Keep your steering tight and precise with the Delphi tie rod (MPN TL523), the LEFT-side steering tie rod end assembly built for the 1998 Volkswagen BEETLE. It connects the steering linkage to the steering knuckle so your inputs translate into accurate wheel movement, and it drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the listed application. See the Buyer's Guide tab for full engine-level fitment.

  • OE-derived engineering: Delphi applies its OE steering expertise to this aftermarket part, tested to extremes for OE performance — parts withstand temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt spray.
  • Precision ball stud: ball studs are machined to micron tolerances for durable, smooth joint operation.
  • Fatigue tested: Delphi tie rods are fatigue tested to avoid failure.
  • Corrosion protection & complete job: anti-corrosion protection is applied to each part, and Delphi includes the necessary accessories for a complete job.

A worn Delphi tie rod end can show up as loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, or clunking when turning; if the tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it. Extensive dimensional and material analysis helps ensure close compatibility with the original part.
