Delphi Steering Tie Rod End P/N:TA5696
Keep your steering tight and responsive with the Delphi Steering Tie Rod End TA1980, an inner tie rod end that connects the steering linkage and transfers input to the wheels. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2000-2006 Audi TT and 2000-2006 Audi TT Quattro — see the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment.
Delphi brings its OE steering expertise to the aftermarket, testing to extremes for OE-level performance: parts withstand temperatures below -40°C and above 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt spray, while extensive dimensional and material analysis is used to match the OE part closely.
Worn tie rod ends can show up as loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear, or a clunk from the front end. If a worn inner tie rod end is the cause, this part replaces it.
