Product Description

Restore the precise handling and ride comfort of your BMW with this Arrowhead control arm bush for the front axle inner front, suitable for both left-hand and right-hand sides. This control arm bush sits within the suspension system, helping to absorb road shocks and maintain correct wheel alignment during steering and braking.

This part is specifically engineered for select BMW models, including the X5 E70 (2006-2013) and X6 E71/E72 (2007-2014). It is designed to fit the inner front position on the front axle and is suitable for both sides of the vehicle. Always confirm your BMW's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure compatibility.

Common symptoms of a worn or damaged control arm bush include clunking noises when driving over bumps, excessive vibration through the steering wheel, uneven tyre wear, poor handling, and wandering steering. If you notice these issues, the control arm bush may need attention.

It is recommended to replace the control arm bush if you experience any of these symptoms or during scheduled suspension maintenance. Timely replacement ensures safe handling and prolongs the life of other suspension components.
