Rear Suspension Control Arm Replacement

Model: Audi Q7 4L, MK 1 - Years 2006-2015
Part: Control arm

Replacing the rear suspension control arm is very simple since there is enough maneuvering space and no other components need to be removed. Lift the vehicle on the lift and remove the rear wheel. Next, remove the bolt that secures the control arm to the hub support, and then the one that secures the other end of the control arm to the rear subframe (apply some penetrating spray). After removing the old control arm, insert the new one, aligning the bushing holes perfectly, and insert the bolts, ensuring to properly secure the corresponding nuts.
