The Curt Trailer Hitch, # C13136, has the highest towing and tongue weight capacities, 5,000 lbs towing and 750 lbs tongue weight, but you will be limited to the maximum towing capacity of your Q5. The towing capacity should be listed in your owners manual. Curt also states that a stabilization strap, # 18050, must be used with all non-trailer loads such as bike racks and cargo carriers.
