Retrofit Kit Trailer Hitch with Removable Ball

Description

The retrofit kit trailer coupling with detachable ball head corresponds to the standard special equipment detachable trailer coupling (SA 235). The trailer coupling is suitable for towing loads of 1,100 kg to 1,800 kg (depending on engine) and a drawbar load of up to 75 kg. After installation, the retrofit kit must be added to the vehicle order by coding. A special feature compared to competitive offerings is the trailer stability control: the vehicle's standard DSC dynamic control takes into account the special conditions of driving with a trailer and thus increases safety. For this reason, retrofitting is always accompanied by coding of the control electronics by the dealer. It also has the effect of deactivating any electronic parking aid that may be present when reverse gear is engaged in trailer mode. The trailer stability control is a system integrated in the DSC and is activated via the assignment of the socket at the rear. The trailer hitch is also suitable for mounting a bicycle carrier. For vehicles without comfort access (SA 322), the BDC (Body Domain Control) must also be ordered and replaced. Only in conjunction with thermal insulation rear bumper.
