Perfect for light-duty towing, this custom, vehicle trailer hitch receiver features fully welded, gloss powder coated steel construction. Drawbar sold separately.It looks like a child packed this hitch mount! Let's just throwca heavy steel part, in a cardboard box, with no padding whatsoever! Could you care any less etrailer
Great price, quick shipping and excellent service. The hitch is solid quality and had it installed by my mechanic. Perfect for my bike rack behind a Audi A4 Avant. I would suggest an adapter with the 4 1/2 rise to prevent bottoming out of the bike rack with cars that are low to the ground.
Working great. I use it for a bike rack on my Audi Allroad. Two person install, took about 2 hours. Very helpful to have wheel ramps.
Fast shipment, easy, clean install with basic tools on my 2015 Audi Allroad Premium plus. Recommend ramps to elevate the rear and a floor jack to hold the hitch and move it into position if you’re doing this solo.
Only downside is that I couldn't find a cargo carrier with a 1.25 inch connector to fit this hitch. They all have 2 inch connectors, so I had to get an adapter...which causes the cargo carrier to be farther from the car and almost too low to drive with. This hitch is probably better for bike carriers.
I use this hitch primarily for a hitch carrier. I am a Hunter and would not want to place harvested game inside of my Audi. This rack allows me to keep the game animals out of the vehicle while being transported to the processor. I also use it to transport power yard tools and gasoline. I can place chain saws, weed eaters, hedge trimmers, etc. on the rack and not worry about spilled oil or gasoline smelling up the inside of the car. Just remember not to overload the recommended tongue weight and slow down over road irregularities such as railroad tracks etc.

Still loving it.
Install is a bit challenging as you have to lower the exhaust and figure out a way to lift the heavy receiver into place while navigating very tight tolerances on the bolts and fishwire, but once in a very study and seamless OEM looking install. Providing two extra fishwires would be a good idea in case you bend one.
I have had the trailer hitch for one year. I had it installed at my local auto shop and they did a good job. I use the hitch to hold my bike rack. I haven't experienced any problems with it. It's easy to attach the bike rack, and it's very secure.
I have a 2013 Audi allroad. This hitch fits great, though it took me a lot longer than 2 hours to install. I’ve installed 3 hitches on other cars so I have some experience. The instructions that come with the hitch from Curt are not perfect and could use more detail. Also, for my model year at least, the rear bumper fascia bolts do not need to be removed. In fact if you do, you need to put them back before mounting the hitch because the hitch blocks the screw holes. You also need to lower the exhaust system - a lot. To get it back in place you will need to jack it up to get it re-attached. Last thing - the bolts that Curt supply could have been longer, there was barely enough thread to attach the nuts. You need to cut out an opening in the heat shield, not just punch a hole in it. I needed help from two others to hold the hitch in place while threading the nuts. I’ve installed the Eco-Hitch on a VW where I needed to remove the rear number assembly and cut out a piece of the bumper. That was an easier job than this.
My hitch was a bit delayed after ordering. I received an email letting me know it would be delayed and an estimated ETA. What a pleasant surprise! A second email arrived with an update and tracking info. Excellent communication. I can't express how great the buying experience has been. Highly recommend etrailer.
As for hitch, this is my second Curt. Haven't installed yet but looks great and I am confident
I will have no issues.
Product wasn't as easy to self install on an 2013 Audi A4 All Road. Luckily there was a Curt hitch installer at a local garage. The product had to be straightened out a little bit. Tabs bent very little from shipping. Good product. Etrailer provided great customer service when I had questions. Thank you.
Our receiver hitch is working great. Installed it on an Audi Allroad and use it with a Kuat Sherpa tray style bike rack. Use it all the time and love it.
I was directed to etrailer by the local hitch installer. etrailer had the parts I needed in stock, and each was delivered on time. The parts were professional installed and allowed me to attach my bike rack.
I've yet to install the receiver on my car, but delivery was very prompt, as etrailer.com expedited shipping at no additional cost. I look forward to following back up with pictures of the receiver installed.
Hitch was packaged properly and arrived in the expected time. Install was fairly easy. No unsightly modifications to the vehicle.

top notch, works as expected
Easy installation - even for a complete newb like me. Strongly recommend reading the instructions before hand and understanding what's needed as far as tools (they're listed specifically).
Can't recommend etrailer higher enough - the ease of shopping on their website, price point, free and FAST shipping, superior communication, and product quality.
Relatively easy install. Excellent instructions. Just plan on having an extra set of hands or some sort of support to hold the hitch in place while bolting it up.
Super easy to order. Great tracking and follow-up from the team at etrailer. Fit as expected. Thanks
Installation was a breeze with basic hand tools. The fish wire in particular is a very neat inclusion in the install package.
Thank you for your excellent service , we are a small family business and very much appreciate the promptness of the arrival of your products
As described, good instructions, straightforward install. Thank you!
