Description

Control Arms: Connect the wheel hub to the chassis. Allow for up-and-down wheel movement while maintaining alignment. Typically made of lightweight aluminum in Audi vehicles to reduce weight and improve performance. Ball Joints: Enable pivoting movement between the control arm and the wheel hub. Ensure smooth steering and suspension articulation. Shock Absorbers (Dampers): Control the bounce and motion of the suspension system. Help maintain tire contact with the road for better handling and ride comfort. Audi often uses advanced systems like adaptive dampers for dynamic ride control. Springs (Coil or Air): Support the weight of the vehicle and absorb shocks from the road. Some Audi models feature air suspension for adjustable ride height and comfort. Struts: Combine a shock absorber and a coil spring into a single unit. Provide structural support for the suspension and help absorb impacts. Anti-Roll Bars (Sway Bars): Connect the left and right wheels to reduce body roll during cornering. Improve stability and handling. Tie Rods: Connect the steering rack to the wheels. Ensure precise steering and alignment. Control Arm Bushings: Rubber or polyurethane components that reduce vibrations and allow smooth control arm movement. Wheel Bearings: Support the wheel's rotation and reduce friction between the wheel and the axle. Air Suspension Components (for Models with Adaptive Suspension): Air Springs: Replace traditional coil springs in air suspension systems. Air Compressor: Supplies air to the air springs. Height Sensors: Monitor and adjust ride height automatically.
