Expert Answers about Mercedes-Benz


  • Hitch Fit for 2006 Mercedes-Benz ML500
  • Unfortunately, the hitches we offer for a 2006 Mercedes-Benz ML500 aren't compatible with vehicles that have the air-ride suspension option. I wish we had better news for you. If you were needing the hitch to provide a mounting point for a bike rack, you could use a hatch mounted bike rack like the Thule Gateway 2-bike model, part # TH88VR or the 3-bike model, part # TH78VR which would be a good alternative to a hitch mounted bike rack.. I've linked to a product demonstration video featuring...

  • Which Trailer Hitch Fits 2021 Mercedes GLC300
  • For your 2021 Mercedes Benz GLC300 the correct hitch is the part # C84ER which is the same thing as the Curt 13477 so what you have is the correct hitch. The # C13290 is not correct.

  • Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier that Can be Used with Dually Wheel Setup
  • For a spare carrier that can carry a dually wheel and tire you'd want the part # RM-195225 which we've confirmed works with dually wheels. As long as your door is more than 12-1/8 inches above the top of the hitch opening when opening this would allow the door to open when the rack is swung down.

  • Suspension Support Systems For 2021 Winnebago Revel Mercedes Sprinter 2500 4X4
  • We do have an option for you but for your 2021 Winnebago Revel Mercedes Sprinter 2500 4X4 there are currently no supporting airbag system products available. With it being so new designers haven't been able to produce a fitting product that will give you the smoother ride you're looking for. We do instead recommend Timbren Rear Suspension Enhancement System product # TMBRSP25A and Timbren Front Suspension Enhancement System product # TMBFSP35. Both of these are confirmed to fit your 2021...

  • How To Determine The Correct Lug Nuts For An Airstream Interstate 24X
  • We carry both Stainless Steel and ABS Plastic lug nuts. To know which ones would fit your Airstream Interstate 24X you would need to measure the lug nuts or see what size socket fits and then we could narrow down the selection to exactly what you need. For example the Wheel Masters Lug Nut Covers # WM8012 you were looking at are Stainless Steel and fit 1-1/2" lug nuts.

  • Yakima Trunk-Mount 3-Bike Racks That Fit 2008 Mercedes-Benz ML350
  • I checked with Yakima about the trunk-mounted bike racks that fit a 2008 Mercedes-Benz M-Class and found out that the only fits they have for a 3-bike rack are the Yakima HangOut 3-Bike Rack # Y02638, along with the Yakima FullBack 3-Bike Rack # Y02633. The accompanying photo is actually from Yakima and shows the FullBack on an '08 Mercedes ML350 like yours. Of these two options the FullBack is by far the best because of its cushioned padding which keeps your bikes and Mercedes safe...

  • Difference Between Thule Force XT & Thule Motion XT Cargo Boxes
  • So there are really only a pair of differences at base between the Thule Motion XT and Thule Force XT rooftop cargo boxes. One is the aesthetic, with the Force XT having a textured, flat black finish, while the Motion XT has a high-gloss black finish. Which one you like more comes down to personal preference as there isn't an advantage to having one over the other. The other difference is the locking system; the Motion XT has what Thule calls a SlideLock system that automatically locks...

  • SnapRing TireSavers Covers For 215/85-16 Tires on Leisure Travel Unity RV
  • According to my research, your Leisure Travel Unity RV has size 215/85-16 tires, which come out to just under 30-1/2 inches in diameter. There are indeed SnapRing TireSavers covers for that size tire, and you can choose either white or black in color: - White: SnapRing TireSavers Tire Covers # ST7002WH - Black: SnapRing TireSavers Tire Covers # ST7002BK These are a really nice choice for tire covers for your motorhome because they are so easy to use, sliding over your tires and snapping...

  • 4-Way Wiring Harness Compatibility For a 2012 Mercedes-Benz GLK 350
  • Yes, the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter # C59236 is confirmed to fit your 2012 Mercedes-Benz GLK 350. This 4-way harness will require you to splice into your tail light wiring for the signal wires of the powered converter. If you would prefer not to splice into your wiring we do have the Tekonsha ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT that uses sensors that detect when power is traveling through the wiring to trigger the signal wires for the 4-way harness.

