  • Recommended Hitch for a 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line
  • I checked with Curt, for your 2018 Volkswagen Tiguan SEL R-Line you are going to want the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C13381. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Tiguan with included hardware. VW added some extra trim pieces for the R-Line model. Those will need to be trimmed down significantly for the hitch to be installed. Removing or modifying these trim pieces will not affect the function of your hitch and shouldn't affect the appearance of your VW as the pieces are...

  • Trailer Hitch Solution for 2019 Acura RDX with 19 inch Spare Wheel/Tire
  • I have a solution for you but none of the hitches we offer for your 2019 Acura RDX with Tech Package can be used with a 19 inch spare stored underneath the vehicle. So what your best option would be is replace the spare you have with a smaller one from Acura so that you can then install the Draw Tite hitch part # 76268. For trailer wiring you'd then want the Tekonsha kit part # 118800 and you'd be set with an easy to install trailer wiring harness setup that's also very reliable.

  • Towing Capacity of 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee 3.6L

  • 2019 Toyota RAV4 Towing Capacity and Trailer Connector Needed
  • You will need to consult your owner's manual for confirmation on the towing capacity of your 2019 Toyota RAV4 but the trim package on your vehicle and the engine/transmission will determine the capacity. From what I was able to find with my resources, the RAV4 has a capacity of 1500-lbs for some trims and up to 3500-lbs for others. The Draw-Tite # DT82QR you were looking at is a good choice, but it will not increase the towing capacity of your vehicle even though it has a 675-lb tongue...

  • Trimming Questions About Installing a Hitch on a 2024 Volvo XC60
  • To install the Draw-Tite item # 76194 hitch on a 2024 Volvo XC60 you'll need to cut out a 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" rectangular section off your Volvo's fascia that faces the ground. It's just a thin piece of plastic that extends past your bumper underneath the SUV. Trimming this piece allows the 2" receiver and the safety chain loops to extend below the vehicle and bumper. The only way you will ever see the hole that needs to be cut out is if you lie underneath your Volvo and look up. The Draw-Tite...

  • Can the 2019 Honda CR-V AWD Tow More Than the 2WD?
  • From what I could find, it does look like all trim levels on the 2019 Honda CR-V are limited to 1,500 pounds towing. This can be verified by checking the driver side door jamb. There is a sticker with all capacities the vehicle is rated to. The Draw-Tite # 76128 is technically rated up to 4,500 pounds, but you are limited to the highest capacity of the lowest rated component, which in this case will be the vehicle.

  • Ground Clearance For Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver On a 2019 BMW X5
  • When we installed the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit # SH25VR on a 2019 BMW X5 in our shop we found it to have approximately 11-1/2" of ground clearance with the receiver tube installed. This can vary from vehicle to vehicle depending on tire sizes and trim level. And when you remove the receiver tube it will not affect your ground clearance. I recommend getting the Carrying Case # 391CASEC to hold the ball mount and receiver connections. This will ensure...

  • What is the Difference in the Curt and etrailer Hitches for a 2022 Chevy Colorado?
  • The only difference in the Curt item # C13176 and the etrailer item # e98909 is the finish and the cost. Both hitches are manufactured by Curt to the same standards and specifications. I prefer the etrailer hitch item # e98909 because of its flat matte finish. It tends to blend in better beneath a vehicle's trim then the glossy finish of the Curt item # C13176. Both of these hitches are confirmed to fit the 2022 Chevy Colorado. I have linked a couple of installation videos below so you...

  • Recommended Hitch and Wiring for 2016 BMW 328ix Gran Tourismo
  • The best source for information on whether or not your 2016 BMW 328ix Gran Tourismo can tow this trailer is going to be the owner's manual; the Curt # C11367 has a capacity of 2000-lbs towing/ 200-lbs tongue weight, so it will handle a load that size but I am not able to find conclusive information on the vehicle's towing capacity with any of my sources. Additionally, removing or trimming the heat shield does not affect performance of the vehicle, so there's nothing to worry about in that...

  • How Much Ground Clearance Does the Curt Hitch C11524 For a 2017 Mini Clubman Provide
  • I spoke with Curt about the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11524 for your 2017 Mini Clubman S and they informed me that the receiver tube sits right up underneath the bumper. The distance from the bottom of the bumper to the bottom of the receiver tube is 2". That said, I don't have any distances from the ground because this can vary by trim level and how much of a load is in the vehicle. I have attached an install photo for you as well.
