TRQ Front Inner and Outer Tie Rod Set Compatible with Audi - Direct

In this review the TRQ Front Inner and Outer Tie Rod Set is evaluated for Audi owners who need a full front steering tie rod replacement. The bottom line: this 4-piece kit is a practical, direct fit OE replacement for multiple Audi A4, A5, S4, S5, Q5 and allroad model years, and it is best for DIY mechanics or shops wanting a complete front inner and outer replacement without mixing parts. The reviewer found the kit installs cleanly and matches factory dimensions, making it a sensible option when a matched pair of inner and outer tie rods is required.

Key Features

• Direct Fit: Designed as an OE replacement so each piece installs without major modification or extra machining on compatible Audi models.
• Complete 4-Piece Kit: Includes two front inner and two front outer tie rods so both driver and passenger sides are serviced in one purchase.
• Vehicle Specific Fitment: Fitment notes cover a wide range of Audi years and trims so buyers can check compatibility before ordering.
• Aftermarket Reference Numbers: Multiple cross reference numbers are provided to help confirm fit with service manuals or parts lookups.
• Value for Money: Customers report the set delivers the required steering linkage parts at a lower cost than buying OEM items separately.

Who It's For

The TRQ tie rod set is best for Audi owners and independent mechanics working on 2009-2016 A4 models, 2008-2017 A5 and S5 models, 2009-2012 Q5, 2013-2016 allroad and related S4/RS5 variants who need a matched pair of inner and outer front tie rods. It is particularly useful when both sides should be replaced to restore steering geometry and eliminate play.

Shoppers looking for guaranteed long-term factory longevity or backed warranty service from an OEM dealer may want to consider dealer parts instead, since some buyers reported concerns about durability and occasional defective inner tie rod ends arriving in the package.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Complete set covers both driver and passenger sides, saving time sourcing parts.
• Several customers praised build quality and ease of installation for a straightforward replacement.

Cons
