Removal and Replacement of Front Control Arm

Model: Audi A4 B5 - Years 1994-2000
Part: Control arm

This video illustrates how to remove and replace the front control arm on your vehicle. If your control arm moves and has play at the bushing, it means it is worn out and it’s time to replace it. Once the wheel and tire are removed, locate the control arm to be replaced and start loosening all its mounting nuts. After loosening the nuts, remove them and begin extracting the control arm by unscrewing it. Next, clean the area where the new control arm will be installed and start the installation by reversing the processes.
