Steering Idler arm Volvo Amazon (B16)

Play in the steering wheel and unstable steering at low speed can point to wear in the idler arm bearing – a common checkpoint on early 122 cars with the B16 engine. When the joint develops play it affects the entire steering linkage and should be inspected when overhauling the front axle.

This category gathers the wear and mounting parts that belong to the idler arm. The group includes shim, split pin, screw, grease nipple and lock nut – parts that are often replaced together when the arm is taken apart and re-adjusted.

Since the B16 cars are among the earliest 122 model years, certain details in the front axle differ from later versions, so check the fit against your car. Regular lubrication via the nipple keeps the joint tight and extends its service life.
