Product Description

This Arrowhead tie rod assembly (RH, 340mm rack end) is designed for precise steering response in select Audi and Volkswagen models. The tie rod is a critical part of your vehicle's steering system, linking the steering rack to the wheel hub and ensuring smooth directional changes. With its robust metallic finish and integrated ball joint, this assembly helps maintain accurate wheel alignment and safe vehicle handling.

Compatibility covers certain Audi and Volkswagen vehicles, including popular models like the Golf, Jetta, Beetle, and A3. Always confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before placing an order to ensure proper fitment.

Common symptoms of a worn or failing tie rod assembly include uneven tyre wear, loose or unresponsive steering, clunking noises when turning, vibration in the steering wheel, or difficulty maintaining alignment. If you experience any of these issues, it may be time to inspect your steering components.

Replacement of the tie rod assembly should be carried out when you notice play in the steering, excessive noise, or after an impact that could have damaged the steering linkage. Timely replacement helps prevent further damage to steering and suspension parts and ensures continued safe handling.
