Expert Answers about Audi Q5


  • Will The Tekonsha 119250KIT Work On A 2021 Audi Q5 Hybrid
  • The Tekonsha Powered Tail Light Converter # 119250KIT will indeed work on your 2021 Audi Q5 Hybrid. The 119250KIT is a universal hardwire kit that can be used on virtually any vehicle regardless of differences in the electrical systems. The manufacturer (Tekonsha) has confirmed that it will work on the hybrid models. We made an install video showing the 119250KIT being installed on a 2020 Audi Q5 (non-hybrid). I have linked our video below if you want to take a look.

  • Tire Chains for 2018 Audi Q5 with 255/45r20 Tires
  • I was able to find the manual for the 2018 Audi Q5 and I've attached a the page that it talks about tire chains; from what I'm seeing it says to only install chains on the rear tires, so I would recommend double checking- there is more clearance at the rear of the vehicle which is why I believe this is the recommendation. Regardless of where you install them, you are correct in that you need chains or a fine mesh tire sock that is no taller than 13.5mm. I would recommend going with the...

  • Comparing the Thule Force XT and Motion XT Cargo Boxes for a 2015 Audi Q5
  • The Thule Motion line of boxes including # TH629806 did replace the Sonic line but the design of the Motion is more angular. This is a premium box whereas the Force XT line including # TH6358B is a lower cost line. The locking/handle mechanisms are upgraded on the Motion as well. The Force XT box is still an excellent cargo box and if I were choosing between it and the Motion I would probably go with the Force XT because you aren't giving up all that much if you do.

  • Does Thule Hullavator Require Adapter to Use With Thule Crossbars on 2011 Audi Q5?
  • No type of adapter will be necessary to use the Thule Hullavator # TH898 with WingBar Load Bars, as they will fit into the channels of those bars. For your 2011 Audi Q5 you can install the Thule WingBar Crossbars # TH711220 (Black) or # TH711200 (Silver) and you will also need the Thule Evo Foot Pack # TH710601 and Thule Fit Kit # TH186019. I also strongly recommend using the Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders # TH450400, which will allow you to lock the rack to your Audi's roof and...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch For A 2021 Audi Q5 And 2023 Toyota Highlander Hauling A Motorcycle
  • The Curt 13499 is no longer offered but Curt manufactures all of the etrailer hitches for us so you'd be getting the same thing with the # e94CR, with the only difference being that this hitch comes with a matte black finish. The fitguide can be a bit confusing some times, but the reason for the plug-in / no plug-in clarification is because on some vehicles there are fitment differences between these models. Since the system sections the vehicle this way you'll see the same hitch twice...

  • Best 2024 Audi Q5 Trailer Wiring Harness

Attached is an installation video of this kit on a 2018 Q5 for your reference.

  • Differences Between Trailer Hitch Receivers For 2021 Audi Q5

  • Recommended Hitch and Wiring Harness for a 2016 Audi SQ5
  • I would be happy to help you. For a Draw-Tite Hitch on your 2016 Audi SQ5 you will want item # 75940. This hitch is custom fit and bolts directly to your Audi's frame with included hardware. To add a brake controller you will need two separate wiring harnesses because you will need to add a 7-way to plug the trailer into. The first harness you will need is the Curt T-Connector item # C56404. This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your vehicle's wiring harness, which is located in your...

  • Will The Replacement Mounting Hardware For Car Top Cargo Roof Cargo Box Work With My G3 Absolute?
  • While the Replacement Mounting Hardware for Car Top Cargo Roof Cargo Box # CTC-18PARTS that you mentioned has not been tested by the manufacturer to work with other brands as it is designed to work with the no longer available Car Top Cargo Rooftop Cargo Box # CTC-18S, we have had customers in the past use this on their off-brand cargo carriers and have success. This is a fairly "one size fits most" option, however you might need to do some fabricating if the holes do not line up perfect....

