- I did a little research and found that the correct AirFlow roof rack for your 2016 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen with the factory side rails is # MPG215. There isn't a 211 that will fit your Golf but there is # MPG201. The difference between it and the 215 is that the 201 has rectangular bars and 215 has aero bars which are quieter and have less drag. I have included links to videos covering the features of these 2 styles of roof rack.

- I have an option for you but the trailer hitch receiver from your 2013 Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen will not work on your new 2015 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen.
I recommend the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7315 due to it being the only option for your 2015 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen that has a 2x2 receiver which will give you more options for accessories. I included a picture of the EcoHitch # 306-X7315 installed on a customers car for you to take a look at.

view full answer... - Recommended Kayak Rack to Use With Square Bar Roof Rack
- Square crossbars are generally between 7/8" to 1" wide x 7/8" tall and there are a number of quality economical options.
For a J-style kayak carrier I recommend checking out the etrailer Kayak Carrier # e98878 which transports a single kayak on its side and even includes a pair of cam buckle straps and a pair of tie-downs; it uses clamps to secure to the bars.
If you wanted a rear-loading saddle style carrier a great option is the Rhino-Rack Nautic Carrier # RR571. This carrier also clamps...
view full answer... - Will Roof Rack Included With Used Weekender Cargo Box On 2016 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen
- The crossbars and attachments you received for your Weekender may fit your Golf but it depends on the crossbar style and length, and whether the feet that attach to the Golf roof rails are compatible.
We offer the Thule WingBar roof rack that has 47-inch crossbars. For this roof rack you would need part # TH711200 for silver or # TH711220 for black, and part # TH710401.
The Thule roof rack we offer that has SquareBar crossbars uses 47-inch long crossbars and you would need part # TH712200,...

- The EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 306-X7315 is the correct fit for your 2015 VW Golf TDI SportWagen. The EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 306-X7375 you referenced is not a fit for your vehicle and is only a fit for the 2018 - 2019 Volkswagen e-Golf and 2018 - 2020 Volkswagen Golf GTI models.
view full answer... - Trailer Wiring Compatible With 2017 VW Golf Hatchback
- On your 2017 VW Golf hatchback, we don't have a custom fit for your vehicle. The other custom fits for other models are not confirmed to fit your Golf hatchback. The wiring harness I recommend for you is the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit, # 119250KIT. This will not plug into your wiring with quick connects but will actually connect over your wiring without cutting into it. This harness has zero contact interface sensors...

- While we do not have a table, we do have some diagrams in the help articles I linked on trailer wiring and wiring troubleshooting which I recommend taking a look at. And even though your 2017 VW Golf SportWagen has brake lights and turn signals on the same circuit, a 4-way with a powered modulite can still have issues.
I recommend first start by checking your grounds to ensure they are securely attached to a bare metal surface free from any type of corrosion, dirt or paint; a bad ground...

- We have not yet heard about any issues with the Curt trailer hitch # C11422 interfering with the Accident Avoidance sensors on the 2016 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen. The hitch mounts in line with the rear bumper beam, see instruction link, and only the hitch receiver is visible so there really isn't a way that it could interfere.
view full answer... - Trailer Hitch and Wiring for a 2017 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen Alltrack
- The Alltrack is a version of the 2017 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen. Curt and Draw-Tite indicate that their hitches fit all models of the 2017 SportWagen. So I recommend Draw-Tite hitch # 24949 since it does not have special requirements for using a bike rack or cargo carrier like the Curt hitch does.
The recommended ball mount for this hitch is # 3590. For a 1-7/8 inch ball use # 19257 and for a 2 inch use # 19258. The trailer wiring harness # 118730 is also listed as a fit for all models...

- The recommended size Thule WingBar Evo Crossbar for a 2017 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen is 47", part # TH711220. That said, you can usually go up to the next size without issue which will be 50", part # TH711320 or part # TH711300. These can both be used with the Evo Raised Rail Feet for Thule Crossbars part # TH710401 to complete the system. This would be the largest size that would work due to the channels underneath.

- I took a look at the answer pages that you were referring to and you are correct that the T-One # 118646 was recommended.

Optionally you can install locks for the feet by ordering the Thule # TH710401 one-key lock...
view full answer... - Recommended Roof Rack to Carry 3 Kayaks with a 2017 VolksWagen Golf SportWagen
- Both Thule and Yakima produce great products, so I recommend going with a Yakima roof rack for your 2017 Volkswagen Golf SportWagen since that is what you are familiar with.
The recommended JetStream roof rack system for your SportWagen includes 50 inch Crossbars # Y00425, the TimberLine Towers # Y33TR, and SKS Lock Cores # Y07204. This system has a weight capacity of 165 lbs so you will want to keep that in mind when loading your kayaks.