  • Can The Thule Elite Van XT 2 Bike Rack # TH302043 Be Mounted on Either Rear Door?
  • The Thule Elite Van XT 2 Bike Rack # TH302043 really only makes sense to use on the passenger side door of your 2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500. With it mounted on this door you will be able to open your doors as opposed to it being on the drivers door. With it on the drivers door you would have to remove the bikes and reposition the carrier to open the passenger side door far enough to open the drivers door. I did reach out to Thule and they confirmed that it needs to be mounted on...

  • Will Installing A Sway Bar On A 2020 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 Void The Warranty?
  • Installing the Roadmaster Rear Anti-Sway Bar # RM-1209-131 will not void your warranty. Stuff like this is protected under the Magnuson-Moss warranty act. This states that unless the part added actually causes a problem, then installation and use of the part will not void the warranty. That said, the correct sway bar will depend on your vehicle. I see you entered a 2020 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 and there are two options available for this vehicle. I have both listed below. Cargo Van...

  • Adjustable Ball Mount For A 2014 Mercedes Benz GLK
  • To get your ball to the height you are wanting on your 2014 Mercedes Benz GLK I recommend using an adjustable mount. I recommend the B&W Tow & Stow 2-Ball Mount - 2" Hitch - 5" Drop, 5-1/2" Rise - 7.5K - Black Item # BWTS10038B. It provides a 1-7/8" ball and a 2" ball for different trailer couplers and fits 2" receivers. It is going to provide a 5-1/2" rise so it is going to provide the adjustability you are looking for. I recommend making sure the trailer doesn't exceed the weight capacity...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for a 2009 Mercedes-Bens E350 4matic
  • The only Hitch we currently have available for your 2009 Mercedes-Benz E350 4matic is the Curt # C11701. However, this is a Class I hitch and is only rated up to 2,000 pounds towing and 200 pounds of tongue weight. You will need to double check the vehicle capacities in your owners manual, but I would not suggest loading your trailer to its maximum due to the hitches max capacity. As to the 2 inch coupler on your trailer, there are definitely options for the correct ball mount and ball,...

  • Awning Compatibility with AluRack Rooftop Rack on Sprinter 2500
  • The Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning # RR32132 is designed to install on a roof rack that has bars with a channel or slot in their top surfaces. These include their own Vortex Aero bars like the ones in the 3-bar roof rack made for the Sprinter 2500 with a bare standard roof, which consists of parts # RRVA180B-3, # RLTFMS and # RRVA-FK1-3. I linked a photo to show you this bar type and the mounting channel. AluRack makes racks that are much like a large roof cargo basket and these do not have...

  • Trailer Hitch Fit for 2012 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500
  • The Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # C13388 is a confirmed fit for your 2012 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. The reason the hitch does not fit models with 30-3/8" frame, measured outside to outside of frame is because the normal frame on the Sprinter is wider. To confirm the fit on your Sprinter, you can measure the 35-1/2 inches from the frame hole center to center where this hitch mounts. I've attached a photo to assist.

  • What is Active Curve System and Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLE350
  • The Active Curve System on your 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLE350 is a feature that adjusts the ride of the vehicle when cornering to improve the ride and handling. Some trailer hitches are not compatible with this feature. The hitch I recommend because it works with your Mercedes if it has this feature is the Curt # C13294. If you're going to be towing a trailer you also need wiring like part # C59496 and a ball mount like what's in our kit, part # 989900.

  • Will the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider Bike Rack Allow Rear Sprinter Doors to Open or What Rack Will
  • The Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack # HLY84FR is rated for use on your Mercedes Benz Sprinter and will allow you to open the rear doors with no bikes installed. But, you will be unlikely to get the doors to fully open with your bikes loaded. I do have another option though. The Lets Go Aero V-Lectric FAT PRO Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # LGA77FR is rated for use on your Mercedes Benz Sprinter, can carry 2 bikes weighing up to 75 lbs. per bike and features a TwinTube platform...

  • 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 Running Board Recommendation
  • The only running board kit that has been custom-made for your 2019 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 is the Aries RidgeStep Running Boards w/ Custom Installation Kit # AA86ZB. This doesn't have the fancy electric extend/retract feature but it gives you the step system you're looking for to help your wife out. I like the multiple holes in the boards that help provide extra grip. You might be able to get the Actiontrac steps to fit but that would be a complete modification and you would want a...
