Expert Answers about Acura TSX


  • Can you Carry a Kayak on the SportRack Frontier Roof Rack on a 2011 Acura TSX Wagon
  • Typically we recommend using a kayak carrier when hauling a kayak on a roof rack, but you can certainly load your kayak directly on the SportRack Semi-Custom Roof Rack, # SR1099, on your 2011 Acura TSX wagon. If you will not be using a kayak carrier, then you will want to be sure the kayak is strapped to each crossbar and be sure you are using bow and stern tie downs to keep the kayak from sliding forward and backward. I would recommend using a kayak carrier like the Rightline Gear Kayak...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2018 Toyota Camry
  • For your 2018 Toyota Camry you will want the Curt Trailer Hitch item # C11576. No hitches from a 2005 Acura will fit on a 2018 Camry. The width is different and the bolt holes are not going to line up. The Curt Trailer Hitch item # C11576 is custom fit and bolts to your Camry with included hardware. It is a class I hitch with a 1-1/4" receiver. It has a 2,000 lbs towing capacity, and a 200 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have linked an installation video below.

  • Are the Rhino-Rack 2500 Legs and Fit Kit Compatible with a 2004 Acura TSX
  • To install a Rhino-Rack roof rack on your 2004 Acura TSX you will need to utilize the DK Fit Kit 2500 # DK008 that you referenced. You will also need legs and crossbars as well. I am not sure what brand of kayak carrier that you have so I cannot guarantee that it will be compatible with any crossbar style, but I do recommend going with the Vortex Aero Crossbars, part # RRVA118S-2 for Silver or part # RRVA118B-2 for Black, along with the 2500 Series Legs # RRRLKVA. The Aero design of the...

  • Trailer Wiring Harness Recommendation for 2011 Acura TSX Sport Wagon

  • Will the Curt Trailer Hitch C11496 Fit a 2011 Acura TSX Sport Wagon
  • The Curt trailer hitch # C11496 fits all styles of the 2011 Acura TSX including the Sport Wagon. I checked with my contact at Curt to be sure. The hitch does not include the recommended ball mount, part # 3593. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch ball use # 19258. For trailer wiring use # C59496.

  • Curt Trailer Hitch for a 2010 Acura TSX Sedan
  • There seems to be some sort of mix up because trailer hitch # C11085 is designed to fit the 2011 to 2014 Acura TSX Sport Wagon, not the sedan. The proper hitch for a 2010 Acura TSX sedan is # C11496. And it does appear to stick out a bit as you can see in the video I have linked. If you plan on doing some towing the correct ball mount is # C45521. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19256 and for a 2 inch ball use # 19258. For trailer wiring you can use # C55502.

  • Yes, you will be able to use the Thule Doubletrack Pro XT bike carrier, # TH92BJ, in a Class I trailer hitch on the back of your 2007 Acura TSX, as long as you stay within the tongue weight capacity of the bike rack, trailer hitch and vehicle frame.

  • Recommendation For Bike Rack Compatible With 1-1/4 Inch Class I Hitch on 2006 Acura TSX
  • The item you referenced, Hidden Hitch Class I 1-1/4 Inch Hitch, part 60831 is no longer available. I would recommend going with the Curt Class I 1-1/4 Inch Hitch, part # C11455, as it is similar design to part # 60831 and has the same load capacity. For a compatible bike rack for a 1-1/4 Inch Hitch, I would recommend the Thule Camber 2 Bike Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting - Steel # TH9058, which carries 2 bikes and works with both 1-1/4 or 2 Inch hitches. The Camber bike rack...

  • Is the Hopkins Backup Sensor System Part # HM60100VA Easy to Install
  • Yes, the Hopkins Backup Sensor System part # HM60100VA can be installed on your 2011 Acura TSX but the term easily will be relative to your experience and I cannot speak on that. It will be easy for some and hard for others which all depends on your experience. Unfortunately, we have not yet installed this unit on a Acura TSX so I would not have step by step instructions but if you take a look at the install video on a similar vehicle, you can get a better idea of what all is needed.

  • Will the Thule Doubletrack Bike Rack Fit on a 2012 Acura TSX Sport Wagon
  • The Thule Doubletrack Pro XT Bike Rack, # TH92BJ, will work well with your 2012 Acura TSX Sport Wagon as long as you have a trailer hitch installed on your TSX. Since this is a hitch mount bike rack, a trailer hitch is required to mount the bike rack to your vehicle. If you do not have a trailer hitch installed on your TSX, then I recommend installing the Curt Class I Trailer Hitch, # C11496. Other than the trailer hitch, you will not need any other items to use this bike rack with your...

  • Will a Linus Dutchi Fit on the Thule Passage 3 Trunk Mount Bike Rack
  • Because of the alternative frame design on the Linus Dutchi you would need to use an adapter bar, # TH982XT, to mount the bike to the Thule Passage bike rack # TH911XT. Another option for the alternative frame is the Hollywood Racks Gordo, # HRG2. It has wider arms so you can place the bike on the rack in different locations on the frame. But, this is only a 2 bike rack. I have included some instruction links and a video of the adapter bar for you.
