Detailed Product Description

• Clunking or knocking from the front steering linkage

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle is a 2007-2012 Acura RDX with the inner steering position before ordering. Inspect the related steering components, alignment settings, and thread engagement during installation. Because this part is adjustable and uses male threaded ends, proper alignment after replacement is recommended to restore steering geometry.

Quality Assurance

Delphi tests steering components under extreme temperature and corrosion conditions, including sub-zero and high-heat exposure plus extended salt-spray testing. That OE-focused validation supports consistent aftermarket fit and durability for the Delphi TA5018 inner tie rod end.
