Expert Answers about Mercedes-Benz E-Class
- Can the Curt Hitch # C11001 Work with my JetSki Trailer on My 2011 Mercedes E-350 Sedan?
- While the Curt Hitch - 1-1/4" # C11001 definitely has enough gross towing weight capacity for your 780-pound JetSki and 500-pound trailer, you also need to consider the tongue weight of your setup. The tongue weight is the vertical weight that is exerted on the hitch. This number is important because the # C11001 only allows for a maximum of 200 pounds of tongue weight.
In order to get an accurate reading, I recommend using a tongue weight scale like our etrailer Tongue Weight Scale for...

- Typically when a note is added to a "Sport Package" version of a vehicle, like your 2009 Mercedes-Benz E-350 4Matic, it's because either the exhaust is in the way or there is a lot of rear fascia trimming that needs to take place for the trailer hitch to fit properly. When I reached out to my contact at Curt he said that the exhaust on your vehicle wouldn't be an issue so there is likely a bit of fascia that needs to be trimmed.
If you are willing to do some trimming for the Curt Trailer...

- Nope, the AeroBlade Edge roof rack on your 2015 Mercedes-Benz E63 Wagon isn't wide enough to fit both a bike rack and the Thule Vector Alpine Rooftop Cargo Box # TH613501.
That will be true of any rooftop box with that roof rack though so to use your bike rack and the Vector Alpine # TH613501 you'd also have to get a new roof rack, the Thule WingBar Evo Crossbars # TH711220 and Raised Rail Feet # TH710401.

- The only trailer hitch option available for a 2012 Mercedes-Benz E350 is class I, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11001. Therefore, the max number of bikes you can carry on the rear is two with a rack like the Thule Camber 2 Bike Rack part # TH9058.
If you need to carry more bikes you will need to place them on the roof with a roof rack of which some options are attached below.

- The Swagman XTC4 4-Bike Carrier, part # S64665, you referenced, is designed to be used on a Class lll hitch.
Your 2010 Mercedes E350 is rated for a class l hitch, so you would need to make certain you consider a class l bike carrier. Although there are a few 4 bike carriers that will fit a class l hitch, when a class l hitch is installed, only 2 bikes can be carried. Keep in mind that any carrier you wish to consider for your Mercedes needs to be a class l carrier.
You will need to determine...
view full answer... - Can I Attach A Hitch Cargo Carrier To A Trailer Hitch On A 2012 Mercedes-Benz E-Class Sedan
- I do have a solution for you that would not require a trailer hitch adapter, meaning you can carry up to 200 lbs on the tongue of your trailer hitch. This is the maximum tongue weight for the trailer hitch compatible with your 2012 Mercedes-Benz E-Class, part # C11001. The tongue weight will include the weight of the carrier and the items you will be carrying. The 20x47 Reese Cargo Carrier for 1-1/4" Hitches - Steel - 300 lbs, part # 63155, weighs about 44 lbs, leaving you with 156 lbs...

- I have tired out numerous tire chain styles and designs but none have been easier to install than the Thule Self-Tensioning, Low-Pro chains # TH04115102. Basically all you do is place the chains around the tire and then activate the center tensioning element by stepping down on the built-in pedal. I have linked a video review of these chains for you.
Be sure to consult the vehicle owners manual for additional information on the use of tire chains. I have also linked a couple of helpful...

- Yes, you can carry three bikes with your 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class coupe without having to use a trailer hitch receiver. All that you need is a trunk-mounted 3-bike rack, and for one that fits I recommend the Saris Bones EX 3-Bike Rack # SA803.
I really like this rack because it has high-quality cradles which support your bikes at three different points to ensure they don't contact each other - or your Mercedes. The Bones EX is also a great option because it has rubber feet as well as...

- I spoke with Curt and they stated the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11454 may fit your 2017 Mercedes-Benz E400 Wagon but they have not yet had the chance to test fit this so they cannot yet confirm. Please note that if you are able to confirm fit of this hitch on your E400 Wagon then you will also need to use the Curt Cam Buckle Stabilizing Strap part # 18050 for all non-towing applications.
If you can tell me what you are wanting to use a trailer hitch for then I may have a better...

- We do not yet show any confirmed Class I hitch fits for the 2017 Infiniti QX30 but Curt offers a 2-inch Class III hitch, part # C13197, which also fits the 2015 - 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class. This hitch does not fit your E-Class, however.
We do have a 1-1/4-inch Class I hitch for the 2017 Mercedes-Benz E-300 sedan, part # C11454.

view full answer... - Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2014 Mercedes Benz E350 Coupe
- I reached out to the biggest suppliers of trailer hitches, and neither Curt or Cequent (the maker of draw-tite, reese and hidden hitch) have a fit for your 2014 Mercedes Benz E350 Coupe. So, unfortunately I don't have a trailer hitch receiver that is a confirmed fit for your vehicle. If I can help you with a trunk mounted bike rack or a roof rack to meet your needs, please let me know and I'd be happy to make a recommendation.

view full answer... - Does Curt Hitch part # C11001 Fit a 2012 Mercedes Benz E-350 Sedan
- The Curt hitch part # C11001 is a fit for your 2012 Mercedes E-350 Sedan since it is not a Sport Package vehicle. There is drilling involved to install the hitch.
When you install an aftermarket part on your vehicle like a trailer hitch in this case, you are protected by the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act. This act states, in part, that unless the installation and the part caused a problem then the warranty cannot be voided. I recommend looking it up online.
view full answer... - Is the Curt # C11701 Trailer Hitch Confirmed to Fit a 2006 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
- Yes, the Curt Class I Trailer Receiver Hitch, # C11701, is confirmed to fit a 2006 Mercedes-Benz E350 Wagon or E55 AMG.
If are planning to use the hitch for non-trailer loads like a bike rack or cargo carrier, the Curt requires the use of a stabilizer strap, like # 18050, with these accessories. The strap is used for extra support and if not used will void the hitch warranty.
I have included a video of the Curt being installed in a 2003 E-Class for you to review the installation of this...

This bike rack will fit both the coupe and the sedan models.
For reference, I will include a link to the installation instructions for the rack and an installation video. You can find the link below.

- The correct trailer hitch for your 2008 Mercedes-Benz E350 Wagon is the Curt # C11701 which is a Class I trailer hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver. While we don't have any installation videos of this hitch on your specific vehicle, we do have the installation instructions which I have attached for you to check out.
If you are familiar with installing hitches then Curt says this should take you about 30 minutes, otherwise for a novice it'll be about 1 hour which really isn't that bad.

- If your 2008 Mercedes-Benz E350 is either the sedan (not sport model) or wagon model then the trailer hitch that will fit is the Curt # C11701. This hitch has a 1-1/4 inch receiver. There is not a 2 inch trailer hitch available for your vehicle at this time. I have the installation instructions attached.
Since there is not a 2 inch receiver for your vehicle, the Thule T2 Pro Platform for 2 Inch Receivers # TH83JV that you referenced will not fit.
