All Hardware and Installation Instructions Included!
Whatever your task at hand -- whether it's launching that boat before daybreak, setting up your camper before the rush or getting a final load to the dump before close -- CURT class 3 trailer hitches offer the strength needed for serious towing. They make it easy to hitch up and Bring It, offering a vehicle-specific fit and the weight capacity to handle a variety of trailers. Custom class 3 hitches are the most common type of receiver hitch for pickup trucks and SUVs. Because of their weight range, they are also found on full-size cars, crossovers and minivans. Each custom-fit class 3 hitch package is made for vehicle-specific mounting. This particular kit fits certain years of the Audi Q7 (see application info to verify vehicle compatibility). It provides a weight carrying capacity of 7,000 lbs. GTW and 700 lbs. TW. CURT class 3 trailer hitches are typically used to attach and haul utility trailers, boat trailers, campers, snowmobile or ATV haulers and more (NOTE: Never exceed the lowest-rated towing component). Each class 3 hitch has a 2" receiver tube and is tested in accordance with SAE J684 for safety. To ensure that CURT class 3 receiver hitches have what it takes for serious trailering, they are designed using a hands-on approach and are constructed with rugged, high-strength steel and precise welding. We also protect our class 3 hitches in a co-cured finish of liquid A-coat and black powder coat for superior resistance to rust, chipping and UV damage.
Stress is the last thing you should feel when towing a trailer -- whether you're hauling your RV to that favorite camping destination, your ATVs up to the hunting grounds or your fishing boat to the new hidden hotspot. At CURT, we think your towing equipment should add to the enjoyment of your experience, not detract from it. CURT custom wiring connectors are the easiest way to outfit your vehicle with a CURT trailer wiring connection. They are built with some of the most advanced technology in the industry, and each one is custom-fitted to work with a specific make and model. Some automotive manufacturers install a special socket on the vehicle to be used for vehicle-to-trailer wiring. Though this special socket is not equipped on every vehicle, a CURT custom wiring connector (also called a T-connector) utilizes the socket for simple, stress-free installation. Rather than requiring you to cut, splice and solder into your vehicle's wiring system, the custom wiring connector uses a single OEM-compatible plug and instantly provides a standard vehicle-to-trailer wiring connection, typically in the form a 4-way flat. All CURT custom wiring connectors are made vehicle-specific for the easiest possible installation and the best fit. This particular connector provides a 4-way flat socket while retaining use of the existing OEM socket. It is designed to be a custom wiring option for a variety of vehicles (see application info to verify fitment with your vehicle). It comes with a dust cover to keep the connector socket clean when not in use.

CURT 13277 is a weight-carrying receiver hitch designed for the 2017 Audi Q7 SUV. It allows you to tow trailers up to 7,000 lbs with a maximum tongue weight of 700 lbs, subject to your vehicle manufacturer's towing capacity limits.
CURT 13277 is specifically designed for the 2017 Audi Q7 SUV. The manual does not indicate compatibility with other model years or vehicles. Contact CURT technical support at 877-287-8634 to confirm fitment for your specific vehicle.
The manual does not specify whether the battery must be disconnected. However, you will be disconnecting electrical connectors from lights and sensors along the bumper fascia during installation. For safety, consider consulting your vehicle's service manual or contacting CURT technical support at 877-287-8634 before beginning.
The first step is to remove 4 screws along each wheel well using a T25 Torx bit screwdriver. Then pull the wheel liner back to expose an additional screw for removal.
Remove screws in this order: (1) 4 screws along each wheel well with T25 Torx bit, pull wheel liner back and remove 1 additional screw; (2) 4 screws from bottom of each wheel well liner and 4 screws from middle underside area of fascia; (3) 2 screws from body trim piece at upper wheel well. Disconnect all electrical connectors from lights and sensors. Gently pull off the bumper fascia starting near the wheels and moving towards the trunk.
Place the hitch on the end panel and the bumper beam on top of the hitch. Raise both into position, aligning the holes with the vehicle's weldnuts. Loosely secure with the 4 bolts on each side (8 bolts total) that were removed from the bumper beam. Then torque all bolts to 58 ft-lbs.
Unclip the kick sensor wire from inside the bumper fascia and move it away from the trim area. Measure the trim area on the fascia to the dimensions shown: 7.25" width, 3.50" height, and 1.75" from the center line. Mark the area with masking tape and trim the section using a rotary tool.
The kick sensor wire is unclipped from inside the bumper fascia during the trimming step and moved away from the trim area. After the fascia is reinstalled, the wire is re-attached behind the receiver tube. Note that sensors may require additional dealer recalibration after installation.
First, reinstall the fascia that was removed in step 4. Then re-attach the kick sensor wire after the fascia is fully reinstalled.
The manual notes that sensors may require additional dealer recalibration after installation. You should contact your Audi dealer to determine if recalibration is necessary for your specific vehicle and sensors.
Safety glasses must be worn at all times while installing this product.
All non-trailer (wheel-less) loads applied to this hitch must be supported by CURT 18050 stabilizing straps. See the CURT catalog or visit www.curtmfg.com for further information.
Periodically check the receiver hitch to ensure all fasteners are tight and all structural components are sound. This should be done regularly to maintain safe operation.

