Expert Answers about Audi Q7


  • Parts Needed to Install a Trailer Brake Controller on a 2009 Audi Q7

Trailer brake controllers are universal and can be adapted to fit any vehicle with the correct wiring harness. The correct wiring...

  • Will the Yakima FullBack Fit a 2017 Audi Q7
  • Yes, the Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack part # Y02634 is a fit for your 2017 Audi Q7 and an excellent choice at that. I have attached the fit notes for you on this rack as well as a few install photos. Please note that if any of your bikes have an alternative frame you will also need to use the Yakima Tube Top Bike Adapter Bar part # Y02531. - Outer/lower support frame rests on the lower portion of the license plate or well. When bikes are loaded, re-tension straps to ensure base pads only...

  • Brake Controller and Trailer Wiring For a 2014 Audi Q7 Pulling a Tandem Axle Trailer
  • The Tekonsha ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit Item # 119250KIT that you are looking at is only for the running lights and tail lights on your trailer. It is compatible with the PWM wiring on your 2014 Audi Q7. You will need a 7-Way RV Upgrade Kit # ETBC7L that will carry power for the brakes. Using a Curt Echo Trailer Brake Controller # C51180 will take power from the charge line circuit of the 7-way kit and apply to the...

  • Compatibility of Curt True Course with Curt TriFlex Brake Controller
  • The Curt True Course # C94VV is compatible with the Curt TriFlex brake controller # C24VV. The unit will start helping control sway and the brake controller will still function as intended to give your trailer the braking power it needs. The Curt will let the brake controller function the same way it would without it being connected, so you simply get the benefit of sway control using then together.

  • Is the Tuson Sway Control Compatible with the Curt TriFlex Brake Controller
  • Yes the Tuson Electronic Sway Control System for Electric Trailer Brakespart # 335TSC-1000 is perfectly compatible with the Curt TriFlex Trailer Brake Controller part # C24VV or any other brake controller. While the Tuson does use the trailers brakes this is only in a sway event any other time it is passive and will not effect the operation of the brakes at all.

  • Will the Curt Echo Brake Controller Work With a 5 to 7-Way Adapter
  • The Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180 won't work with an adapter like the Adapter 7 Pole to 5 Pole Flat part # A75TB because the 5th pin on a 5-way is typically for reverse so that's what it would correspond to on the Curt Echo. Therefore, you'd need to replace the 5-way with a 7-way, the Hopkins 7-Pole Round Connector part # H20042.

  • Recommended Weld-On A-Frame Trailer Coupler For A Teardrop Camper Build
  • For your teardrop camper build I recommend the Demco A-Frame Trailer Coupler w/ Jack Hole # DM14791-97 over the Bulldog # BD028386 you were looking at. The latch style of the Demco is much easier and in my own personal opinion a safer design. The eZ-Latch does not need to be tugged or manually activated to allow the ball into the coupler socket, nor does it have to be secured in place. Just make sure that the coupler is properly lined up with the ball when you lower it, and the rest is...

  • Hitch Pin Hole Depth of Curt Hitch for 2019 Audi Q7
  • In regards to the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C13277 for a 2019 Audi Q7, the distance from the collar to the center of the hitch pin is 2.14" and the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the end of the receiver is 4.48" per Curt. Therefore, you will have no issue with the Thule Apex Swing XT Bike Rack for 4 Bikes part # TH9027XT. Unfortunately, we don't have the distance from the center of the hitch pin hole to the outer edge of the bumper but based on customer install...

  • Reducing Sway of Trailer Towed by 2018 Audi Q7
  • Your 2018 Audi Q7 and the hitches that fit your vehicle are not rated for weight distribution so you wouldn't be able to use a kit but you could use a friction sway control unit like the # 83660 that you referenced which would do a great job reducing sway from passing semis and high winds. The other thing you can do to reduce sway is by moving any cargo weight in the trailer and move it forward as that's typically what causes sway.

  • Correct Curt Trailer Hitch for a 2007 Audi Q7 for Bike Rack
  • The correct Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver for a 2007 Audi Q7 is indeed part # 13220 which is a custom fit so no drilling into the vehicle is required and it has a hidden design for a very nice, clean finished install look. If you are looking to use the hitch for a bike rack and don't already have one, the Thule Hitching Post Pro part # TH934XTR is what I recommend as it offers the best value.

  • Can Weight Distribution be Used with a 2007 Audi Q7
  • The hitches that are available for the 2007 Audi Q7 are not rated for use with weight distribution. They were not designed or tested for that application so you will want to avoid using weight distribution. Sometimes a hitch is not rated for it because the vehicle is not. I was unable to find an online copy of the owner's manual for the 2007 Audi Q7 so I cannot verify whether or not the vehicle is rated for it. If you want to go ahead and do some towing anyway I recommend etrailer ball...

  • Titan Tire Chains # TC2828CAM Seem to Fit Too Loose on 275/45-20 Tires on 2007 Audi Q7
  • Thank you for your recent purchase of two pairs of Titan Chain Snow Tire Chains # TC2828CAM. These chains do fit your specified 275/45-20 tire size, which is in the middle of the range of sizes these chains will fit. All tire chains are designed to fit more than one tire size, so it is not unusual for variances in fit - the slightly loose hold even after the cams are tightened. First make sure that when you apply the chains that they are centered on the tires from left-to-right. This...

  • Is There a Plug In Brake Controller for a 2015 Audi Q7
  • I do have an option for you but the square pigtail that you have found under your dash is not for a brake controller as there is not a plug-in brake controller port on this vehicle to the best of my knowledge so the Hayes Genesis Trailer Brake Controller part # HA81790 won't work without splicing therefore your best option would be to go the wireless route, the Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180 which is the best in this category. The Echo just plugs into the 7-way...

  • Will the Sportrack Vista # SR7018 Fit My 2017 Audi Q7?
  • Since the Sportrack Vista # SR7018 requires crossbar spreads of 23-5/8 inches, 25-7/8 inches, 27-7/8 inches, and 29-7/8 inches, it will be able to fit onto the roof of your 2017 Audi Q7 if you have factory crossbars. Your roof does have enough crossbar spread to accommodate the Vista. However, you will need a crossbar system to mount the Vista. If you have a factory crossbar system, the Vista will be able to clamp onto your crossbars as long as your crossbars do not exceed 4 inches in width....
