The upper control arm connects to the uppermost area of the front wheel and the lower control arm connects to the lower most area of the front wheel, with both arms then attaching to the frame of the car. In simple terms, control arms are the link that connects your front wheels to your car.
Symptoms of a Bad or Failing Control Arm AssemblySteering wheel vibration. One of the first symptoms commonly associated with bad control arms is steering wheel vibrations. ...Steering wandering. Another symptom commonly associated with bad or failing control arm assembly is steering wandering. ...Clunking noises.The control arm should be repaired or replaced as soon as there's any sign of damage, and control arm replacements costs are typically $117 - $306 for the majority of vehicles. The part itself will normally cost between $42 - $103, with labor time usually an hour or two.
The control arm bushings on your Audi receive the most pressure when you are braking or during heavy acceleration. These forces can be extreme and cause the rubber bushings to fatigue and crack. On most Audi models, a unique eight (8) control arm system is used with two upper arms and two lower arms per side.
If you are asking how long you can drive a car with a bad control arm bushing, you should know that it depends on how far the damage has gone. If you are talking on average, you should be able to go 96 kilometers to 128 kilometers. However, it is not safe to drive around with a damaged control arm bushing.

19 years old car with original arms and everything - First time i was trying to get the pinch bolt out more than month, then i cut the upper arms and after trying to get out lower arms cut even them, it was not easy to drill the bolt out so everything was a bit destroyed, so i bought everything new even the knuckle. Everything was great and new after a lot of work. After 600km one of upper arm ball joints failed and here i am again

Good job but the control arm bush bolts are supposed to be properly tightened when it’s got full load

Did you use any grease for the installment of the control arms?

Hello ✋🏻, i need your advise please. My ride is Audi A4 2006 2.0L ... I had a complete set of control arms replaced today (total 10pcs), and being aligned afterwards, but unfortunately i experienced a very stiff steering wheel. Any clue ?

On my car I replaced my rack and my power steering boost assist sensor was brittle and broke off, I forget what it’s called but it’s likely expensive or hard to find other than on a new rack
