Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this part compatible with non-power steering models?
No, this specific part (2225103) is designed for vehicles equipped with power steering systems.
Does this product come with a new lock nut?
Yes, LEMFÖRDER components typically include the necessary hardware for installation; however, always verify the package contents upon arrival.
Should I replace both tie rod ends at the same time?
It is highly recommended to replace both the left and right tie rod ends simultaneously to ensure even steering response and longevity.
What tools do I need for installation?
You will need a jack and jack stands, a socket set, an open-end wrench for the lock nut, and a ball joint separator tool.
Can I perform the alignment myself after installing?
While 'string alignments' are possible, it is strongly advised to have a professional technician perform a laser alignment to ensure vehicle safety.
Troubleshooting
Steering wheel remains off-center after replacement
The tie rod length was not set perfectly during installation. A professional wheel alignment is required to calibrate the toe-in/toe-out settings.
Difficulty separating the tie rod from the steering knuckle
The taper fit can become seized over time. Use a dedicated ball joint fork or puller tool rather than excessive force, which may damage the steering knuckle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This component is compatible with the front right axle of vehicles including the Audi A3, VW Golf IV, Skoda Octavia, and Seat Leon equipped with power steering.
Installation Steps:
- Raise the vehicle safely and remove the front right wheel.
- Apply penetrating oil to the tie rod end threads and the lock nut.
- Remove the cotter pin or locking nut securing the tie rod end to the steering knuckle.
- Use a ball joint separator tool to release the taper fit.
- Unscrew the old tie rod end, measuring the distance from the rack to ensure the new part is installed at a similar length to maintain approximate alignment.

- Crucial: Schedule a professional four-wheel alignment immediately to prevent premature tire wear.
