Detailed Description

The steel body, dust boot, and greaseable construction support routine suspension service where a worn ball joint can affect steering feel and front-end stability. This part cross-references OE-style numbers such as 7M0407365A and 1026002 for the same application.
What This Part Helps Address
- Front suspension looseness or play
- Clunking or knocking from the lower control arm area
- Uneven tire wear related to ball joint wear
- Steering wander or reduced directional control
- Inspection failure caused by excessive joint movement
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the vehicle is a 2002-2008 Volkswagen Sharan with front lower fitment before installation. Inspect the surrounding suspension components, control arm mounting points, and fasteners for wear or damage before replacing the ball joint. Because this is a threaded, bolt-in style part with a tapered stud, proper alignment and torque procedures should be followed after installation.
Quality Assurance
Dorman states this ball joint is precision-engineered and rigorously tested to provide a reliable OE replacement for the specified vehicle application. Part number 538-832 is built to meet the demands of routine suspension service on the Volkswagen Sharan front lower position.
