  • Trailer Hitch, Cargo Carrier And Bike Rack For 2013 Volkswagen Jetta TDI Sedan
  • There is a hitch available for the 2013 Volkswagen Jetta TDI Sedan, it is Curt hitch part # C11474. I have attached an installation video for your reference. It can tow up to 200 lbs of tongue weight. I was not able to access your owner's manual but it is a good idea to check the owner's manual for the tongue weight rating Volkswagen recommends for the Jetta and do not exceed that. If you need a cargo carrier, I recommend the Curt cargo carrier part # C18145 because it is better quality...

  • Recommendations for Rhino-Rack HD Roof Rack on a 2013 Volkswagen Jetta Sedan
  • I am happy to help you find a roof rack for your 2013 Volkswagen Jetta Sedan. For naked roofs, the roof rack will mount to the door frame of your vehicle using a custom fit hook. The Rhino-Rack HD # RB1650 does not have a confirmed fit custom mount for your Jetta, but the # RB1250 does. You will need the legs # RRRLKHD and custom fit kit # DK055 to complete your roof rack system. Check out the video below for a detailed explanation on how these racks are installed and why the custom...

  • Can I Carry Two Hullavators On A 2019 Volkswagen Jetta
  • Your 2019 Volkswagen Jetta has a roof rack weight limit of 165lbs, so your vehicle's roof will not have any problems supporting two Thule Hullavators. The issue will be the length of your crossbars. You need between 4" and 8" of excess bar length between the towers/feet and the end of your crossbar. Each Hullavator is 36" long. This means you will need a crossbar length of at least 72". The recommended crossbar length on your vehicle is 50". That means you will have an additional 11" of...

  • Recommended Hitch for a 2023 VW Jetta GLI
  • Yes, it does. The Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch item # 24978 is confirmed to fit the 2023 Jetta GLI. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your VW with included hardware. I really like this hitch because the crosstube mounts behind the rear bumper. This leaves only the 1-1/4" receiver showing which not only looks better but helps with ground clearance. I have linked an installation video below.

  • 2014 Jetta Sportwagen Factory Rack Fit With Thule Airscreen
  • The Thule AirScreen XT, part # TH72WV, was designed to fit all racks, even factory racks, and this is the size that would fit your vehicle. Unfortunately Thule has yet to release an updated fit guide, that shows if the Thule AirScreen will fit your 2014 Volkswagen Jetta's factory bars. Thule said it should work but they cannot guarantee that it would fit. However, Yakima WindShield Fairing for Roof Racks - 40" Long, part # Y05017, will work for your vehicle. I have included a link below.

  • Trek Marlin 6 Bikes Fitment onto the Thule Gateway Pro 2 Bike Rack # TH88VR
  • Yes! I confirmed with Thule that the Thule Gateway Pro 2 Bike Rack # TH88VR fits a 2019 Volkswagen Jetta. As far as the shape of the sharp slanted downtubes of your bikes, I recommend using a bike frame adapter bar # RRRBCA021 for each bike. This adapter bar will provide your bikes with a straight, horizontal plane that is required to attach to the arms of the rack. I went ahead and attached a video that shows how the adapter works with a bike frame similar to yours. As far as weight capacity,...

  • Edge Monitor Options for a 2002 Volkswagen Jetta
  • The Edge Insight CTS2 is a universal fit so it should work just fine for your 2002 Volkswagen Jetta. With that being said, the CTS2 was discontinued so you'll want to use either the older model CS2 Comprehensive Gauge Display # EP84030 or the newer model CTS3 Comprehensive Gauge Display # EP54FR. Since these are universal applications there isn't necessarily a specific "fit" chart and Edge lists these as "Compatible with most domestic gas and diesel vehicles 1996 and newer".

  • Will Trailer Hitch Fit 2019 Volkswagen Jetta With Faux Dual Exhaust Trim
  • Thank you so much for the photo it was very helpful! And since your 2019 Volkswagen Jetta has the faux dual exhaust which is just a trim and is not truly dual exhaust, you can absolutely install the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver # 24978. I have added an additional photo a customer sent in which shows this hitch installed on a 2019 Jetta that has the same faux exhaust trim so you can see what the hitch will look like when installed on your Jetta.

  • Why Does 2015 Volkswagen Jetta TDI Use Different Trailer Hitch Than 2015 Jetta Non-TDI?
  • You are correct that bumper is the same, the issue is that behind the bumper on the passenger side of your 2016 Volkswagen Jetta TDI there are components that interfere would with the non-TDI trailer hitch receiver's like the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2" # 306-X7311 when installed as you can see in the included two pictures.
