$27.78 $92.59
Whiteline built the Front Control Arm Lower Inner Rear Bushing for the 2008-2012 Audi S3 (8P). Part number W53196. The kit contains 2 bushings. Whiteline”s note for this fit: Standard Replacement. Position: front.
A control arm bushing is the pivot where the arm joins the chassis or the wheel carrier. Factory rubber is chosen for quiet and comfort, so it squashes under braking, acceleration, and cornering and lets the arm move more than it should. A firmer replacement keeps the arm where it belongs, which steadies the alignment and gives the car a more consistent feel. Polyurethane resists deflection far better than the soft rubber it replaces.
Installation is rated difficult, with about 3 hours of work listed. Plan on a wheel alignment afterward. To go with it on the Audi S3, see Adjustable Rear Sway Bar Link, Adjustable Rear Upper Control Arm Set, and Adjustable Front Sway Bar Link.
