Common Problems This Part Addresses

• Excessive rear suspension play or looseness

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear rearward position fitment before installation and compare the original arm length and mounting style to the replacement part. Because the ball joint is not included and mounting hardware is not included, reuse or source the required service components as needed. A professional alignment is recommended after suspension work to confirm correct rear geometry and tire wear characteristics. Part number TC3265 should be matched to the vehicle application before installation.

Quality Assurance

Delphi subjects its OE-based steering and suspension components to temperature extremes and extended salt-spray exposure testing, along with dimensional and material analysis for fit consistency. This testing approach supports dependable aftermarket replacement performance for Audi TT, Audi TT Quattro, and Volkswagen R32 rear suspension service.
