At about 95k miles on my '99.5 A6Q, squeaks and groans indicated that one or two of my control arm bushings were shots. So I bought a whole kit of Meyle arms and tie rod ends, and had my mechanic install them. All squeaks and groans were gone, and the whole front end felt tighter, like new.

But now, at 105k miles, I have some of the same noises coming back. My mechanic checked and said that one of the arm/bushings seemed to have failed already, so I got a replacement (under warranty) and had him install it. But now several seem to be noisy.

Is anyone aware of problems with the Meyle parts?

 

have them replaced under the warranty by a garage, the warranty company will tell you which one to go to

 

Tyr using FIBI/BILSTEIN suspension parts.

 

Thanks for the suggestion; where can I find information on FIBI parts? Maybe you mean FEBI, is that correct?
