Expert Reply:
We have a solution for you to carry your bikes on your 2012 Audi Q5 but, according to Thule the Thule Raceway 3 Bike Rack, # TH9002PRO, will not fit on your vehicle. We have two trunk mount style bike racks that have been confirmed to fit your Q5, the Hollywood Racks Over-the-Top 2, # HRF2, and the Over-the-Top 3, # HRF2-3. I have attached a demonstration video for you to check out.
Another option that I recommend for carrying bikes on your Q5 is to add a trailer hitch and use a hitch mounted bike rack. For your vehicle we carry the Curt Class III Trailer Hitch, # C13136. I have attached the installation instructions for this hitch for you to check out. For a hitch mounted bike rack I would recommend the Thule Helium Aero 3 Bike Rack, # TH9043PRO. The Helium rack is one of our most popular bike racks and would work well on your vehicle.
