Product Details
This Whiteline Rear Trailing Arm Front Bushing fits the 2004-2014 Audi A3 Base. This part is for the rear of the vehicle. The chassis code on the listing is 8P. The part number is W0504. You receive 4 bushings, 2 tubes, 4 washers, an install guide, and grease. The listing names the Base trim.
Bushings work out of sight, but they decide how well a suspension holds its geometry. A soft or tired trailing 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. Polyurethane resists deflection far better than the soft rubber it replaces.
Installation is rated moderate, with about 2 hours of work listed. An alignment is required after installation. To go with it on the Audi A3, see Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Front Control Arm Lower Inner Rear Bushing, and Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link.
Features
- Self-lubricating: Internal grease reservoirs keep the bushing lubricated as it works.
- Grease: Supplied with molybdenum disulfide grease for extended service life.
- Bushing material: The bushing material is polyurethane, a firmer choice than rubber.
- Bushing compound: The elastomer formulation is chosen to shrug off oil, grease, ozone, and the elements.
- Install guide: Step-by-step installation instructions come with it.
- Finish: The metal is powder coated, which resists corrosion and wear.
