Product Details
This Whiteline Front Control Arm Lower Inner Front Bushing fits the 2009-2017 Volkswagen Tiguan S, SE, SEL. Drivetrain: FWD. Position: front. Trims named on the listing: S, SE, and SEL. In the box: 4 bushings and 2 tubes. Whiteline part number: W0503.
Bushings work out of sight, but they decide how well a suspension holds its geometry. A soft or tired control arm bushing allows play that shows up as vague steering, a wandering feel under braking, or a clunk over bumps. Fitting a firmer one takes that slack out. The polyurethane used here deflects much less than the original rubber under the same load.
Whiteline rates the install as difficult and lists about 2.5 hours. Get the car aligned once it is back on the ground. Working on the same car? We also list Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link, and Front and Rear Sway Bar Kit for the Tiguan.
