Detailed Product Overview

Delphi TD1648W is designed for vehicles that use a rear lower rearward control arm bushing in the suspension system. The rubber construction helps isolate road vibration while supporting the control arm through normal suspension travel. Delphi applies OE-focused engineering to its aftermarket steering and suspension portfolio, using dimensional and material analysis to help ensure proper fit and function. This part cross-references Beck/Arnley 102-6980 and MOOG Chassis Products RK642309 for the same application. Common vehicle coverage includes Volkswagen Passat, Volkswagen Beetle, Volkswagen Jetta, Volkswagen Tiguan, Volkswagen Golf, Volkswagen GTI, Audi A3, Audi Q3, and Audi TT Quattro applications listed in the fitment data.

Common Issues This Bushing Can Address

  • Excessive rear suspension play
  • Clunking or knocking from worn control arm bushings
  • Uneven tire wear caused by suspension looseness
  • Imprecise rear suspension response
  • Vibration transfer from deteriorated rubber bushings

Installation Notes and Tips

Confirm the exact rear suspension position before ordering, since this part is listed for Rear Lower Rearward and Rear Lower applications depending on vehicle. Press-fit bushings typically require proper removal and installation tools to avoid damaging the control arm or the new bushing. Verify all dimensions against the original part, including inside diameter, outside diameter, length, height, and wall thickness, before installation. For vehicle-specific fitment, refer to the application tab and match the model, year, and position exactly.

Quality Assurance

Delphi subjects this bushing to temperature and salt-spray testing and uses OE dimensional and material analysis to support fit consistency and service durability. Part number TD1648W is built as a standard replacement for select Volkswagen and Audi rear suspension applications.
