Hey guys, this section has been a little quiet lately or is always quiet…understandable considering most people that own VW/Audi SUVs probably aren’t forum members, but like any car I own, I enjoy researching anything and everything before purchasing it. I’d like to share some items I’ve added to my wife’s Q5 recently so that if anyone is looking to buy a Q5 in the near future, currently owns one (like Cory), or has a friend with one that is discussing accessories hopefully you can use this information.
So recently my wife and I decided to get a set of bikes, there are a million trails around here and our son is getting old enough to really start enjoying the outdoors with us. This posed a problem since I recently sold my truck, so it was time to look for a hitch and bike rack for the Q5.
