Delphi Suspension Control Arm Bushing P/N:TD4517W
Help reduce noise and vibration in your BMW's front suspension with the Delphi Suspension Control Arm Bushing TD344W. This bushing seats in the front lower rearward position and drops in as a direct-fit replacement for many BMW models, among them the 1996-2002 BMW Z3, 1991-1999 BMW 318i and 1992-1999 BMW 318is. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list of applications.
This suspension control arm bushing locates the control arm and cushions road input. Worn bushings can show up as clunking, imprecise steering, or vibration — if a failed bushing is the cause, this replaces it. Consider servicing both sides together for balanced handling.

This part cross-references / interchanges with the following part numbers:
What does a suspension control arm bushing do?
It cushions the connection between the control arm and the chassis, locating the arm while absorbing road input and vibration. When it wears, the arm can move more than intended, affecting handling.
Where does the TD344W mount on the vehicle?
The catalog lists it for the front lower control arm in the rearward position on the covered BMW applications.
Is this the right Z3 control arm bushing for a 1996-2002 BMW Z3?
Yes, it is listed for the 1996-2002 BMW Z3 and many other BMW models, among them the 1991-1999 BMW 318i and 1992-1999 BMW 318is. Check the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
What are signs this bushing may need replacing?
Clunking over the front suspension, imprecise or wandering steering, or vibration can be signs. Diagnose the cause first, since these symptoms can have other sources.
Does it come with installation accessories?
Yes. Delphi includes the necessary accessories for a complete job. For balanced handling, consider replacing the bushing on both sides together.
