend to take a look at your ground connection and make sure it is attached to a clean bare metal surface of the vehicle's frame. Also please keep in mind this wiring harness...

  • Can I Fit 2 Thule Hullavators # TH898 on the Roof of My 2019 Audi Q5?
  • I have a great solution for carrying your 2 kayaks. If you have a factory roof rack on your 2019 Audi Q5, you will not have enough weight capacity in order to transport the 40-pound (each pair) Thule Hullavators # TH898. I did some research on the weight capacity of the factory roof rack on your vehicle, and you only have 165 pounds of capacity. You will be at 80 pounds with the 2 Hulavators mounted, which leaves only 85 pounds for your 2 additional kayaks. Sadly, even if you have flush...

  • Wireless Brake Controller Compatibility with 2014 Audi Q5
  • The now-discontinued Prodigy RF you asked about can have serious issues pairing with European vehicles and while this used to be the only option for a wireless brake controller, that isn't the case anymore and I recommend an alternative that isn't going to have the amount of potential headaches. So long as your 2014 Audi Q5 has the factory tow package the Curt Echo # C51180 will simply plug into the 7-way on the back of your Audi. There is no other wiring needed and the only other thing...

  • Will Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack Fit on a 2020 Audi Q5
  • The Yakima OnRamp Bike Rack # Y36FR requires 5" of clearance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the farthest edge of your bumper to fit properly. According to the different hitch fits we have available for your 2020 Audi Q5 this shouldn't be a problem but if you already have a hitch installed it would be a good idea to check out this measurement on your end just to be on the safe side of things. If you don't already have a hitch installed I recommend picking up the etrailer Trailer...

  • Hitch Step for 2014 Audi Q5
  • The Heininger PortablePET Twistep Hitch Mounted Step # HE3052 can be set to several different heights. This can be seen in the linked video at the :43-second mark. 4 bolts are used to set the platform height. At the lowest height setting the TOP of the platform will be 6-inches below the BOTTOM of the receiver opening. I confirmed this with my contact at Heininger. She also noted that the minimum recommended hitch height above ground is 16-inches. This is from the bottom of the receiver...

  • Solution for Kuat Trio that Hits Rear Lift Gate
  • I am assuming you mean it's hitting the rear hatch/trunk/lift gate when it's open but not when it's closed? Or is it hitting all the time? Have you tried reversing the Kuat Trio part # TR02 on the crossbars of your 2019 Audi Q5?

  • Low Clearance Trailer Hitch Receiver Recommendation for 2021 Audi Q5
  • The closest thing we have to what you're wanting is the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit # 391AUDQ518T for your 2021 Audi Q5, and only because the hitch receiver or ball mount can be removed which leaves you with a completely clear rear bumper. This would be ideal if you only planned on using your bike rack or towing once you get past your bad roads. Since it sounds like you'll be towing and using a bike rack while going over these bad roads you might consider...

It is not meant for use on a vehicle's roof rack crossbars. For a wheel carrier that can install on most aftermarket and factory roof racks you can instead use Thule part # TH98BV or Yakima part # Y02108.

  • Correct Rhino-Rack SRB Legs Fit Flush Roof Rails on 2018 Audi Q5
  • The Rhino-Rack SRB Legs # RRSX031 are designed for other vehicles so you will need to use the Rhino-Rack SRB Legs # RRSX030 instead for the flush rails on your 2018 Audi Q5. To complete this roof rack system you just need the 49" Vortex Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2. I've attached an installation video and photo of this roof rack on a 2018 Q5 for you to check out.

  • Longest Roof Rack Available For a 2017 Audi Q5
  • Typically the factory roof rack set-ups are manufactured by another manufacturer and re-branded as Audi. Whether you would need an entire new set-up would depend on who manufacturers the Audi roof racks. Your best course of action for determining who makes the Audi roof rack would be to contact Audi. If you determine who manufacturers the Audi roof racks, I would be happy to help you determine if we have a solution to use your current towers. Alternatively, the longest crossbars (50")...

  • In order to determine if you would have rear hatch interference on your 2015 Audi Q5 with the Thule Force XXL cargo box part # TH6359B you will need to take one simple measurement.

  • How to Load a 14 Foot Long Kayak on a 2015 Audi Q5 with One Person
  • I do have an option for you but the Thule Hullavator Pro Kayak Carrier part # TH898 will not work with the factory crossbars you have on your 2015 Audi Q5 due to the lack of overhang. Instead, I recommend using the Malone DownLoader Kayak Carrier part # MPG114MD with the TelosXL Load Assist part # MPG351XL. The combination of this j-style carrier with the load assist will easily allow you to load your 14' long kayak on the roof of your Q5 with only one person. As long as you kayak does...

  • Is Trimming Required To Install Stealth Hitches Rack Receiver On a 2018 Audi Q5
  • The Stealth Hitches Rack Receiver part # 391AUDQ518 which is a fit for a 2018 Audi Q5 will not require any cutting or trimming so long as you have the factory center knock-out panel. The 2018+ models should all have the factory center knock-out panel which will allow the hitch opening to show through without additional cutting. I spoke to my rep at Stealth Hitches to confirm this for you. I have attached a photo to assist as well.
