Did you ever decide between the two sizes? If so, what did you go with?

Anyone fitted Motion XT XL on Q5? Any pics? Does trunk still open?

There is weight limit. Just be careful. It is not much but cant remember the max weight limit for loading the roof.

scuba diving, spear gun, fishing rods, camping tent, slipping bags should be fine.

I believe it is 130 lbs. I went with the Audi one... used my goodwill payment for it... works great, looks like it was made for the Q5...

Barraged agreed.My only peeve is why Audi chose to have it ride so nose up. It's the crossbars of course and I can't help but think that those clever Germans did it for a valid reason.Europe actually conducts thorough safety evaluations of vehicles with their roof racks.They take it seriously. I believe Redd resolved this issue by adding some kind of polymer spacer.

I have a XL currently on my van and it is GIGANTIC. Too big for the Q5.

I like how the Alpine style fits and looks. I have the Thule Motion XT alpine on the Q5 and it is really sweet. Even a box this trim hits the hatch but you can program the hatch to not raise all the way. Lose maybe an inch of room?

Mine is the old model. The new model is even better and more streamlined. Oh and it blocks your antenna so you may have issues with Satellite Radio, Navigation, and Maps in some areas.

So Motion XT L is the biggest the Q5 will support ?
