Fitment Notes

  • Always match OEM reference number(s) and vehicle details before ordering. Confirm exact fitment using VIN, engine code, or chassis number if multiple variants exist.
  • Primarily designed for Audi B5 platforms (A4, A6, A8) and VW Passat B5 / B5.5. Also covers some B6, B7, B8, and C5 / C6 models — verify OEM cross-reference for your specific vehicle.
  • Complete 12-piece front suspension rebuild — replaces all upper, lower, rear, and curved control arms plus tie rod ends and stabiliser links.
  • OEM-level quality kit, guaranteed for 12 months from date of purchase.

Installation / Use / Maintenance Tips

  • Support the front of the vehicle securely on jack stands and remove both front wheels.
  • Label each arm position carefully during removal — this multi-link front end has distinct left/right and upper/lower arms.
  • Inspect related bushes, ball joints, boots, and mounting hardware before fitting the new components.
  • Replace all arms at the same time for balanced handling and even tyre wear.
  • Torque all fasteners to manufacturer specifications. A full four-wheel alignment is essential after fitting.

Good Tool
Size: One Size, Style: Bottle Opener
This thing is great at opening bottles, and it has a Klein handle. Perfect for the electrician in your life, even if that's yourself. I had to knock off a star because the handle is not quite as good as other Klein tools. The plastic is not as clear. The TIP-IDENT bottlecap marking is off-center and not fully printed. The bottle opener sticks out at a slight angle. This does not affect the performance, but it does detract from the novelty somewhat.

expands work space effectively
Initially it was a bit challenging to set up as I was not fortunate enough to have assistance (the instructions tell you that you need two people for part of the installation process). I also had to play around with placement a bit as my available installation space was extremely limited and neither of the listed/'suggested mounting situations worked for me; however, with some head-scratching and debating with myself, I finally figured how to make it work how and where I needed it it, and all was good!! It functions well, and holds adequate weight, and looks really good with the light lacquer finish...the only thing I will say to a potential buyer is to make sure you have room to walk past it easily when its closed down because it still sticks out a few inches even when closed down...overall, very happy with this item and would purchase again.
