Audi Q4 e-tron Front Lower Ball Joint
This Febi front lower ball joint fits the Audi Q4 e-tron and also the CUPRA Born, Ford Capri, Ford Explorer EV, Skoda Elroq, Skoda Enyaq iV, Volkswagen ID.3, ID.4, ID.5 and ID.7. It fits the front axle, left or right, in the lower position.
The ball joint links the control arm to the steering knuckle. Wear shows up as a knock over bumps, uneven tyre wear or vague steering. Because many of these cars use driver assistance cameras and radar, a worn joint can also upset alignment. A new joint restores a tight connection so the wheel tracks true again.
The Febi part number is 183626. It is supplied with nuts. Outside thread is M12 x 1.5. It replaces Audi, CUPRA, Skoda and VW numbers 1EA 407 365 C and 1EA 407 365 A, and Ford numbers 2 720 963 and VWR2KA-3395-CA.
Febi is a brand of the bilstein group, a German parts maker that supplies replacement parts for cars and vans across the world. Each part is made to match the original in fit and function, so it fits without modification.