  • What Does the Replacement Cover Strip with Pattern for Thule AeroBlade Edge Cross Bars Fit
  • The Replacement Cover Strip with Pattern for Thule AeroBlade Edge Cross Bars # TH69JH installs into the top t-slot, which does help to reduce wind noise. However, it sounds like you may have an OEM roof rack from Audi. I am not sure if this would be the correct fit or how many would be needed for your Audi crossbars. What I can say is that the # TH69JH strip measures 59" long and fits the Thule AeroBlade Edge crossbars: 7501, 7501B, 7502, 7502B, 7503, 7503B, 7504, 7504B, 7601, 7601B,...

  • Trailer Hitch Compatible with 2020 Audi Q5 Plug-In Hybrid
  • The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 76183 you referenced is compatible with the 2020 Audi Q5 Plug-In Hybrid. The installation is where the bumper support is so it will not interfere with the battery placement. I've linked the page to the installation to show you the installation on the traditional model that will work the same way.

  • Is Trimming Required To Install Stealth Hitches Rack Receiver On a 2018 Audi Q5
  • The Stealth Hitches Rack Receiver part # 391AUDQ518 which is a fit for a 2018 Audi Q5 will not require any cutting or trimming so long as you have the factory center knock-out panel. The 2018+ models should all have the factory center knock-out panel which will allow the hitch opening to show through without additional cutting. I spoke to my rep at Stealth Hitches to confirm this for you. I have attached a photo to assist as well.

  • Stealth Hitches Hitch Receiver for 2021 Audi Q5 Convertible and Hollywood Bike Rack
  • For your 2021 Audi Q5 convertible I recommend the Stealth Hitches Hidden Rack Receiver item # 391AUDA5S518. This is a custom fit 2" receiver that requires no drilling to attach to your vehicle. It has a maximum tongue weight of 350 lbs and has a removable receiver for a fully concealed look when you're not carrying your bikes to the trail. I have attached a picture of this hitch installed on a Audi Q5. I recommend going with a platform style receiver mounted bike rack. The Hollywood Racks...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver and Wiring Harness For a 2022 Audi Q5
  • Your 2022 Audi Q5 will require a different bike trailer hitch receiver from one you had on a 2014 Honda CR-V. I recommend the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e94CR as it is custom fit for your Audi. It is the only receiver we offer in the matte black powder coating that matches best with the fascia accents used on your Audi. The receiver has a class III 2" opening for a large variety of bike racks and ball mounts. The ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer...

  • Will the Dometic Part-Timer RV Toilet 310 Series Replace a 300 Series
  • The Dometic Part-Timer RV Toilet (310 Series) part # DOM57FR should be a direct replacement for a 300 Series Dometic Toilet. I took a look at some reviews and many have done this stating it was pretty much plug-in-play with only slight modifications. I don't have any dimensions on the water inlet height unfortunately though.

  • Recommended Platform Bike Rack for an R-Pod 179
  • While the Yakima, and Thule bikes racks are phenomenal options, none of these companies have tested and approved any of their platform racks for use on a travel trailer like your R-Pod 179. I do have a similar solution for you though with the Kuat Transfer V2 # KU84FR. This bike rack secures bikes by the wheel like the Kuat Sherpa so it keeps your bikes from moving around like you found with your hanging rack, plus it has been tested and approved for the extra movement at the back of a...

  • Trailer Hitch Receiver Compatibility With 2020 Audi Q5 Plug-In Hybrid For Carrying a Bike Rack
  • Yes, the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e94CR is also confirmed to fit your 2020 Audi Q5 plug-in hybrid. The receiver itself has a maximum tongue weight rating of 750lbs but be sure to check your owners manual to ensure that you do not exceed any specifications given by Audi. We now carry the Kuat Piston Pro X Bike Rack # KU98VR that will fit the 2" receiver. This is one of the easiest bike racks we have for loading and unloading your bikes. It can support 2 bikes weighing up to 67lbs...

  • How to Tell if My 2019 Audi Q5 Has Factory Trailer Wiring
  • Basically if you look at the rear of your 2019 Audi Q5 and you don't see a trailer connector then you don't have one from the factory. Worst case scenario you can call your local dealer with your VIN and they will be able to confirm either way. Since you're looking into installing a hitch I would be very surprised if you already have wiring but no hitch - those are usually installed together if they are from the factory. So in addition to the Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch # 76183 that you're...
