2020 Audi Q5 What Can I Do If OEm Crossbars Are Not Level?
Question:
Hello - I have 2020 Audi Q5. The OEM cross bars are not level and my bike rack points awkwardly upwards. See pic. Do these or any other flush cross come in different heights to compensate for the slanted roof line ? TH89FE,TH89SC

Expert Reply:
All of the roof racks we carry for your vehicle will use the same tower assembly for all four towers. For example the Thule roof rack consisting of the Wingbars # TH711320, Foot pack # TH710601 and fit kit # TH186045. All four of the # TH710601 towers are the same height. So if the curvature of the roof causes the OEM crossbars to be slightly uneven, this will also be the case with an aftermarket roof rack. Unfortunately there is no work around.
