Control arm bushes are rubber-metal joints used for connection of running gear elements and for absorption of vibrations which occur when the car is in motion.

4 tips on control arm bushes operation

• Make it routine to inspect the components visually every 50,000 km, to replace them – every 100,000 km; of course, if such necessity doesn’t appear earlier.
• Do not leave the car on a parking with a steering wheel turned to one side to the full.
• Regularly clean bushes from dirt.
• For lubrication of the joints, use only those products which cause no destructive effect to rubber elements.

Defects of control arm bushes, their causes and signs

• Wear-out, hardening or destruction of the elastic insert. Under the influence of moisture, dirt and thawing agents, due to absence or lack of lubricant, rubber or polyurethane lose their service properties, dry up and crack. Often, this has negative impact on car steerability and driving comfort, and manifests itself in creak.
• Free play. Usually it appears as a result of driving on poor-quality roads or too active driving style. Also it can be caused by low quality of the component. Knocking in the suspension during driving, and uneven tyres wear also indicate that a gap appeared in the bush of the independent suspension control arm.
• Deformation. As a rule, it is the result of collision or unqualified actions during installation. Its signs are the same as for the other defects.
