Expert Answers about Audi Q5


  • Availability of a Trailer Hitch to fit a 2013 BMW 335i M Sports Package Sedan
  • We did have a customer come back and say that they were able to install the Curt Hitch part # C11367 on their 2013 BMW 335i M Sport package sedan. I attached the picture that they send in of it installed. A lot of times Curt will not list certain vehicles as fits just because they weren't able to test the vehicle with it.

  • E-Bike Rack Recommendation for Mid Drive Bosch E-Bike
  • Yes, the Thule EasyFold XT bike rack part # TH903202 that you referenced will work great with your Bosch E-bike that is mid drive. It also has a ramp built into it which will make it very easy to load and unload. The frame style of your bike would easily be secured by this rack too. Check out the review video I attached for more info as well.

  • Replacement Wiring Harness For Tekonsha Prodigy P2 for 2011 Audi Q5
  • The Tekonsha Replacement Brake Control Harness, part # 20127 would wire up to your OEM harness and plug into your Prodigy brake controller. I do not have any details on the wire functions for your OEM harness, but the replacement harness is wired as follows: Red Wire = Brake Stoplight Switch White Wire = Ground Black Wire = 12-Volt Power Blue Wire = Brake Controller Output I'd recommend using a circuit tester like # PTW2993 on the factory wiring to verify...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness Options for 2013 Audi Q5
  • We have trailer wiring options for the 2013 Audi Q5 both with and without the factory tow package. All of these appear on the page I linked for you and they include both hardwired 4-pole flat wiring kits such as the Tekonsha ZCI no-splice 4-pole kit # 119250KIT (which is for the Q5 without tow package).

  • Availability of a Trailer Coupler for a 2-1/2-Inch Hitch Ball
  • Trailer couplers like the Dutton-Lainson # DL13847 that you referenced, which fits 2-inch balls, are available in two other sizes, 1-7/8-inches and 2-5/16-inches. We do not offer any couplers that fit a 2-1/2-inch ball and I could not find any information about this size. It is certainly not in common use today or in recent years. For reference I have linked our main page for couplers, including all three sizes: 1-7/8-inch, 2-inch and 2-5/16-inch. Perhaps it may be that you actually have...

With this rack (and all other roof racks) you'll have to keep the sunroof closed at all times when the rack is installed.

  • Trunk-Mount 2-Bike Rack Recommendation for 2015 Audi Q5
  • The 2015 Audi Q5 has no confirmed fits for trunk-mount bike racks but you do have the option of installing a trailer hitch receiver, the 2-inch Class III # C13136 from Curt that you referenced, and using a hitch-mount rack instead. Hitch-mount bike racks offer the advantage of keeping the rack and bikes' weight off the vehicle's sheet metal. The weight load is instead borne by the car's frame, its strongest part. Also, a hitch means that you can use other hitch-mount items such as a cargo...
