VW Polo / Lupo / Skoda Fabia I / Audi A2 Steering Rack 6Q1419055G

Product overview

This steering rack (rack and pinion assembly) is a new replacement for a group of Volkswagen Group small cars, with references including 6Q1419055G, 6Q1419055M, 6Q1419055P, 5Z1419061, 6Q0423831 and 5U1422055E/G/K.

Technical specifications

Installation requirements

Steering rack replacement is a safety-critical job and must be carried out by a qualified technician. Hydraulic systems need flushing, refilling and bleeding after fitting, and a four-wheel alignment is required once the new rack is installed. Transfer or replace tie rod ends as necessary, and inspect the steering column joint for wear while access is available.

Fitment checks before ordering

Small VW Group cars used manual, hydraulic and electro-hydraulic racks, and some differ between left- and right-hand drive. Confirm the number on your existing rack and your vehicle's steering side, or send us your VIN, before ordering.

Package inclusions

1 x steering rack assembly for the selected option. Contents as pictured; tie rod ends, boots and mounting hardware are not included unless stated.
