Draw-Tite Tested Tough

Draw-Tite Tested Tough

Draw-Tite's Tested Tough program provides testing standards far superior to those outlined by the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the go-to source for engineering professionals.



Each Draw-Tite trailer hitch receiver undergoes extensive fatigue testing and static testing with the ball mount that is either supplied or recommended for use with that particular hitch, thus ensuring results that are applicable to real life use. Fatigue testing is also conducted on hitches rated for use with weight-distribution systems.


In addition, Draw-Tite performs static testing on a simulated automobile, as opposed to the rigid fixture used for SAE testing, resulting in a more true-to-life scenario.


etrailer.com Technical Support

At etrailer.com we're committed to the products we sell, and to our customers. Our experienced and knowledgeable staff are available via both phone and email to address your questions and concerns for the lifetime of your hitch.

Great product. Installers used the video from your website to assure of proper installation.

2018 Audi Q5

Well made and perfect fit on my Audi. Installation was easier than I thought and went really smooth.



by:

As etrailer may have noted it's a 10/10 install. Removing the rear bumper cover is a little tricky and putting it back on for one person was even more tricky. Following their video made it all possible. I would have never found all the fasteners without their help. Fun project and works great for towing and bike racks. I love the customer service and videos, this is my third hitch from them.

Great hitch and easy to install on my 2018 Audi Q5. Used it already to tow a heavy motorcycle 200 miles on rented trailer. Mostly using it with Thule Helium Pro Bike Rack for 3 Bikes, also purchased from “erailer”.
Highly recommended product and great company to deal with. Thank you.



by:

Excellent product and customer support. Over the years I’ve bought two, installed by myself. A third hitch is in the process because we recently decided to purchase a second hand Acura MDX that needs a hitch for our bike rack. Videos make the installation easy.



by:

Had this hitch installed on my 2018 Audi Q5 last week. Already used it a few times to carry my bikes and it's perfect! Can't comment on the longevity , but this certainly seems like a high-quality hitch, and I am excited at all the flexibility it allows me. The attached photo doesn't show the hitch, but my bike rack is attached to it, demonstrating its ability. Thanks etrailer!

Awesome! Works perfectly.

Relatively simple to enjoy. Easy to attach bike rack to hitch. Unobtrusive appearance below back bumper. Competitive pricing.

Installation went exactly as the video described. Of course I had the benefit of my brother’s knowledge, tools and expertise, as I could not have done the installation myself.
Very pleased with the final result. The hitch looks as if it was a factory installation.

Great product. Very easy to install by just following the video. The only problem I had was with the trim because the measurements is off center if you follow the instructions but it still works and it isn’t noticeable unless you bend. 2018 Audi Q5. Second time I’ve ordered from here and perfect every time. Quick shipping also.

2018 Audi Q5

This is the second Draw-Tight trailer hitch I have purchased from etrailer.com. Supper fast shipping and the communication from the etrailer team is excellent. The Draw-tight hutch was easy to install and looks great on our 2018 Q5. I didn’t have to cut any plastic parts to complete the installation because the bumper plastic will fit around the hitch.



by:

Installation went just as expected. This is a rather simple installation and looks like a factory hitch. You only need to cut the notch into the bumper cover if you have a long ball mount that will reach back into the receiver.

The product is very very well built and solid. I am completely satisfied with the this product and the service provided by etrailer.com!



by:
2018 Audi Q5

Relatively easy to install, video instructions helped a ton! Appears to be good quality.



by:

The order arrived quickly. There was a video for my car and my trailer hitch which I followed to the letter. The level of difficulty was pretty high, and I have installed 4 other etrailers on my cars before. It took me about 2 hours to complete the install on my Audio Q5 without any issues. Anytime I buy a car, I add a trailer hitch from etrailer because they make it so easy.

