Detailed Description

Delphi TC5842 is a rear upper suspension control arm designed for vehicles that require rear camber and toe adjustment. It is compatible with 2013-2019 Acura ILX, 2006-2015 Honda Civic, and 2006-2011 Acura CSX rear upper positions, including applications noted for minus 4 degree to plus 2 degree camber/toe adjustment. The steel, forged/cast construction supports consistent suspension location, while the included rubber bushings help maintain proper articulation and ride isolation. This part cross-references Honda (e.g., 551A0-JA000) for the same application.

Vehicle Fitment

• Fits 2013-2019 Acura ILX, rear upper, minus 4 degree to plus 2 degree camber/toe
• Fits 2006-2015 Honda Civic, rear upper, minus 4 degree to plus 2 degree camber/toe
• Fits 2006-2011 Acura CSX, rear upper, minus 4 degree to plus 2 degree camber/toe

Common Repair Uses

• Rear suspension looseness or worn control arm bushings
• Improper rear camber or toe settings after alignment
• Clunking or knocking from the rear suspension area
• Uneven tire wear related to rear suspension geometry
• Restoring stable rear wheel location on Acura ILX, Honda Civic, or Acura CSX

Installation Notes

Verify rear upper position, alignment range, and vehicle application before installation. Because this arm is adjustable, final alignment should be performed after installation to set camber and toe within specification. Inspect related suspension components, bushings, and mounting points for wear before completing the repair.

Quality Assurance

Delphi applies OE-focused testing and material analysis to its aftermarket steering and suspension portfolio. This control arm is evaluated for temperature extremes below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, and for corrosion resistance through 720 hours of salt spray exposure to support long-term service performance.
