Detailed Description

Delphi TA3179 steering tie rod end is engineered for the front right outer position on 2013-2016 Mini Cooper Countryman and 2013-2016 Mini Cooper Paceman models. As a standard replacement steering component, it is built with a steel housing, polyoxymethylene bearing material, and chloroprene rubber dust boot to support consistent steering linkage operation. Delphi applies OE-focused dimensional and material analysis to help match the original part’s fit and function, and the component is tested across extreme temperature and corrosion conditions for durability in demanding service environments. If you are replacing a worn Mini Cooper Countryman tie rod end or a Mini Cooper Paceman right outer steering end, TA3179 provides a direct service solution for steering correction and front-end maintenance.

This part cross-references BMW/Mini OE number 32 10 9 808 840 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Loose or imprecise steering feel at the front right outer linkage
• Uneven tire wear caused by worn steering geometry components
• Clunking or play from a deteriorated tie rod end joint
• Steering pull or alignment instability after component wear
• Contamination-related wear when the original dust boot is damaged

Installation Notes and Tips

Install TA3179 at the front right outer steering position only on the listed Mini applications. After replacement, a professional wheel alignment is recommended to restore steering geometry. Verify thread direction, thread diameter, and position before installation, and inspect adjacent steering components for wear while the system is apart.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-based engineering and material analysis for aftermarket steering parts, with validation that includes extreme temperature exposure and extended salt-spray testing to support corrosion resistance and dimensional consistency.
