Audi A4 Tie Rod End

The highly important component that makes the steering wheel move confidently in the Audi A4 is the Tie Rod End. This very small joint is hidden under the front subframe and links the steering rack to each knuckle so that the flick of the wheel results in an exact turn of direction to keep the car straight and in line. The actual steering arm is a complete steering arm that has two parts; the inner Audi Tie Rod End is fixed directly to the rack and the outer Tie Rod End connects the knuckle, and their Tie Rod End design is of the ball-and-socket type to provide the pivot motion as the suspension rises and falls but still maintains the alignment. The fundamental design has not changed over the years across each generation of Audi since the task is the same, but minor differences in length or pitch of the thread correspond to the geometry of a particular suspension and are not a change in how the system functions. The drivers do not think much concerning the hardware, but the rough steel casing and the greased ball stud dampen the impact and concussion of potholes and help make the tires go wherever they are aimed. Once wear occurs, the loss of steering, disproportionate tire wear, or the wandering feel are quick reminders to the owners of the importance of this Tie Rod End to the sure-footed nature that one anticipates in Audi. That dependability assists any Audi A4 to reach the exact same level of handling desired by the Audi.

Choose original equipment manufacturer Tie Rod End for great performance and strong durability. They use Audi's official craftsmanship and high-grade materials, and meet strict quality standards.
