Change Auto Suspension Arm

Model: Audi A4 B6 - Years 2000-2004
Part: Control arm

The suspension arm connects the frame to the struts, but if it bends due to an impact, wears out, or breaks, it will be necessary to replace it, as a defective arm can lead to a dangerous loss of vehicle control. This is not a very complicated job, and if you can do it yourself, you will save a good amount of money. Position the car on a completely flat surface and engage a gear. Take the jack and place it under the axle that needs replacement, then slowly raise the car. You will need to detach the stabilizer link from the arm without making sudden movements. Once the joint is removed, the suspension arm will be right in front of you.

Installation of Upgraded Intercooler Radiator with Pipes

Lift the vehicle on suitable axle stands, remove the front wheels, and then the front bumper and grille. Proceed to remove the front headlights; drain the coolant, remove the intercooler radiator and the hoses connecting it to the intake system. Position the new intercooler radiator in the grille, temporarily securing it with cable ties, and mark with a marker the part of the metal that needs to be removed to allow the new hoses to pass through. Cut the marked portion of metal and apply a gasket to the edge. Remove the inner cover of the bumper and position it near the radiator to identify any interfering parts to eliminate: again, apply a gasket to the edge of the cut. Create brackets for securing the new radiator and proceed with the installation of the connecting pipes from the radiator to the intake, shaping and connecting them appropriately. Finally, reassemble the bumper, headlights, and grille.
