Delphi Steering Tie Rod End P/N:TA5696
Keep your steering tight and responsive with the Delphi Steering Tie Rod End TA1583, an outer tie rod end that links the steering system to the wheel and helps transmit steering input to the front wheel. It's a direct-fit replacement for the 1996-1999 Audi A4, 1996-1999 Audi A4 Quattro, 1997-1999 Audi A8 and 1997-1999 Audi A8 Quattro.
Delphi builds its aftermarket steering portfolio on its OE expertise, testing to extremes for OE-level performance: parts withstand temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt spray, while extensive dimensional and material analysis targets close compatibility between the OE and aftermarket part.
Worn tie rod ends can show up as loose or wandering steering, uneven front tire wear, or a clunk when turning; if a failed outer tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it. Have an alignment performed after installation.
