It fits many vehicles, among them the 2006-2010 Volkswagen Passat, 2018-2025 Volkswagen Tiguan and 2015 Volkswagen Golf, as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.
A ball joint is the pivot between the lower control arm and the steering knuckle. It lets the wheel travel up and down with the suspension and turn with the steering. Mevotech engineers its Supreme parts in-house, with application-specific upgrades aimed at durability and performance. The line is built for high-usage commercial and passenger vehicles, SUVs, fleets and working trucks, and uses Labor Saver™ designs, tools and hardware to make installation quicker and easier.
- Sintered bearings: Designed for longer-lasting toughness.
- Part-specific hex nut provided: Helps speed up the ball joint install.
- Protective surface treatment: Helps resist corrosion and limit rust build-up.

Signs this part may need replacing include clunking from the front suspension over bumps, loose or wandering steering, uneven tire wear and visible play at the joint. Other suspension parts can cause the same symptoms, so diagnose the cause before replacing the joint.
