CURT parts for the Mini Cooper Countryman
Wiring, ball mount and the rest
A bike rack needs nothing but the hitch. A trailer needs lights, and CURT 56236 ($103.98 CAD) is the four-flat harness that plugs into the Cooper Countryman's factory connector for 2013. No cutting, no scotch-locks.
Then a ball mount sized to the receiver. Pick the drop or rise that keeps the trailer level, and match the ball to the coupler. The ball mount guide covers both in two minutes.
Canadian winters eat hitch hardware. Salt and brine get into the receiver and the trailer plug, so a smear of grease on the pin, a cap on the receiver and a rinse under the bumper in spring keep a CURT hitch looking new for years. The rust and salt care guide has the full routine.
Mini Cooper Countryman hitch questions
Which CURT hitch fits my Mini Cooper Countryman?
It depends on the year. CURT 115223 is the newest, for 2017 through 2024, and the table above matches every other year to its part. Open your year page and the exact hitch, price and wiring are on it.
Can I put a bike rack on a Cooper Countryman with this hitch?
Yes. A loaded rack counts against the hitch's tongue weight (200 lb on CURT 115223), so a four-bike platform rack with bikes on it is the most you'd want on it.
Can I install the hitch myself?
CURT rates CURT 115223 professional, about 90 minutes, so expect some trim or drilling work. The main body tucks behind the bumper so only the receiver shows. The install video above is the real job, uncut.
How much can a Cooper Countryman tow with a CURT hitch?
The hitch is rated from 2,000 lb to 2,000 lb depending on the part, but the Cooper Countryman's own tow rating in the owner's manual is the ceiling. The lower of the two numbers is your limit, every time.
