Audi A6 Control Arms, Suspension Rods & Parts

What connects your Audi A6’s wheels to its chassis is an array of links and rods restricting the movement of the unsprung assembly. Fairly complicated and expensive, the system lets you have the independent suspension setup ensuring the handling and comfort that you love your Audi A6 for. Control arms belong to those links. Their responsibility is to prevent the transversal shift of the wheels. Traditionally, control arms mount with a hinge from the inner end and the ball joint from the outer end. Susceptible to normal wear, control arms have a relatively short lifespan. And it may be even shorter due to the following reasons.

Much like the suspension in general, control arms suffer from the impact of bumpy roads, especially at speed. Another thing that can dramatically shorten their lifespan is overloading. Finally, the term depends greatly on the quality of these components themselves. The stronger parts you get, the longer they will serve. One of the most common suspension issues on Audi cars is worn or damaged control arm bushings. Under strong forces of acceleration or braking, rubber bushings tend to crack. Among our Audi A6 control arms & components, you will find OE-quality replacements at reasonable prices.