Use a T25 Torx bit screwdriver to remove all screws from the bumper fascia and wheel well liners. The manual specifies T25 Torx bits for all screw removal steps.
An 18mm socket is required to remove the 4 bolts on each side of the bumper beam (8 bolts total).
The 6" socket extension is listed as a required tool. It is used with the 18mm socket to reach and remove the bumper beam bolts.
A rotary tool is used to trim the bumper fascia section. Mark the trim area with masking tape using the dimensions provided (7.25" width, 3.50" height, 1.75" from center line) before trimming.
Plastic panel removal tools may be used to ease removal of the body trim piece at the upper wheel well during step 3 of the installation.
Ensure the hitch and bumper beam are raised into position correctly, aligning the holes with the weldnuts. If alignment is still difficult, weldnut cleaning may be required. Clean the weldnuts and try again. If problems persist, contact CURT technical support at 877-287-8634.
Verify that you have trimmed the fascia to the correct dimensions: 7.25" width, 3.50" height, and 1.75" from the center line. Use the trim diagram provided in the manual as a reference. If the fascia still does not fit, contact CURT technical support at 877-287-8634.

The 55384 is a T-connector that adds trailer wiring capability to vehicles. It connects to the vehicle's existing wiring harness to provide a 7-way connector for trailer lights and accessories. The product comes with a protective cap and uses locking tabs to ensure secure connections.
Yes. You must disconnect the negative battery terminal before beginning installation. After disconnecting, fasten the wire down and away from the battery. Reconnect the negative battery terminal only after the T-connector installation is complete.
The location depends on whether your vehicle has a factory 7-way connector. For vehicles without a factory 7-way, access the wiring harness behind the driver's side rear bumper (position T3). For vehicles with a factory 7-way, locate it behind the center of the rear bumper (position T4). The manual includes a wiring location guide with diagrams showing these positions.
For vehicles without a factory 7-way: Insert the T-connector housing directly into the vehicle's wiring harness housing at position T3 (behind driver's side rear bumper), then place the protective cap on the remaining plug end. For vehicles with a factory 7-way: Separate the factory socket from the 7-way connector at position T4 (behind center of rear bumper), then insert the T-connector between the factory housing and the 7-way housing. In both cases, ensure connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place.
Ensure the connectors are fully inserted with locking tabs in place. The protective cap should be securely placed on the remaining plug end. After installation, test the function by connecting a test light or properly wired trailer to verify that all circuits are working correctly.
Yes. Before inserting the T-connector housing, check the mating surface of the housing to make sure it is free of rust and dirt. Clean if necessary to ensure a proper connection.
Do not exceed the product rating or the tow vehicle's lamp load rating, whichever is lower. Consult your vehicle owner's manual or contact the vehicle manufacturer for your specific lamp load rating.
After installation is complete, test the function by connecting a test light or properly wired trailer to the T-connector. This verifies that all circuits are functioning properly before towing.
