Stabiliser links<br />

Problem:<br />

High stress applied on the stabiliser link ball head generates<br />

increased surface pressure and excessive joint play<br />

which requires premature stabiliser link replacement.<br />

Symptom:<br />

› Knocking noise at the front axle<br />

› Insufficient suspension stability<br />

Solution:<br />

› Increasing the ball head diameter of<br />

the stabiliser link<br />

› Reinforcing the link rod<br />

› Higher-grade lubricants<br />

› Wear-resistant boots<br />

› New plastic socket with pioneering<br />

clip-on retaining latches to ensure it fits<br />

snugly in the steel housing<br />

Advantage:<br />

Endurance tests performed at the Hamburg Helmut Schmidt University<br />

yielded impressive performance results: no evidence of joint play after<br />

1,000,000 test cycles. As another special feature the new clip-on plastic<br />

socket is absolutely free of welding burr. Thanks to this unique and<br />

innovative technology <strong>MEYLE</strong>-<strong>HD</strong> stabiliser links now last even longer.<br />

Technically advanced <strong>MEYLE</strong>-<strong>HD</strong> stabiliser links<br />

can easily be identified thanks to the<br />

top-grade plastic socket with pioneering<br />

clip-on design and the prominently<br />

displayed <strong>MEYLE</strong>-<strong>HD</strong> logo.<br />

<strong>MEYLE</strong>-<strong>HD</strong> <strong>parts</strong><br />

for new <strong>BMW</strong> 1, 3, 5<br />

and 7 series models<br />

<strong>BMW</strong>


Quality that simply lasts longer!<br />

When you choose <strong>MEYLE</strong> you choose quality-tested <strong>automotive</strong><br />

<strong>spare</strong> <strong>parts</strong> from a German manufacturer. Because only <strong>parts</strong> with<br />

the <strong>MEYLE</strong> brand logo are genuinely engineered in the <strong>MEYLE</strong><br />

laboratories and manufactured within our own production network.<br />

With our comprehensive range and core competency in steering &<br />

suspension <strong>parts</strong>, rubber-metal <strong>parts</strong> and brake <strong>parts</strong> we meet the<br />

highest demands.<br />

Technically optimised <strong>MEYLE</strong>-<strong>HD</strong> <strong>parts</strong> (<strong>HD</strong> meaning heavy-duty)<br />

even outshine their original equipment counter<strong>parts</strong>. To restate<br />

our quality promise we offer a 4-year warranty on our range of <strong>HD</strong><br />

<strong>parts</strong> for passenger cars and vans and 2 years of warranty on all<br />

other <strong>MEYLE</strong> components. We offer an exceptionally wide range of<br />

<strong>MEYLE</strong>-<strong>HD</strong> products suitable for all current <strong>BMW</strong> 1, 3, 5 and 7 series<br />

models – for example tie rod ends, control arms and stabiliser links.<br />

Tie rod ends<br />

Problem:<br />

Tie rod ends are wear and tear <strong>parts</strong> which are subjected to exceptionally<br />

high stress and load levels. As a result, very high surface pressure is applied<br />

on the ball heads which makes them wear out prematurely.<br />

Symptoms:<br />

› Noise emissions and steering play<br />

Solution:<br />

› Increasing the ball head diameter of<br />

the tie rod end from 28mm to 30mm<br />

Advantage:<br />

› Streamlined stock management thanks to universal product design:<br />

<strong>MEYLE</strong>-<strong>HD</strong> tie rod ends for <strong>BMW</strong> models are engineered to fit axial<br />

joints on both ZF and TRW steering gears<br />

› Improved load-carrying capacity yields significantly longer service life<br />

› Wear-resistant boots<br />

› Exclusive <strong>MEYLE</strong> value-added service:<br />

tie rod end assemblies come with self-locking special nuts<br />

Ø 28 mm Ø 30 mm<br />

Control arms<br />

Problem:<br />

High dynamic loads and mechanical stress frequently cause control<br />

arms to wear prematurely. Hydro-filled control arm bushings often fail<br />

to meet long-term durability standards – hydro-fluid leakage occurs.<br />

Symptoms:<br />

› Noise emissions and reduced driving and braking safety<br />

› Destroyed bushing<br />

Solution:<br />

› Replacing the hydro mount with a full-rubber mount<br />

Advantage:<br />

› No leakage thanks to the use of high-grade full-rubber mounts<br />

in <strong>MEYLE</strong>-<strong>HD</strong> control arms. Service life is significantly increased<br />

without compromising safety and driving comfort.<br />
