Detailed Description

Delphi applies OE-focused dimensional and material analysis to help ensure the aftermarket part matches the original application closely, supporting proper control arm location and suspension geometry. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application. Search terms such as rear control arm bushing for 1996-2001 Audi A4, rear suspension bushing for 1997-2004 Audi A6, and Delphi TD983W rear bushing all point to this OE-style replacement part.

What This Part Helps Address

  • Excessive play in the rear control arm bushing
  • Clunking or knocking from worn rear suspension bushings
  • Uneven tire wear related to rear suspension movement
  • Loose or imprecise rear-end handling feel
  • Suspension noise caused by deteriorated rubber bushing material

Installation Notes and Tips

This is a press-fit rear suspension control arm bushing, so proper removal and installation tools are required. Inspect the control arm, mounting surfaces, and surrounding suspension components before installation. Because bushing wear can affect alignment, a wheel alignment check after repair is recommended for Audi A4 and Audi A6 rear suspension service.

Quality Assurance

Delphi tests this OE-style steering and suspension component across extreme temperature ranges and extended salt-spray exposure to evaluate durability and corrosion resistance. The brand also uses dimensional and material analysis to support fit consistency between OE and aftermarket applications.
