Help cut suspension noise and vibration with the Delphi control arm bushing TD440W, a front lower inner bushing designed to OE standards. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1998-2005 Volkswagen Passat, 2004-2009 Audi S4 and 1996-2009 Audi A4. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list and engine details.
Delphi's OE safety technology is fitted to millions of vehicles worldwide, and the company applies that OE expertise to its aftermarket steering line. The bushing sits at the pivot where the front lower control arm attaches to the vehicle. It cushions that joint as the suspension moves and helps limit noise and vibration reaching the cabin.
- Tested to the extreme: Delphi tests its parts for OE performance. They withstand temperatures below -40°C and above 120°C and are exposed to 720 hours of salt spray.
- Designed to OE standards: Extensive dimensional and material analysis is aimed at close compatibility between the OE part and this aftermarket part.
- Noise and vibration: Manufactured for consistent life and to reduce noise and vibration.
