Trailer Hitch Recommendation for 2024 BMW X3 M40i to Carry Bike Rack
Updated 10/22/2025 | Published 09/17/2025
Question:
Hi. Currently driving a 2024 BMW X3 M40i, equipped with the DAPP Driver assistance professional package....all those driving and parking sensors!. Im looking to possibly add a hitch primarily for a bike rack and bike hauling, and am interested in a hitch set-up that WILL NOT interfere with the DAPP . Any suggestions? I am familiar with the Stealth Hitch. Can you provide any solid recs as well as links/product s that will fit? I had great experience with e-trailer in the past so I figured I would check in with you all. Thx! - Darren

Hey Darren, we have the Stealth hitch part # SH46FR that is a fit for your 2024 BMW X3 M40i and does not affect any of the parking sensors that you have. It would work great to carry a bike rack like you asked about and it also has the benefit of having the lower hitch opening be removable so that it would be totally out of sight when not in use! What kind of bike rack do you have?
