Product Description

This Arrowhead control arm bush is designed for the front axle lower outer rear position, suitable for both left and right sides of select BMW models. It plays a crucial role in your vehicle’s steering, suspension, and axle system by connecting the control arm to the chassis, allowing for controlled movement and reducing road vibrations.

Specifically engineered for BMW vehicles, this bush is compatible with various models in the X5 and X6 range produced between 2006 and 2019. Accurate fitment is essential for maintaining proper suspension geometry and ensuring a smooth, stable ride. Please confirm your BMW’s model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure compatibility.

Worn or damaged control arm bushes can cause symptoms such as uneven tyre wear, clunking noises over bumps, vague or wandering steering, and excessive vibration through the steering wheel. You may also notice instability during braking or cornering, and a general reduction in ride comfort.

If you experience any of these issues, it is advisable to inspect and, if necessary, replace the control arm bush promptly. Timely replacement helps restore proper suspension function and prevents further wear to related components such as tyres and ball joints.
