Features to know about

Clean, Factory Look When Not in Use: Completely Hidden Hitch Design

You don’t have to give up your vehicle’s clean lines just to carry your bikes or gear. This hitch installs behind the bumper, keeping the cross tube completely out of sight. The 2" receiver detaches without tools, so when you’re done using it, you can remove it and leave nothing visible. It keeps your ride looking like it just came off the assembly line while still giving you the option to haul what you need.

Carry Your Gear with Confidence: Strong 600 lbs Tongue Weight Rating

Whether it’s a bike rack, cargo carrier, or even a motorcycle carrier, this hitch is built to handle up to 600 lbs of tongue weight. The sturdy stainless steel construction resists corrosion and keeps everything stable on the road. You can load up your gear knowing the hitch is designed for strength and reliability every time you use it.

Quick Setup for Everyday Use: Simple Detach and Secure System

When you’re ready to use it, snap the receiver into the center block and it automatically latches in place—no tools required. A built-in lock keeps it secure while driving. When you’re done, unlock it with the key, twist the handle, and store the receiver until next time. The included hitch plug keeps dirt and debris out, so your connection points stay clean and ready to go.

Good design and build quality. The frame can be 100% hidden inside the rear bumper when the hitch is released. It gives you a perfect look of the car from rear end. The installation manual can be more detail and specific as it's per car model designed. I had to figure out a few areas myself, because I couldn't find the pictures in the manual, it took a lot of my time. I give it 5 stars. The only downside is it's a bit expensive.

Awesome receiver hitch that maintains the look of the car. The installation instructions are very detailed and thorough. If you feel intimidated by the idea of removing the fascia, just follow the directions closely, take your time and you’ll find its really not that big of an ordeal. Having the padded bench ready is key (pic).

Love the stealth hitch! I use this only for a bike rack, so it is great to be able to remove the hitch assembly when I am not using the bike rack. With the hitch portion removed, it looks as if there is not a hitch. Then when the hitch is needed, it is quick & easy to put it back on. Install was not too bad, the install instructions were very detailed and made it as easy as possible.

I'm using this hitch for more than a year now and so far it's working just great for me. Big thanks to etrailer for quick delivery.

  • What Hitch and Bike Rack for 2 Bikes do I Need for My 2015 Audi Q5?
    Hello John, Both of the part numbers that you listed are for Curt hitches, the # C13136 is the round tube style, and the # C73ZJ is more you traditional square tube. Both are a great fit for your 2015 Audi Q5, and both are listed with a 750 pound tongue weight. Of course you will want to check your owners manual to see what Audi says the Q5 can handle, just because the hitch is rated that high does not mean the vehicle can handle that much weight. For the Stealth hitch you would want...

  • Recommended Stealth Hitch for a 2014 Audi Q5
    To purchase a Stealth Hitch without the wiring, for your 2014 Audi Q5, you will want the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver item # 391AUDQ509. The ball mount is available for purchase separately item # 391BMU5S but not the bracket that holds onto the wiring harness. You will also need the 2" Hitch Ball item # 63845. Stealth Hitch makes it difficult and not cost effective to piece it out. There's no kits other than the entire Towing Kit w/ Ball Mount and Trailer Wiring item # 391CONVR5.

  • What Trailer Hitch Fits 2010 Audi Q5
    Hi Ashwin, I checked with the manufacturer, Draw-Tite, and they verified the # 75940 is not a fit for the 2010 Audi Q5. You can still add a hitch though, you'll just need a different option, from Curt: - Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13136 I double checked just to make sure and this hitch is a fit for your '10 Q5, so long as it is NOT the hybrid model. If you do have the hybrid the only option for a hitch is the Stealth Hitches # 391AUDQ509T if you plan on towing or # 391AUDQ509 if...

  • Availability Of 1-1/4 Trailer Hitch Receiver For 2014 Audi Q5
    I have another option for you, but the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver C114123 you mentioned is only confirmed to fit select Volkswagen Golf's and will not fit your 2014 Audi Q5. Instead you will need to go with the Stealth Hitches Hidden Receiver # 391AUDQ509 and then also purchase the 1-1/4" Receiver Attachment # 391RR1 to give you a 1-1/4" receiver. Keep in mind this receiver can only be used to carry accessories like a bike rack, or cargo carrier and cannot be used for towing. If you...

  • Recommended Stealth Hitch For A 2017 Audi Q5 And Someone That Can Install It
    The Stealth Hitches # 391AUDQ509 is definitely a fit for your 2017 Audi Q5, but is not an easy one to install. With that said, we have indeed started to get some installers listed on our site and I included a link to where you can find them below. You will just need to update the zip code to see those in your area. If there are currently none listed though, I always recommend going to a mechanic that has done good work on vehicles for you in the past. They will typically do the best job...

  • Replacement Mounting Hardware For a Trailer Hitch Receiver On a 2012 Audi Q5
    We do offer the Replacement Hardware Kit # RHK which you can order to get the correct replacement hardware for the Curt # C13136, etrailer # e57AR, or Stealth Hitches # 391AUDQ509 receivers.

  • Stealth Brand Trailer Hitch Fit for 2016 S5 Audi Convertible
    According to Stealth Hitch, the proper hitch for your vehicle is part # 391AUDA4A5S509. I just spoke with my Stealth Hitch representative to confirm this for you. I've linked the installation instructions for you. This hitch would be compatible with a bike rack, but not for towing purposes. If you wanted to tow with the hitch use part # 391AUDA4A5S52T. The # 391AUDQ509 hitch you'd looked at is a fit for the 2016 Q5 or SQ5, but NOT the S5.

  • Does Stealth Hitch for 2010 Audi Q5 Have Capacity for Carrying 250 lb Motorcycle
    The Stealth hitch part # 391AUDQ509 that you referenced has a tongue weight capacity of 600 lbs so it would pretty easily be able to handle the weight of a 250 lb dirt bike on a carrier like the etrailer carrier part # e98873.
