Detailed Description

Delphi TA5113 is engineered for steering service on Mercedes-Benz C300, C350, C250, C230, E350, and E400 models in the left outer position. Delphi applies OE-level dimensional and material analysis to help ensure the aftermarket part matches the original steering component more closely, supporting proper alignment and steering response. The bent design, steel housing, rubber dust boot, and pre-greased construction are specified for direct replacement service.

Delphi tests steering components across extreme temperature ranges below -40 degrees C and above 120 degrees C, and exposes parts to 720 hours of salt spray to evaluate durability in harsh conditions. This part cross-references Mevotech Supreme MS10664 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Loose or imprecise steering feel at the left front wheel
• Clunking or play from a worn outer tie rod end
• Uneven tire wear caused by steering linkage wear
• Alignment issues after steering component replacement
• Restoration of steering linkage integrity on Mercedes-Benz C-Class and E-Class vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify left outer position, thread direction, and stud dimensions before installation. After replacement, perform a professional wheel alignment to confirm steering wheel center and toe settings. Inspect the mating steering linkage components for wear so the new tie rod end is not installed against a damaged part.

Quality Assurance

Delphi uses OE-focused engineering and durability testing for its steering portfolio, including temperature cycling and salt-spray exposure, to support consistent aftermarket performance. Part number TA5113 is built as a standard replacement steering component for the listed Mercedes-Benz applications.
