Delphi Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly P/N:TC514
Help restore precise wheel location and smooth steering with the Delphi control arm and ball joint assembly, MPN TC1812. This front left upper forward unit is a direct-fit replacement for many vehicles, among them the 2007-2009 Audi S8, 2006-2010 Audi A6 and 2005-2010 Audi A6 Quattro — see the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine-level fitment.
Delphi applies its OE steering expertise to this aftermarket assembly and tests to the extreme: parts withstand temperatures below -40°C and over 120°C and endure 720 hours of salt spray, backed by extensive dimensional and material analysis for close OE-to-aftermarket compatibility.
The control arm locates the wheel and pivots with suspension travel, while the integrated ball joint lets the steering and suspension articulate. Signs the original may need replacing include clunking over uneven pavement, wandering steering, or uneven tire wear; if a failed control arm or ball joint is the cause, this assembly replaces it.

Is this the right 2006-2010 Audi A6 control arm?
It's a direct-fit front left upper forward assembly for the 2006-2010 Audi A6, and it fits many other vehicles, including the 2007-2009 Audi S8 and 2005-2010 Audi A6 Quattro. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Does TC1812 include the ball joint?
Yes. TC1812 combines the control arm and its ball joint in one unit, so you replace both together as a single assembly.
What testing does Delphi do on this control arm?
Delphi control arms undergo 100% crack and ultrasonic flaw detection, with ball studs machined to micron tolerances, robot welding, and 720 hours of salt-spray exposure.
Which corner does TC1812 mount on?
It is cataloged as the front left upper forward control arm, so it fits the front left upper forward position on the listed applications.
What are signs my control arm or ball joint needs replacing?
Clunking over bumps, loose or wandering steering, and uneven tire wear can signal a worn control arm or ball joint. Have the cause diagnosed; if this part is at fault, TC1812 replaces it.
