Quiet the clunks and keep body roll in check with the Beck/Arnley Suspension Stabilizer Bar Link 101-5628, a direct-fit vw Jetta stabilizer bar link that also serves a wide range of Audi and Volkswagen models. This end link ties the stabilizer (sway) bar to the suspension so the bar can resist body lean through corners; depending on the application it installs in the front or rear position.
Beck/Arnley builds this as an application-specific, OE-replacement link designed for foreign nameplates. Worn links often announce themselves with clunking, rattling, or knocking over bumps and through turns as the ball studs develop play. Fitment spans 40 applications, including the 2005-2023 Volkswagen Jetta, 2006-2023 Volkswagen GTI, 2009-2023 Volkswagen Tiguan, and 2006-2013, 2015-2020, and 2022-2023 Audi A3. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full Audi and Volkswagen list. Links wear per side, so inspect the opposite link and replace both if worn for balanced handling.
