MOOG Chassis Products Steering Tie Rod End P/N:ES801717
If a worn tie rod end is behind loose, wandering steering, replace it with the MOOG CHASSIS tie rod end, part number ES80667. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 2005-2024 Volkswagen Jetta, 2012-2022 Volkswagen Passat and 2009-2023 Volkswagen Tiguan. This is the front right outer tie rod end, connecting the outer end of the steering linkage to the steering knuckle so wheel movement follows the steering input.
The ball stud is heat treated to match or exceed OE requirements to resist premature failure and improve fatigue strength, and precision tolerances make for straightforward installation and alignment. Also fits many Audi and other Volkswagen models — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list of applications.
What is the MOOG ES80667 and what does it do?
It is a front right outer steering tie rod end that connects the outer end of the steering linkage to the steering knuckle, transferring steering input to the front wheel.
Is this the right 2005-2024 Volkswagen Jetta tie rod end?
Yes. The ES80667 is listed for the 2005-2024 Volkswagen Jetta, along with many other Volkswagen and Audi models. Confirm your vehicle in the Buyer's Guide tab.
Is this tie rod end greaseable?
Yes. It uses a greaseable socket that lets you flush in fresh lubricant to push out contaminants, helping reduce corrosion and wear over time.
What are signs my tie rod end may need replacing?
Common signs include loose or wandering steering, uneven front tire wear, a clunk or play when turning, and steering that feels imprecise. Have the cause diagnosed before replacing.
Which position is this tie rod end?
This is the front right (passenger side) outer tie rod end. Order the correct side and position for your vehicle as needed.
