Mounting Options For 7-Way Trailer Connector On a 2015 BMW X5 35D M Sport  

The Class III Curt Trailer Hitch #C13144 does require the use of a stabilizer strap like part #18050 to comply with the warranty. Instead of going with the Curt option I recommend using the etrailer.com Trailer Hitch #e98839 or the Draw-Tite #75876…

The Curt Cam Buckle Stabilizing Strap #18050 is usually used on Class I or Class II hitches to help distribute the weight on them. Since your hitch #C13136 for your 2013 Ausi Q5 is a Class III hitch, then it does not need the stabilizing strap. If…

Hello Kevin, thanks for reaching out. As far as the 2017 BMW X5, fitment really depends on what hitch you are looking at. For example, the Curt Class 3 Hitch #13077 fill fit both the M models and non-M models. So in other words, it fits all models of…

I checked with Stealth Hitches and the correct one for your X5 xDrive 35i M Sport is item #SH79VR. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your BMW with included hardware. The Stealth Hitches item #SH79VR includes a 2" receiver that can only be…
