Overview

It serves as a direct replacement for BMW part number 31120006482.
Show original supplier description
Engineered by Lemforder, the original supplier to BMW for many chassis components, this bushing meets all of BMW's original design, fitment, and performance requirements and is TUV approved. It features an updated design with more aluminum in the center compared to older plastic versions, which enhances its ability to limit bushing deflection and maintain strength. This control arm bushing is crucial for the front suspension's upper control arm, also known as the thrust arm or traction strut. When these bushings degrade or crack, they can lead to a loss of rigid connection, resulting in poor handling, uneven tire wear, clunking sounds, steering wheel vibrations, and banging noises over bumps. Replacing worn bushings is often a more cost-effective solution than replacing the entire control arm, provided the outer ball joint is still in good condition. It comes with two bushings, as BMW recommends replacing them in pairs. The product is manufactured in Brazil and carries a two-year warranty.