2018 Audi Q5

I truly appreciated etrailer.com's fit confirmation, installation video, and expert phone support. They gave me the knowledge I needed to work with a good local mechanic after hearing pricey estimates and liability concerns from the dealer and several body shops. [Installed on 2018 Audi Q5]



by:
2018 Audi Q5

I am very happy with my purchase from etrailer.com especially since I did not have to cut out a notch in my bumper to fit the tow hitch. It just slipped into the open gap. The only other thing I would change about the instructions. The 10 mm socket needs to be an extended 10 mm socket.



by:
2019 Audi SQ5

Shipped very promptly, received within 2 days. A bit disappointed for the box, as the hitch receiver had broken throhgh the cardboard but disn't show any big damage other than cosmetic. Installed was relatively simple if you watch the video first. Took me about 3 hours to install and return vehicle to driving conditions, but I did have my 2 little ones constantly interrupt me, so I am pretty sure that easily 1:30-2:00 tips is cery reasonable. I did not have to trim the bottom of the bumper as it fit without any issues. It looks stock which is someting I was looking for.



by:

Great product. Great instructions.
Install
take a good hour with reviewing the instructions online video.
No need to cut the rear bumper, hitch slides on and fits through no problem.



by:

Installed very easy just like instructions stated. Works well and looks very nice!!



by:

Great fit on my 2018 Audi SQ5.
Great
quality hitch. Video instruction makes it easy.
Be careful trimming the small piece of plastic under the rear bumper. The tabs are not equally spaced so if you measure between two centre tabs it isn’t actually in the centre of the bumper and the small cut out will be off centre.



by:

Straightforward install, no cutting.



by:

Works perfectly, great deal overall. Thank you

The product was a perfect fit on my 2019 Audi SQ5. The installation video was spot on and very helpful. Nice job guys!

Audi SQ5

I ordered a draw-tite hitch for a ‘21 Audi SQ5. Super solid product, 1/4 the price of the OEM hitch and I can’t imagine the OEM one is any better. Fast shipping from e-trailer (the box looked like it’d fallen off the truck but the contents were fine), and the hitch fit perfectly!

Well made. Good install instruction and video. Fits as shown.

  • Comparing Curt And Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receivers for 2021 Audi Q5
    I would be happy to make a recommendation for a trailer hitch for your 2021 Audi Q5. Between the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # C13331 and Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # 76183 I recommend the Curt # C13331 due to it allowing the rear bumper beam structure to be reinstalled for extra strength in the rear of the vehicle, and requiring less modifying to the rear bumper fascia. Draw-Tite has mentioned that in their testing that with their hitch installed the bumper beam structure...

  • Do All Hitches for 2020 Audi Q5 Require Removing Rear Bumper
    Due to the way your 2020 Audi Q5 is set up there isn't a way to install a trailer hitch like the # 76183 without removing the bumper. This sounds more invasive and difficult than it really is though. As long as you have basic hand tools and mechanical skills you'd have no problem. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.

  • Troubleshooting Trailer Lights Flickering
    Hey Lucas, welcome back. I recommend checking your ground wires on both the item # 119250KIT harness you purchased and the trailer's. You could also have something causing interference so check the clamps to. You may have another wire too close. Does your Audi have incandescent lights and does your trailer have LED lights? If so you'll want to install the Putco LED Light Bulb Load-Resistors item # P230004A-2.

  • Does the etrailer Hitch e94CR Fit a 2024 Audi Q5 Plug-In Hybrid?
    Yes, it does! The etrailer Hitch item # e94CR fits all models of the 2024 Audi Q5 including the plug-in hybrid. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your Audi with included hardware. I really like this hitch because it mounts behind your rear bumper leaving only the 2" receiver exposed. The etrailer item # e94CR is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. It has a 5,000 lbs towing capacity and a 750 lbs maximum tongue weight. I have linked an installation video below so you can see how to...

  • Trimming Required for Hitch 76183 Installation on Audi 2018 SQ5
    You can install Draw-Tite hitch # 76183 on your 2018 Audi SQ5 with only minor trimming of the rear fascia. If you refer to the linked photo taken from the included instructions you'll see the small 2 x 3-1/2-inch notch to be made. Just take care that you avoid cutting the wiring behind it. I also include a link to a video for a Q5 installation which will be very similar overall.

  • Will Hitch Installation Affect Hands-Free Liftgate Sensor Operation on a 2019 Audi Q5
    The Hands-free Liftgate Sensors on your 2019 Audi Q5 will still function with any of the trailer hitches we carry installed, but since you are adding a big piece of steel near the sensors this will limit the area that the sensors pick up your foot movement to directly on either side of the hitch receiver. Out of the Draw-Tite # 76183, Curt # C13331, and EcoHitch # 306-X7397 options I highly recommend the Curt because in our experience their construction is better than the Draw-Tite and...

  • 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...

  • Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2019 Audi Q5
    For your 2019 Audi Q5 I highly recommend the Draw-Tite Class III Max Frame Trailer Hitch # 76183 because it offers slightly better ground clearance than the alternatives (you don't have to worry about your bike rack hitting the ground when backing out of the driveway) and the 2" receiver isn't quite as tucked back behind the rear bumper as the others, which offers easier access to the hitch pin hole for mounting the rack. The Class III hitch provides plenty of capacity for a bike rack...

  • Confirmation of Draw-Tite Trailer Hitch Receiver on a 2018 Audi SQ5
    An aftermarket trailer hitch receiver, like the Draw-Tite # 76183 that is confirmed to fit the 2018 Audi SQ5, are often not designed to install or match a factory hitch receiver. In fact, sometimes when two different manufacturers offer an aftermarket hitch receiver for a specific vehicle, their designs can be completely different from one another.

    The Draw-Tite Class III Max Frame Receiver Hitch part # 76183 is an excellent option for a 2020 Audi Q5. I recommend the Curt Class III Receiver Hitch because the receiver tube opening is tucked behind the rear bumper so that it is not very noticeable from outside the vehicle. Furthermore, it has a nice powder coating which should minimize chips and scratches. I have attached both an install video and photo for you on an Audi Q5 as well as a list of parts you might want to consider if...

    The hitch we offer for your 2018 Audi Q5 is the Draw Tite part # 76183. It has been test fit on the 2018 models and determined to be a confirmed fit by Draw Tite. There may have been some changes between the 2017 and 2018 models but not enough to change the hitch fit. We had the chance to fit the 2019 Q5 and we found that it fit and worked well. See install video below. So we have first hand confirmation the hitch fits as well.

  • Does Draw Tite Hitch for 2019 Audi Q5 Replacing Bumper Beam Affect Safety
    Having a trailer hitch like the Draw Tite # 76183 replace the rear bumper beam of a vehicle like your 2019 Audi Q5 is actually a really common method. Essentially the hitch beam is the same thing as the bumper beam but with a hitch opening attached to it instead.

  • Can A Weight Distribution Hitch Be Installed On A 2019 Audi Q5?
    I can't recommend a weight distribution hitch for your 2019 Audi Q5 because your vehicle design prohibits it. I can recommend the Draw-Tite # 76183 standard Class-III hitch paired with a Curt # 17200 Sway Bar. The benefit of using a weight distribution hitch is the ability to move some of the tongue weight to your tow vehicle's front axle and to the trailer axle. If you can manually manage the distribution of weight in your trailer safely then you could use a standard hitch with sway...

  • Installation Without Trimming Fascia on Audi Q5 with ECO hitch # 306-X7397
    I understand not wanting to cut into the fascia on your bumper on your Audi Q5. Since the EcoHitch # 306-X7397 is a fairly new addition for the Q5, we do not have an install video available. After speaking with EcoHitch, they tell me that installation of this hitch does not require any cutting into the fascia. For what it's worth, I know that customers have also reported that during installation of the Draw-Tite # 76183, the install of that product can be made without having to cut anything.

  • Maximum Tongue Weight Capacity of a 2018 Audi Q5
    According to the owner's manual for a 2018 Audi Q5, the maximum tongue weight capacity for the vehicle is 440 lbs. The factory trailer hitch is more than likely rated higher than this but that is a rather moot point as the vehicle is lower and will be your limiting factor. I do not have any information on the factory trailer hitch for a Q5 but there should be a sticker on the unit which lists both the gross trailer weight (GTW) rating and the tongue weight (TW) rating.

  • Removing Bumper Beam to Install Draw-Tite 76185 Class III Trailer Hitch on 20018 Audi Q5
    The Draw-Tite # 76183 calls for the beam to be removed and not reinstalled because their engineering shows that having the hitch in place provides just as much protection as the bumper beam. The install reuses the existing factory bolts. If you'll be using the hitch for towing purposes, I'd recommend the # 119250KIT trailer wiring harness, the # C45010 ball mount and the # 19260 trailer ball for a 1-7/8 inch or # 63845 for a 2 inch ball.

For a no splice trailer wiring harness too you'd want the ZCI kit part # 119250KIT. If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip,...

  • Hitch And Accessory For An Audi Q5 To Add A Bike Rack That Would Not Effect The Rear Sensors

As far as the back up sensor situation we do not offer an adapter that would get a platform rack high enough that the censors would not be affected. If you were to use a hanging style rack you could add a Roadmaster High-Low Adapter Item # RM-048-10 which gives you a 10-1/4 rise and potentially get the bike...
