Product Information
Referred to as a wishbone, includes ball joint and bushing
Control arms are a common replacement item on higher mileage BMW's. In many cases the inner bushing can fail causing excessive suspension play, knocking noises, and alignment problems. Additionally, the integrated ball joint can also wear out causing many of the same issues including noises and suspension play.
FCP recommends replacing control arms in matched pairs for the best service life and performance.
Control arms are crucial link in a vehicle's suspension connecting the suspension to a vehicle's subframe. These pieces are usually hinged to allow for suspension to travel and articulate as the vehicle rides over obstructions in the road and while the vehicle turns. Many vehicles such as those with independent suspensions have multiple links and feature several connection points and arms to offer better ride quality and comfort.
As bushings and joints in a control arm begin to wear you may notice a looseness feel in your suspension. And while many arms have replaceable and serviceable individual components, many still require the replacement of the entire arm. Below are signs of when a replacement control arm may be needed:
Suspension Control Arm and Ball Joint Assembly Failure Symptoms- Play in suspension joints where these arms meet the subframe and/or knuckle
- Buckling noise emanating from the suspension
- Uneven tire wear
- Inability to properly align vehicle
- Shutter or vibration coming from the steering wheel at highway speed
- Wandering or pulling sensation from side to side felt on the steering wheel
