Product Description

This Arrowhead Control Arm Front Lower LH is designed for use in the front suspension system of selected Audi and Volkswagen models. The control arm is a vital component, connecting the wheel hub to the chassis and allowing for controlled movement and stability while driving. Its robust construction ensures it can withstand the stresses of daily driving, supporting both steering and suspension functions.

This specific control arm is compatible with certain Audi A4 (B5, B6), A6, and Volkswagen Passat models from the mid-1990s to mid-2000s. It is positioned on the front lower left (driver’s side for right-hand drive vehicles). Please confirm your vehicle’s model, year, engine size, and engine code to ensure accurate fitment before purchasing.

Common symptoms of a worn or failing control arm include clunking noises from the front suspension, uneven tyre wear, poor handling or wandering steering, and excessive vibration through the steering wheel. You may also notice alignment issues or instability when braking or cornering.

Replacing the front lower control arm is recommended if you experience any of these symptoms or during suspension overhauls. Timely replacement helps restore precise steering, ride comfort, and overall vehicle safety. Always have your suspension checked by a qualified technician if you suspect an issue.
