Expert Answers about Volkswagen Golf Wagon


  • Recommended Rear Mounted Bike Rack for 2012 Volkswagen Golf Wagon Without a Trailer Hitch
  • According to my research the Golf Wagon was a Canada released Volkswagen model between 2010-2014. The following rear mounted bike racks will be a fit for your 2012 Golf Wagon: # TH65JV # TH45JV # TH56BV All of the racks will include locks and allow you to lock your bike to the rack as well as the rack to the vehicle. If you happen to have an alternative framed bike like many women's bikes do then you will need the use of an adapter bar like # TH982XT for the bikes to mount properly. I...

  • Trailer Hitch for 2011 VW Golf Wagon TDI
  • There is a trailer hitch that fits your 2011 VW Golf Wagon TDI, but the Curt hitch you referenced will not fit the TDI models (additionally, there is no difference between the hitches, the 11474 is simply the replacement for the 11072 so they are just different part numbers). The trailer hitch that does fit your '11 Golf Wagon TDI is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11474, which is a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver, 2,000 lb towing capacity and 200 lb tongue weight capacity...

  • 4-Way Flat Vehicle Wiring Harnesses For a 2013 VW Golf GTI
  • The Curt Tail Light Converter that will fit your 2013 Volkswagen Golf TDI is the Converter # C56236, which will require you to splice into your tail light wiring. The Curt T-Connector # C56374 is only confirmed to fit the following vehicles and not your Golf GTI. 2012 - 2015 Volkswagen Passat 2014 - 2015 Volkswagen Passat 1.8L I4 Engine - Turbocharged 2012 - 2015 Volkswagen Passat 2.0L I4 Diesel Engine - Turbocharged and 3.6L VR6 models 2012 - 2013 Volkswagen Passat 2.5L I5 Engine 2017...

  • Does Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack Have Good Ground Clearance For 2014 VW Golf Wagon
  • So there's a couple things to go over here, starting with the hitch for your 2014 Volkswagen Golf Wagon. This vehicle only has a Class I hitch with a 1-1/4 inch receiver available, the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11474. And with a Class I hitch, you can't use a 4-bike rack, they are limited to 2-bike racks only due to the stress and torque put on the hitch and frame. That means you can use the Destination, but not the 4-bike # HR4000; the one you would need that is compatible with a Class I...

  • 2011 VW Golf Sportwagon Trailer Hitch Recommendation
  • For your 2011 Volkswagen Golf TDI Sportwagen you will want the Curt Class 1 Hitch # C11474 which is a confirmed fit and will work well. I prefer Draw Tite over Curt as Draw Tite does not require a stabilizer strap when carrying a bike rack like Curt does. The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Thule Camber 2 part # TH9058. We asked our demo and install guys to name their favorite, most easy-to-use bike racks and this one showed up in nearly...

  • How to Carry Four Bikes on 2014 VW Golf Wagon
  • So the answers you are referencing are referring to a VW Golf Sportwagen, not a Golf Wagon; this is a different vehicle that debuted in 2015 and has a 2 inch hitch receiver available. Your 2014 VW Golf cannot carry four bikes with a hitch mounted rack, because it only has a Class I hitch available, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C11474. This will allow you to use a 2-bike rack only that is compatible with a Class I hitch, the Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack # HLY94FR. Then in...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness for 2012 Volkswagen Golf Wagon
  • The universal-fit trailer wiring harness that you referenced, part # 119179KIT from TowReady, is indeed a correct fit for your 2012 Volkswagen Golf Wagon. This kit includes the circuit tester required to positively identify the lighting function carried on each vehicle wire to enable you to make the correct connections. Most of the wiring splices will be made at the tail light assemblies with one more required for the 12V power feed for the harness wire that runs to the battery's positive...

  • Will Yakima Front Loader Roof Mount Bike Rack # Y02103 Fit a 2013 Volkswagon Golf Wagon
  • If your 2013 Volkswagen Golf Wagon has either round, square or factory crossbars, the Yakima Front Loader Roof Mount Bike Rack # Y02103 will work for you. If you need a roof rack for your vehicle, providing you have factory installed rails that run front to back, I recommend the Thule WingBar Evo Roof Rack. To order this set you will need the Thule WingBars, part # TH711200 for silver or # TH711220 for black, and the The Evo raised rail feet, part # TH710401.

  • Roof Rack Fit For 2011 Volkswagen Golf Wagon With Raised Side Rails
  • We do have a roof rack solution for you, though I checked with Rhino-Rack about the compatibility of Leg Kit # CXB on your 2011 VW Golf Wagon with raised side rails, and this leg kit is not going to fit your vehicle. There is not a kit that is going to allow you to use the HD bars on your '11 VW Golf wagon, but you can get a brand new rack system for what it would cost to mount your current bars. Instead, I recommend checking out the Malone AirFlow2 Roof Rack # MPG215. The Malone is...

  • Can Tekonsha T-One Wiring Harness # 118572 Be Made Compatible With 2011 VW Golf Wagon
  • The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118572 should be compatible with your 2011 VW Golf Wagon if you hardwire the connections but it has not been tested to confirm. The confirmed fit for your 2011 VW Golf Wagon is the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit # 119250KIT which will give the exact same maximum amperage for the Stop/Turn lights at 4.2 amps and Tail lights at 7.5 amps. The modulates...

  • Would Hitch from 2006 Volkswagen Golf Wagon also Fit 2012 Model
  • There was a large enough difference between the 2006 and 2012 Volkswagen Golf Wagons that a new hitch had to be made so for your 2012 Volkswagen Golf Wagen you'd need to install the Draw Tite hitch # C11474 that you referenced.

  • Is There a 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2013 Volkswagen Golf SportWagon
  • I do have an option for you but the only trailer hitch we offer for a 2013 Volkswagen Golf SportWagon is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11474 which has a class I rating with 1-1/4" receiver opening. It features a bolt-on install without any drilling required. If you have a 2" accessory then you'll have to use an adapter like the Trailer Hitch Adapter part # e93YR or part # e43YR but keep in mind these adapters reduce hitch capacity by 50%. That said, it's your only option as there...

  • Would Thule Aeroblade Edge Roof Rack TH7501-TH7502 Fit 2011 Volkswagen Golf Wagon wo Triming
  • The Thule Aeroblade Edge Roof Rack part # TH7501-TH7502 is a confirmed fit for your 2011 Volkswagen GolfWagen and would not require any trimming to fit. I could not recommend cutting the bars even if the bars were too long since that would void the warranty.
