Delphi TC2452 Suspension Control Arm - Front Left Lower Forward

OE-Style Front Left Lower Forward Control Arm

Delphi TC2452 is a standard replacement suspension control arm for the front left lower forward position. It is built from aluminum and includes rubber bushings for direct-fit service on select Audi applications, including A4, A5, A6, Q5, S4, and S5 models.

Key Features

• Aluminum control arm construction
• Rubber bushings included
• Standard replacement grade
• Non-adjustable design
• Ball joint not included
• Front left lower forward position

Detailed Description

Delphi TC2452 is engineered for the front left lower forward suspension position and follows OE-style dimensional and material requirements for proper fitment. Delphi applies its OE experience to the aftermarket steering and suspension portfolio, with testing that includes extreme temperature exposure from below -40 degrees C to over 120 degrees C and 720 hours of salt spray. That validation helps support consistent performance in demanding road conditions on Audi A4 Quattro, A5 Quattro, A6, Q5, S4, and S5 applications.

This part cross-references Dorman - OE Solutions 521-255 and TRW JTC2106 for the same application. Delphi TC2452 is a direct-fit option for drivers replacing a worn front left lower forward control arm on 2008-2011 Audi A4 Quattro, 2008-2011 Audi A5 Quattro, 2009-2011 Audi Q5, and related listed models.

What It Helps Address

• Front suspension looseness or play
• Clunking or knocking from the lower control arm area
• Uneven tire wear caused by worn suspension geometry
• Steering instability or wandering at the front end
• Rubber bushing deterioration in the front left lower forward arm

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s chassis breakpoints and production dates before ordering, especially for 2008-2011 Audi A4 Quattro and 2011 Audi A5, S4, and S5 applications with date-specific notes. This control arm is non-adjustable and does not include a ball joint, so confirm the existing suspension layout and inspect related hardware and mounting points during service. Professional alignment is recommended after suspension replacement.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-based dimensional and material analysis to support fitment accuracy and consistent replacement quality. The part is tested for temperature extremes and corrosion exposure to help verify durability in real-world suspension service.
